Meh. Don't really care about Texas A&M. Don't care about him anymore either. A perfect fit.
I feel bad for Jason Thompson though. He follows him to Utah, sits out a year and practically loses an entire year of eligibility, only to see his o coordinator leave once he becomes eligible. Poor dude. I hope he still finds success.
I hate to play the what if game... But based on our qb play this year and the suspected lack of confidence in next years group (signing jc qb's, changing positions, etc.) I can only imagine how different the state of the wyoming football team would be if he stayed put.

Why?? He left a program where he was a likely 3 year starter and all but guaranteed to start his sophomore year to go somewhere with 8 QBs and probably never play... I don't really feel bad for him, he transferred away from Wyoming and a guaranteed opportunity to follow an ass hole coach. I mean, does it suck for him? Yeah, it does, but I don't know if I would feel bad for a kid that left our program that was going to be given a chance to play

I agree that I don't really feel bad especially because he has already played and is likely going to be a contender for the starting job at Utah next season.
Sucks for us more than jason. We go bowling last season with Jason instead of 4-8
I read the A&M staff was impressed with his spread run schemes at Utah and Wyoming. Booker and Wick are fine backs, but I was never impressed with the the east/ west style running plays he would dial up. He also never really developed a great offensive line at Wyoming. i must be missing something. As far as Jason, i saw him play in the Bowl game. i assumed he had to sit out after transfering. What's the deal with that?laxwyo said:

Fair enough. I guess I just feel bad because DC totally betrayed him. He had a great opportunity here, it must've taken a pretty impressive recruiting pitch from Christensen to pry him away and make him lose a year of eligibility. Now the guy who's promised him this new opportunity is bolting just as he becomes eligible to play.
Of course, he's quoted as saying that it was his dream to play qb in the PAC 12 and he had family play at Utah. If he went there because Christensen convinced him and made false promises, I feel bad for the guy. But if he transferred simply because he didn't want to be at wyoming, I agree with you. I couldn't care less what happens to him

DC will be fine at Texas A&M.
He doesnt have to try and convince kids to come to Laramie. He is convincing kids to go to Texas A&M and the SEC. Recruiting just got a whole bunch easier for him. He will get the line he needs. And the RBs.

No one was as surprised as me how well Utah did this season considering the coaching shit show they rolled out.
However, with the PAC12 looking as if it wants to be the new WAC, all O and no D, Christensen didn't deliver the goods. With his performance this year, he was bound to be fired or demoted. He simply jumped on the first train out of Dodge. In conference, Utah was last in the majority of offensive statistical categories, total offense, passing offense, pass efficiency. They only out scored the offensive juggernaughts that are Oregon State and Stanford. He hitched his wagon to the fact that they somehow managed to gain an extra couple dozen rushing yards per game than last season and probably sold himself to Texas A&M as some sort of O-line and running guru. With Missouri literally rushing over Texas A&M this year, maybe they thought there was some kind of connection with Christensen.
Head Coach-Offensive Coordinator-Position Coach-I love the career path. Although he is ending up in better conferences each time... Who knows, maybe he follows his little padawan Arroyo to the next higher conference, the NFL. He can't fuck that up any worse than Arroyo did with Tampa Bay this year. It's so good that these useless twats are far removed from our team.
If ACS gets a promotion next season at Missouri are he and Christensen on the same rung of the coaching ladder?

Clearly you've never been to College Station. SEC definitely helps, and plenty of program prestige to help recruit to A&M, but College Station...yikes, not anything to write home about besides A&M itself.
