re: Bobby Burton's latest round of potentially incorrect information - UH edition

It's kind of been the consensus around here on sports talk radio (not that it's discussed much) that it was between Kiffin and Orlando (who is the interim) with an outside chance of Applewhite. Les was basically disregarded.
I was lurking on a Texas board yesterday and they are saying that it looks like Orlando will probably end up their DC. I think Aranda may have been mentioned as an outside possibility at one point, but not anymore. So with them talking about Orlando going there, I wonder if Kiffin to Houston is close to being done at this point. We'll see. No word yet on Applewhite going to Texas, but I think if Herman wants it, it will happen.
All speculation on my part, but unfortunately Kiffin and Applewhite are looking less and less likely as options for us. I wouldn't be disappointed if Gilbert came here, though. Texas had a great offense this year.

I thought Applewhite was a no go at texas due to a law suit for sexing up some students

Im not grasping why you let this bother you so much. The guy does nothing for the product on the field. Absolutely nothing. I'm sorry, but like you said, the guy is a mouthpiece and that's it. I get you and a few others are BR sports radio aficionados and have hated the guy for years and this doesn't help....but when someone mentions the guys name, should you look into taking a xanax or something? A shot of whiskey?
To be fair, I'm the same way about this board and I'm not sure why I let dumb people rustle me. I'm not sure who's dumber.... Them, or me for replying to them.

Well, the lesbian track coach was upset because she was fired and Applewhite was not. But she slept with a player that she coached (and could revoke her scholarship) whereas Applewhite slept with a university employee that did not report to him. I believe UT is ok now with Applewhite coaching again.

No clear answer from Texas brass on possible Applewhite return
If not, I would love Applewhite as an option.

false. I talked to applewhite's brother Saturday. Applewhite is very much an option if we want him.

I would rather have Canada or Riley at OC for maybe 5 or 6 years than Kiffin for 2. A great OC with LSU talent plus stability I believe is key here.

I'm shocked Major would want an OC job at a top power 5 school (in his hometown) that's looking to pay at least 1.5mil.

I haven't hated DP for years...The guy has way too much influence given his background. You can deny it all you want, but O has continually lauded the guy publicly and even gave him a game ball following the A&M win. So say what you want but he's clearly someone that O values the opinion of. You show me another coach in the country that mentions his special assistant by name half as much O does and I'll shut up about it.

the whole point of this hire was to give us serious cash to go out and get the best. Major doesn't fit that criteria.
