Hey, remember when Texas A&M really meant something in football?  They had real pride in the program, had some interesting if not “cool” traditions, and were known for some excellent defense?

Well, apparently Texas A&M no longer takes football seriously.

COLLEGE STATION — Texas A&M apparently will not waste much time in naming a replacement for football coach Dennis Franchione, who resigned under pressure after Friday’s win over Texas in the regular-season finale.

A new coach could be introduced as early as Monday but more likely Tuesday.

Texans assistant head coach/offensive coordinator Mike Sherman, a former A&M offensive line coach and head coach of the Green Bay Packers, appears to be the leader in a three-man race.

Others under consideration are former Notre Dame coach and A&M defensive coordinator Bob Davie and Boise State coach Chris Petersen.
