Questions of culture and buy-ins for Jimbo Fisher, Texas A&M after loss to Appalachian State
Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher, talking to his team after the spring game, says players have 'bought in' to his culture.COLLEGE STATION — Texas A&M senior receiver Ainias Smith said he noticed a troubling tendency among some of his teammates prior to the Aggies’ most jarring loss in decades.
“We were on time for everything the next day,” explained offensive lineman Layden Robinson, as if that was unusual for a Sunday after a game. “That shows the commitment of everybody just saying, ‘Hey, we have to get back, and we have to get on our stuff.’ … Everybody was on time for ‘stretch and stride’ and treatment.”
It’s evident coach Jimbo Fisher must revamp his plodding offense to have a shot at a title in coming seasons and capitalizing on the recruiting of five- and four-star prospects the past few years. What’s becoming increasingly evident is Fisher, a whiz at inspiring one-liners and deeper motivational messages, also must reset the mindset — the culture he’s built over five seasons at A&M — if the sagging Aggies aren’t going to drop games to Appalachian State.
