Senior offensive lineman Layden Robinson speaks to the media before the first practice
The excitement is brewing in College Station as the Aggies kick off the season with their first practice for the 2023 football season. Jimbo and Layden sat down and gave us a little bit of what to preview of what to expect and what they learned after a below .500 finish caused them to miss out on a bowl game.
If you want to check out what Coach Fisher said first, we have his quotes ready for you at Aggies Wire. But be sure to return to get the pulse of the team from the perspective of a player’s point of view. Overall, the common theme for the past few months has been the offense will probably be more dynamic due to the hiring of Bobby Petrino and the young talent now having an off-season college workout program.
The Aggie faithful will not have to wait much longer before we get to see the team in action, but until then, we will continue to provide you updates leading up to the start of the football season.

Layden Robinson speaks on his personal growth
“I worked on myself mentally. I worked on myself physically. I got down in weight… In the spring when I cut weight, it was the best spring I have had.”
The team had a reality check and are using it as fuel
“We got woke up last season… We took that into the summer.”
Layden Robinson on Steve Addazio and the improvements made
“It’s always big going into the season cause you know the coach. If you ask him, we have made tremendous strides.”
The young guys are ready to step up and youth is no longer an excuse
“Guy aren’t young anymore. They have played… That will bring the best out of our group.”
Robinson knows what they need to do to be successful
“We have to make sure we have chemistry and bear down every play. It starts today. Every rep is full speed.”
Will the pressure bust the pipes or create diamonds?
“As a team, we don’t have no pressure. We will take this season one game at time… We are focused on New Mexico. We don’t need to worry about anything else right now.”
