Texas A&M Job

[ragincajun97]

Lots of chatter of A&M wanting Deggs. I can promise you Deggs would not turn that money/job down. None of us would.

I’m kind of afraid.

This is a great recap of what Coach Deggs has in place for the upcoming year

Most likely A&M will try poaching a head coach from another SEC school or other P4 before dipping into G5 ranks. Money not an object for the Aggies.

So was the Habetz for Glasco decision all made before it all happened or we knew about it? I am beginning to think so.

posted this before and this is a logical explanation to why things moved so fast with Jut leaving to take a high school baseball head coaching job, Glasco taking the Texas Tech job and the quick hire of Alyson as the Louisiana Head Softball Coach

it may well have been Glasco leaving because Louisiana wanted Alyson as it’s head softball coach then Alyson becoming the head softball coach because Glasco took the Texas Tech job

regardless, hopefully Louisiana does not ignore the NIL warning which is clearly on the table and steps up to give Alyson the financial support to be competitive in the current climate

just a good coach or even a great coach will no longer cut it

Deggs basically said how hard it has become and that it will continue to get harder and harder in the future with the big boys out there ready, willing and able to buy his players

I hope Coach Deggs gets the job. Would be life-changing $$, and he would have everything he needs to compete for national championships in this new era.

But, while he is building something good here, A&M has a lot of egos to soothe, and they probably have to go whale hunting first.

Thanks for the idiot comment, stay classy.

When you correct someone, try to be right.

Us outsiders are still in the information gathering stage, so there is still no reason to call someone an idiot.

Too specific of an indictment.

An effort into trying to be right is good way to go though, and part of trying to figure things out.

we should NEVER hope any of our coaches or players get poached

however, once done, we should appreciate the level at which that may indicate our program has risen

Robichaux once said he either hoped or was happy when one of his assistants got poached.

I firmly believe it was the latter . . .

We certainly don’t have to worry about our men’s basketball coach ever being poached.

I do hope Dez is able to get to a point where a P4 program is wanting to poach him.

we should always want a rising star, whether coach or player, to stay with the program as long as possible

while being poached may be a defining event in terms of identifying the level to which the program has risen and in most instances is a positive identifying event as to the height and extent of benefit from that Coach or player, we should always strive to keep and continue receiving that benefit on the field until the longest possible moment as the poaching does absolutely nothing to quantify what we are getting from that Coach or player, it just ends it.
