Even if Mack is motivated enough to try and stick it to UT, he still won't be able to pull in the recruits to do so.
I think Mack's recruiting woes in the later UT years were due to effort. If he gets out there and grinds, I think he's an upgrade.

or he could do like June Jones and use the this job as one last big pay day and pretty much give 0 fricks.
if SMU wants to throw huge money at someone, use it towards an up and comer.

What happened to Mack is that he planned on, and told people, he was retiring after Colt graduated and he won his second Natty. That's why Muschamp was Head Coach In Waiting. When Colt got hurt and UT lost to Bama, Mack's plan of going out on top went up in smoke. He didn't want to go out like that. That wasn't the plan. So he came back even though he'd mentally checked out. That's pretty much impossible to do. Muschamp was pissed, of course, and left. Mack tried and failed to get himself back in gear. He'd neglected some things in the last couple of years running up to the final championship run because he knew he was leaving afterwords and didn't need to worry, but suddenly he WAS still coaching and wishing he'd prepared better. The end came because the mountain was mentally and emotionally too hard to climb after having already checked out.
At a new gig, a clean slate, hungry again... while Mack couldn't rake in top 5 classes at a school like SMU, he'd still steal a few from he big boys for sure.
