re: Mack Brown to Resign | The Search For His Replacement

This had to be the busiest work week of my life... 10k will have to wait for the weekend.

There's a guy Prairieville linked up with some UT boosters and he's accepting donations to supplement The Longhorn's offer to Saban, Sexton et al.

If it's Friday night, Saban's at the ballgame
And first thing Saturday if it don't rain
He's headed out to the lake and he'll be gone all weekend long
But he'll call you back when he gets home on Sunday afternoon
PS if this is Austin, he still loves you

Could be worse, I know someone with a cat named Les, all he does is eat grass and meow like a redneck english professor.

Hopping on planes and buying a house
Nick sure has been quiet as a mouse.
Rumors abound, "Nick is a whore!"
Mrs. Terry said they don't like us no more.

Battle deflects, won't let out the secret
Gump nation resembles that river in Egypt.
"Saban ain't leaving! He'd never quit!
Ten Million a year? and TV? Oh shite."

Herbstreit denies, he's quick to the brim
Thank God he's accurate. We can always trust him.
Slowly each day, you see the plot turn
"Paaawl, think that statue will burn?"

So where will Nick coach,
Leading teams full of brawn?
Most think he stays...Nevermind...






















HE GONE

How does Mack Brown want this to go? The next major step here is to figure out the mechanics of how exactly Brown steps down. He's out on the road recruiting again on Wednesday, but has to be back in Austin for a 10 a.m. press conference on Thursday morning to talk about the Alamo Bowl against Oregon, sitting in the same room with his buddy Chip Brown, who set all this whole firestorm with his Tuesday report that Brown will resign.


The press conference could certainly get contentious because none of the reporters present are going to be particularly interested in talking about a match up against the Ducks that could go worse for the Horns than any of the previous games this season, including Baylor and BYU -- it's not going to be a pleasant experience for Brown.

But the sense as of Wednesday morning is that there may not be an announcement at that time. In fact, it could be Thursday afternoon or Friday morning because the word from SI's Pete Thamel on Wednesday morning is that there won't be a decision until after the Board of Regents meet on Thursday.

The word from ESPN is that Brown wants to tell his players first. Obviously, the reports are already out there. Is there any chance that an announcement doesn't happen before Friday's banquet? Since he's going to be back in Austin Thursday morning, that leaves him with a whole day to meet with the team and inform them of a decision.

Until then, there's plenty of time for Brown to try to fight to keep his job, which may be exactly what's happening. Needless to say, this is probably the second-worst scenario that could come to pass after Brown actually keeping his job.
