It needed to be done. I don't get why today? And why keep him around?

Yes, this needed to be done. Can someone explain it to me what the advantage is to do it today, in the middle of the season, after a big win over Florida on a record-breaking day?

Well seeing all of the additional off the field issues coming out, it makes sense. I wouldnt be surprised if more leaks start pouring out

So when we curb stomp the Rebs this weekend, beat Arky and A&M we don’t get forced to keep O

This is the reason, if the team continued to somehow get big wins, it would make it look worse.
It was no longer about winning and losing, O has done some bad stuff and is creating a toxic situation in the building and needed to be dealt with

Maybe Woodward waited until he had the new guy locked up.

This was in the works before the Florida game and the outcome of the game had no bearing on the result.

Woody is a bum that is why

In case he put a string of wins together. Then you would have a section of the dumbass fan base calling for him to keep his job. Just like what happened with Miles

Perhaps it is a courtesy to a national championship winning coach

What is the benefit to running him out and then moving to an interim coach? What upside comes from that in the middle of season?

It was all about the buyout and the related timing and leverage. They were ready to fire for cause, and told O we need to know by X date if you’ll take this number negotiated buyout which will be better for all parties but if you don’t, we intend to fire for cause on X date
It was probably all procedural. O didn’t want to get fired for cause and took the deal - and the lesser buyout money - by the deadline.

Why now? My take is that our AD was worried that O could rally team/fans. By “leaking “ this news and “leaking” lots of dirt on CEO, he took care of that. Season guaranteed to tank from here.

They ran him off for off field reasons. He hurt some big wig feelings. Texas has been sad for many years because some big wig wasn’t happy. sad.
