Pretty much where they belong though M in the SEC would probably be #6/#7.

For me, I don't see how Mack Brown has lasted this long.

Because he had Vince Young and Colt McCoy. It just goes to show you how scoring big on one or two guys at the QB position can make a coach look really darn good.

Even when Texas was churning out 11-win seasons, they never looked like a very well coached team to me. When McCoy was there, their running game was always crap, and they won all of their games with VY by playing backyard football.

I would say #5. I have no problem putting them ahead of South Carolina.

Mack Brown never was a good coach; agreed.

Mack probably would've retired after last year if (then) HC-in-waiting Will Muschamp hadn't opted for Florida the year before.

Maybe he'll jump back to UT after this season anyway?

I would grant you he's not a great top tier coach but you don't land a job coaching a top level program without at least being a good coach at some level. Plus he's from the nearest college town to my birthplace.

Texas Head Football Coach Mack Brown has fired his defensive coordinator this morning. He said that his current coach's performance on Saturday was "unacceptable".

In his place, Brown has announced that he is hiring. ....

Oklahoma State AD issues statements in anticipation of Sports Illustrated expose that will pillory his school

I apologize to all the athletic directors in the conference for what’s about to happen and what’s about to be said about a member institution. That reflects on everyone, all of our brothers and peers. We’re very remorseful about that.


I reached out, and I couldn’t call all of our supporters…I’d really like to talk to every season-ticket holder we got, and we’re about to sell a record number of season tickets – we have a responsibility to those people because they’re going to suffer from this as well.

[Tony G]

Good initial response on the PR front. Sounds like the cowboys are in a box canyon with the top all lined with irate native americans.

I'm sure this is just a mistake.. Les is clean.. he'd never do this at LSU either.

if it is all true and happened under his watch, I hope the NCAA actually punishes him and LSU.. yes.. I said that. Not just cause I hate SEC... rather, a lesson about hiring coaches.

but I'm dreaming.. I know

[Tony G]

I would love to see personal penalties assessed to coaches who violate the rules. They would stay with them till served no matter where they went. Go as an assistant in the NFL and come back? Your suspension is still waiting.
