Strong...Herman....Meyer....none can overcome the entitlement mentality that covers that tee shirt culture. "Doing less with more, that's how we roll!" Oh and many thanks to texas for filling in for the once popular aggy joke. Well deserved!

Asked Grant Teaff about Urban Myer. He said he did not like him. Interesting
Your point is well taken, and I admit my error.Jorkel said:Pecos 45 said:
My viewpoint is that Urban Meyer will turn down the UT job because of his health, his good salary at Fox Sports and his wife.
She doesn't want him to have another aneurysm.
And coaching in Austin will bring that on.
But looking at this as a semi-neutral observer, I don't think they should be canning Herman in his third season, with a winning record. His numbers aren't Charlie Strong level, and he has had the misfortune of coaching aggressively, without being able to convert. (4th down in particular)
I do not think he is a bad coach, but 7-3, or 8-4 will get you fired in Austin.
UT's biggest issue has been that they don't get the level of play from their QBs that Tech, ISU, TCU and Baylor has enjoyed since Mack Brown left.
Not seeing a Heisman candidate in the past 15 years, whereas Baylor had RGIII, Tech had Mahomes and OU had Baker Mayfield.
IMHO, they are a QB away from challenging for the national title, but luck is a hard thing to capture.
10 years sure but 15 years they did have Colt McCoy and he was a great college QB and Heisman runner up.

Well said. That "fairly reliable source" apparently not fair or reliable. So, nothing to "take to the bank" today and probably not this year, unless they lose to KSt which with rumored opt outs is not impossible.
UT is too dang "woke" to allow themselves to hire Art. There will be test balloons that will be shot down with malice.Pecos 45 said:
People love to post "I've heard from a reliable source" because it makes it sound like they were in the room where it happened.
It's all ego.
It's Wednesday, Tom Herman is still there.
And I still think they may make a run at Art Briles because Urban is going nowhere.
(That is just my OPINION. No "reliable sources.")

Art will have to catch on and "reform" at a place like SFA or Texas State first. Then, Katie bar the door!

And Urban will be just another ut head coach that does less with more. It's how that worthless school rolls.
I'm pretty sure the rest of us we'll regret them hiring Meyer. He would likely have that program looking on the field like the richest program in the country.
It would be an awful look to see UT in highlighter burnt orange against Baylor in their banana yellow. Yuk !!!

Correct. Would be awful. But nobody wants that either.Quote:

It would be an interesting hire if true. Will probably be $100mm contract. Look, you have to admit the guy wins everywhere he as been. The question I have: is Texas prepared for the controversy? With the winning, Urban Meyer teams bring controversy, often with player off the field behavior. Urban turned down Notre Dame for Florida because ND had too high admission standards.RR/BV said:
So texas will pay 20 million Herman and assistants and hire a cat that has players in jail 24/7. They want to win something fierce.
