I feel like the board has been nothing but aggy junk this week, but some pretty crazy stuff here from Warchant, not to mention some nice aggy trolling:

The most bizarre aspect of this whole drama is why would an established head coach leave Florida State for Texas A&M? There is really no debate that FSU is a top-10, if not top-five, college football program.

In the last 25 years, the Seminoles have earned three national championships, 14 conference titles and 13 top-10 seasons. During this same time, the Aggies have just one conference title (1998 in the Big 12) and three top-10 finishes -- that’s it! You have to go all the back nearly 80 years (1939) to find the last time A&M claimed a national championship.

The easy answer as to why a coach would leave for a lesser job is money. Getting a $75 million guaranteed contract clearly played a major role.
