2. The Aggies just ran off a winning coach

Looking at the Texas A&M job from afar, Jimbo Fisher has to realize that he’d be on somewhat of a short leash in College Station. Texas A&M hired up-and-coming head coach Kevin Sumlin from Houston in 2012 and he put up nothing but winning seasons in College Station.

In fact, he finished his Texas A&M career with a 51-26 overall record and was 25-23 in conference play. He only lost three games in non-conference action, but what doomed him was the November lulls each season. His team seemingly couldn’t keep up for a full three months, dropping off in the last months of each campaign.

However, he was a winner. He won 11 games his first season and built up sky-high expectations for every year after. He won nine games the next and then eight, and then fans began to grow restless. He had two more eight-win seasons and then found himself on the hot seat.

Could you imagine what would have happened to Jimbo in College Station if he won a national title and then a few years later went just 6-6? They would be at his throat. Winning in the SEC is difficult enough and the Aggies ran off a winning coach. Jimbo won’t want to be next.
