Jimbo Fisher said he does not know anything about the collectives at Texas A&M. He then went on to say he is 100% sure that they followed all the Texas laws and didn’t break any rules. How would he know that, then?
Can’t have it both ways, Jimbo.
Montana Fouts the last person on the field. She’s talked to and signed everything the young Rhoads Ragers have asked for. She’s walked from the 1st base dugout all the way over to the 3rd base line.
