Official.....Sark new coach at Texas....Will coach Bama in the NCG

Him staying with Bama to coach in the NCG would be worrisome if I was a Texas fan.

 

[Border Vol]

And who will be OC at bama

They could always hire Chris Weinke

 

[DULL_BOY]

Sarkisian will light up Oklahoma while at Texas....his offensive genius will not be matched by Riley. CFB is about power offenses with good defenses...BIG 12 don’t even play defense...perfect hire for that situation.

Texas fires coach for 32-18 record. Hires 45-32 replacement.

Yes, but they are not hiring the old drunk Cutty Sark.
He has dried out while at Bama and is now a nice mellow Merlot.

Malzahn.

Well played by Texas administration.
You don’t fire your current coach until you have hired your new one.
Wish that Tennessee would operate that way.

Yep. Whether one agrees with the hire or not, it’s hard not to envy the way they did it, no long, drawn out, embarrassing search.

[lilesrt]

We dont even have those. 30+ point blowouts, NCAA investigations, players busted for being armed and slinging dope. We are the biggest dumpster fire I’ve heard of in recent memory.

Truth.

 

[Orange931]

If Sark is the best Texas can do; then that job is a lot worse than I thought.

A&M has been the better job in that state since they made the jump to the SEC. Texas will never be top dog again and that’s why they tried their hardest to keep A&M away from us.

 

[rocytop2624]

Yep.

And I would be willing to take the chance again with Herman.

Maybe he will be around next year.

 

[lilesrt]

He's very likely hinging his tenure as AD on Pruitt improving.

And it doesn’t have to be this way. Fire Pruitt and show a sense of urgency in finding the right coach. That’s all most of us want.

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

Maybe he will be around next year.

With the buyout he is getting he could definitely take a season off I would think.

 

[volcop1]

we got their fired basketball coach and he's doing good, let's hire their football coach

 

[JonGrudensAgent]

Whoever lands the Texas job is walking into a plum recruiting hot spot.

I think that got Herman into trouble a little.

Currently 17th in recruiting and losing Ewers to Ohio St probably got their boosters ticked off.

 

[GoVols64]

Texas has enough money to fire and hire a new head coach every season along with buyouts and still would have more money leftover than Tennessee.

Unfortunately this is true. One of the biggest money pools from Alumni out there and all very vocal about it from what I hear.

 

[JohnnyJava]

All you fans who want a new coach and want another rebuild are welcome to move on from Tennessee and find you a new team.

Obvious troll with four posts. Trolls are weak human beings.

 

[Tnphil]

And who will be OC at bama

Probably Herman...LOL

Bama fans saying they will probably go after the OC for the JAX Jags.?

 

[Boston Vol]

I think that got Herman into trouble a little.

Currently 17th in recruiting and losing Ewers to Ohio St probably got their boosters ticked off.

Not just Ewers, he lost the Brockermeyer twins to Bama this year. Their dad was an All American at Texas and they were considered heavy Texas leans until late spring last year. They’re both highly regarded but one is a 5* and the top offensive lineman in the country.

 

[onevol74]

And who will be OC at bama

Probably Jeremy Pruitt. He knows how to help teams score.

 

[onevol74]

Malzahn.

You think he is the coaching rehab program?

 

[saxvol]

Herman said that while fans might cheer on black student-athletes on the field, off the field fans can treat them entirely differently. “Can the average fan relate? No, they can’t,” In an interview with Austin American-Statesman’s Brian Davis. “There’s a double standard maybe a little bit. We’re going to pack 100,000 people into DKR and millions watch on TV that are predominantly white — not all of them certainly, but most of ’em white. We’re gonna cheer when they score touchdowns, and we’re gonna hug our buddy when they get sacks or an interception. But we gonna let them date our daughter? Are we going to hire them in a position of power in our company? That’s the question I have for America. You can’t have it both ways. And if you’re going to cheer them and love them for three-and-a-half hours a Saturday in the fall, you better have the same feelings for them off the field, because they’re human beings. They deserve the same amount of respect and human rights that all of us do in this country when we agreed on the social contract to be a member of the United States.”

Well, no thanks, he sounds like a weirdo.

 

[Border Vol]

Well, no thanks, he sounds like a weirdo.

He sounds like a real headcase like Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich.

 

[MaTaLa]

People keep debating $$ and I think it's big $$ egos where the past 15 yrs of suckage have come from.
"Let 'em eat cake"

 

[VOL-TIL-I-DIE]

Go pull for bama they seem to win all the time then your all your problems will be solved. Just get tired of everyone bashing the coach. Coaches can only do so much and then it’s up to the players. They either want it or they don’t.

Yeah what he said! Pruitt has done so much for this program. I firmly believe we’re on the cuspid of something great with Coach Jeremy Pruitt leading the big orange.
