To all the Aggie fans out there, we can officially proclaim those sweet words: football season has arrived! Texas A&M enters a pivotal 2023 season as they look to rebound from an underwhelming campaign a season ago. Before the regular season kicks off, the Maroon and White will first get to work through fall practice.
Before the team held its first fall season practice on Wednesday afternoon, head coach Jimbo Fisher and right guard Layden Robinson spoke with the media. As has been the case throughout much of talkin’ season, Fisher spoke on a variety of topics, such as the quarterback competition between Conner Weigman and Max Johnson, his analysis of the current linebacker and offensive line depth, and naturally, his thoughts on offensive coordinator Bobby Petrino’s prominent personality.
While this team’s play on the field will ultimately determine the season’s trajectory, understanding the mindset heading into the pivotal fall action proves just as valuable. As we witnessed a year ago, failing to buckle down on the fundamentals and lack of the right demeanor can easily turn a promising season sideways.
Here is everything Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher said ahead of the start of fall football practice.
