Remember how bad it seemed when Bama couldn't even get Rich Rod? The first response poster was right. If they end up with a good coach, who cares?

I don't see how anyone can give a grade until the hire is made. Do all this shite an end up with a dud? Obviously people will act like ermehrgerd Texas is so stupid!!! Do the opposite and the same people will call them geniuses because one guy offered decided to say yes.

Easy, this is the biggest shite show ever. If they reincarnate Knute Rockne, this still goes down as a complete joke.

Bama was sitting on about a 9 back in 2006... then they pulled off the best coaching hire in college football history.

let it play out... sure, it appears to be a disaster right now, but the only thing that matters is who they hire.

politiceaux is 100% right.

only thing bigger in texas is egos. they muddied the waters. but you don't think those vatican rich guys know how to deal with damage control?

They might end up with Les. and they will be seen as ego-maniacs that messed up a sure thing with saban.

or, they sign saban after the bowl game. and the same ego-maniacs are seen as genius.

i would be willing to bet sexton chewed some asses after the leaks started. thus the 8 person committee. buying time / deflection. smoke normally = fire.

I'm sure everyone involved with Texas football will give a shite about what people think is a joke if they hire a coach that wins championships. Alabama's coaching search was a shite show in 2006. How many people care about that now?

You are right, it was shite show. It will be forever remembered that way, just like this one, which is the point. Whether they recover and go on to get another coach is a completely different topic.

Perhaps remembered but no one can argue that Alabama fricked up the coaching search, which is the topic of the thread. That's how the Texas search will be judged. Nothing else matters.

However if they are still able to pull off getting Saban to Austin this year then it could improve to 9.8865283711.

0. Texas wasn't going to hire a new coach until after the bowl game anyhow. No coach would take that job, with Mack Brown still there to coach the bowl game.

In my eyes they look very dumb and pompous. 8/10 sounds about right.

Too early to call but it's sitting at a 7 right now. Something tells me they will pull a good hire out of their arse.
