How this guy isn't at the top of UT/Arky/Auburn's list, I'll never understand.

So you think we should hire a guy with 1 year experience who was previously half responsible for your mediocrity over the past few years? Noted.

Correct. Took over a 4 win team and has done very well in his first season. Only losses were a 1 point loss @ Tulsa, a 10 point loss @ Boise, and a loss @ Oregon.

He's a better head coach than he was a coordinator as well. He was beloved in Aggieland. Definitely can win over the boosters at a big time program.

I would be scared shitless if he was hired at Auburn or Arky.

Serious question, what makes you think he is so good? I liked him at A&M and for real didn't think he was much the problem. I know he did well at Air Force, and coached y'all to victory in the car brakes Bowl last year. However, I am not convinced he is ready for tFlagship Captain's Chair. His defenses are a bit gimmicky for my taste, but I am open to convincing here.

He was my first choice for UK mainly because he had some HC experience....

I could see taking him over Stoops, and I am sure he is a fine coach. I hope Stoops is as well. Anyway, I just think I would rather let him prosper some more unless we really do strike way out on our first 10 offers or so...

Yeah. He was always doing crazy blitzes which caused y'all's secondary to suck arse.
