re: Larry Porter hired as Texas RB coach

It's gonna be interesting to see what happens when Brown leaves... do you guys see a lot of the current assistant staff being retained? IMO, UT would benefit from a total cutting of ties from the Mack Brown Era.... not that he or his assistants are solid coaches, but the program needs a new, more hard-nozed attitude.

I think we have a hard-nosed staff, but the overall attitude starts with the HC, and Mack is anything but hard-nosed. At this point, Manny Diaz is the only assistant that I would be happy to see leave. I could've expected a drop off with the defense after the talent we lost at LB last year, but to field the worst defense statistically in Texas' 100+ year history should be a fireable offense.
