Meh. Agree to disagree. Look at what he did at TT when he had all the rejects who didn’t get to go to UT, OU, aTm. Talent like Harrell and Crabtree. Big difference. I guarantee you he could have taken our roster this past season and done a hell of a lot better than 6-6 BUT we disagree.It’s partly that he wasn’t wanted at those places, yes. But that’s because he’s proven that he has a ceiling, perhaps even self imposed&. I think at every stop he’s been consistent in that no one ever predicted him to win the conference, but also no one wanted to face his teams. The problem with his style is that when it’s on, there may be no stopping it. But when it’s off, which it inevitably will at some point with 18-21 year old college players, it’s ugly. Similar to what you saw from ut this year. And he never changed because I think he just liked to coach. It was never about winning a title or being the best. Just coaching football. Nothing wrong with that, but at a high profile place he’d be gone inside of 4 years. The whole James kid situation—which was complete garbage—also hung over his head.
