Texas wants a permanent AD. Patterson was such a complete disastrous hire like Brandon from Michigan.
They hired Perrin as permanent AD. He's directly involved with this fiasco.
Didn't somebody in the Texas admin say something recently about how they are keeping Strong on because they didn't feel like he got the support he needed the first two years?

I think the President and AD fully support Strong, but the BOR and boosters are trying to undermine him.

Perrin is the guy and by all accounts he's been really great and has fixed a lot of Patterson's mistakes. The problem is Texas has a lot of billionaires backing them and it gets messy trying to control them all. As shitty of a coach Mack was, he was really great at that.
Apparently the Tejas president is heading to Tulsa to talk to Gilbert :jnc
What a circus.
Seems like Fenves trying to fix the mess. Like I said a full on shit show.

For once I actually agree with BoG and Boosters.
Now it's Fenves, Perrin, and Strong flying to Tulsa.
Yep.

Hey Charlie Strong set the bar low with no guns, no drugs, no stealing respect women. It was to be expected. Even Walmart has a higher standard than that.Yep.

I have an up and coming OC in mind for Tejas if Gilbert doesn't work out. His name is Brent Pease.
I thought you'd try Bevell again..
Also, I would think we'd rather float Tim Beck.. The man who helped make Taylor Martinez aka T-Magic..

I've heard there's this guy hanging out in LA who wants to get back in to coaching.
That can't happen. They have to do whatever it takes, don't they? Can't get further embarrassed.imagine the shitstorm when gilbert turns them down
I don't follow the AAC much, but is this guy that highly thought of? I've never heard of him before this.

He comes from the Briles tree and is a young coordinator with Texas HS coaching ties. He might be a better fit than Cumbie because he does a run first spread. Some quotes about him.

5 years ago I asked P Montgomery if he were to be hit by a bus who should Art hire to run the O. He lit up & said Sterlin G. Hes a stud"
@FootballScoop 20h20 hours ago
Sterlin was our 2013 FCS Coordinator of the Year. Hes legit. Understand Texas interest in him; but as of right now, Texas hasnt offered.

Art Briles on Texas OC hire: We have to work harder now. Its like when someone gets into your bank account and steals your identity.
Interesting. Seems like he could be a good fit if Strong's tenure isn't as limited as it seems.He comes from the Briles tree and is a young coordinator with Texas HS coaching ties. He might be a better fit than Cumbie because he does a run first spread. Some quotes about him.

Who just sued his former employer...I've heard there's this guy hanging out in LA who wants to get back in to coaching.

I mean, outside of the distraction of the Navy coach looking at BYU, the talent level isn't even close. I'd expect Navy to easily win this one. They have what 2 losses? And are in the top 25?
I know anything can happen in rivalry games, but.....
I'll have you know Tim Beck is a fantastic Offensive Coordinator. Ohio State fans would be devastated if he left.I thought you'd try Bevell again..

Jake Browning lands the QB spot on PFF's All-Freshman team. #blessed

Edit: Myles Gaskin got the RB spot too.

So how true is this tweet? Posted today a couple of hours ago.

Tulsa OC Sterlin Gilbert has turned down #Texas OC job offer
Would that apparent flight be an in-person plea to him or something?

But still, it's on record that UT-Austin got an initial rejection from the OC at Tulsa. TULSA!
I didn't realize I was a thread killer, damn.
Just not many people that follow the WAC in here, sorry! June Jones would have been great there though!

Turned on JSU/CSU. I guess production values aren't a priority for FCS games.

I would throw up everywhere. And Tulsa isn't nearly as bad as KU at least!I wouldn't mind Tulsa getting into the b12.
Teams like WV, Kansas, and Texas need something to hang their hat on after all.

That cuts deep, man.
Also, WAC don't even play football anymore.
Gilbert to Texas. For real this time.
Sometimes a vote of confidence can be real.
Greg Fenves ‏@gregfenves 9h9 hours ago
I fully support Charlie Strong. I am committed to helping him move Longhorn Football forward.
Sometimes a vote of confidence can be real.
Pitt OC Jim Chaney to UGA as OC according to football scoop. Also, Arkansas OL coach Sam Pittman is taking the same position at UGA.
Anyone familiar with Chaney? Looking up more info now.
Seems like a spread guy with power running game but has become more pro-style recently.

You guys have been super slack on starting up a bowl thread. Just saying.
This wouldn't have happened if we went with Yahoo, etc.You guys have been super slack on starting up a bowl thread. Just saying.
UGA's plane is headed to Pittsburgh, one would think this is to bring the new OC down to meet Eason.

Did we ever get rankings from the final week pick em?
I hope that Charlie tells the administration to fuck off and takes a job somewhere else that will actually support him. This situation is disgusting; they're doing their best to fuck him over because they're too scared to fire him right now.
It's never going to work out.
The race element definitely comes into play here. Certain old white men wanted nothing to do with Strong.
It's sad but I could definitely see that being true. I don't think that problem would only manifest at Texas, unfortunately.The race element definitely comes into play here. Certain old white men wanted nothing to do with Strong.

Didn't he get fired from Arkansas? I remember he had a really good passing offense one year at Tenn, but he had like three NFL recovers and Bray as QB. Still didn't win many games though.
Also saw that Pitt averaged less passing yards per game than Treon did this year lol
He is also looks like Weis

He didn't get fired, he joined Narduzzi on his own. Getting 3600 yards out of Bray is nice, and obviously he did well with Brees and Orton back in the day at Purdue. I think I'm more excited about the OL hire. His OL at Arky have been monsters. Same with that power running game. Like these hires the more I look at it.
