Message What is really going on with the football program? by dbbuilder79 I'm starting to wonder if the rumors about Bob Stoops was true.

What rumors?

It's simple. Alleva put all his eggs in the Jimbo and Herman baskets. Instead of giving Jimbo a deadline, he allowed Jimbo to play him until the end of the regular season. This was stupid because, as Texas learned, it is almost impossible to lure a successful coach from a top program. And the delay brought UT into the Herman competition. Once UT got involved we were toast, and we had no alternative left but O.

If those were his choices his strategy should have been to give Jimbo a deadline of November 1, then give Herman a one week deadline. In the meantime, he should have been negotiating with a stalking horse to show Herman he was not in the driver seat.

Alleva handled this amatuerishly, then compounded it by giving a $3 million salary and a $12mm buyout to a guy whose dmonstrated earning capacity was $600,000 per year. Alleva is an idiot.

O campaigned for the job, the propaganda was set in motion, and supposedly Duke Riley's Instagram post after the game against A&M convinced Alleva, because Alleva is so incompetent that he fricked up firing Miles 2 years in a row

This is the answer. This was a completely emotional and political hire. That's the only answer.

And given the fact that duke was on his way out, it's just funny that he had something to do with the hire.

Almost doesn't mean shite, and USC is #5 and overrated as usual, but props to Herman for the turnaround from the Texas team that took the field against Maryland. That's what great coaches do. Let's see if Orgeron can do the same.

A shite show. Look dumbass before you type. Look at where Texas has been bringing in recruiting classes. Strong had talent. Also, he almost won? Lmao...gd you are one dumb sob.

If you added the iq of Penrod, semjase, mojeaux, mot, etc, you might come out with a normal iq of one person say...might

Hey there. Chin up, little buddy. There's always hope. You just have to know where to find it. I find mine at the bottom of a bottle. I say we all just get super rowdy hammer drunk at every game; like the good ole days.
