You had me at Intensity.
I saw the tag line on phone last night... "PK Fired" ...WT holy Fuck??????
"Muschamp ..." Oh, Ok. Sorry about PK, but ...
"... when you can upgrade, do it every time.
he has produced some of the best and most physical defenses we've had in a long, long time
stop the god damned penalties, stop talking about culture and demand attention to detail at every level and win fucking games.
One of the very best pure coaches on a side of the ball that has ever donned the burnt orange and white has returned to Austin. Make no mistake, this was a very good day for Texas football.
What I absolutely love about Muschamp as a coach and person begins before an install, video breakdown, play call or scheme. It's the intensity, the passionate communication, the non-stop motor, a fire that burns constantly, the way he challenges his defensive players to bring the best out of them, the demand for physicality, the demand to be detail oriented of his players which creates discipline.
The spending time with family..."
I'm 100% behind this.
I liked PK, but his late game defense was the equivalent of Herman's turtling offense. Those late game collapses hurt us, even if we won the games. The scoreboard made easy wins look like close games.
Boom was Sark's 1st choice. I think that's where the list ended. Muschamp had a kid at Georgia; that was an easy decision for him.
When my company was acquired, I asked my new boss for a job description. He took his feet off my desk, grabbed a sticky note, and handed it to me; "MAKE MONEY!"
"Now, which word do you not understand?"
Boom doesn't send mixed signals. His style of communication is more direct.
His personality and style of play resonates with players. I think he will get Texas over the top and on recruiting a lot of star players that we almost get, but finish 2nd.
Coach Boom brings a passion and intensity that has been in short supply for a very long time. Somebody has to energize the team.
We have a lot of great players that are good people, culture guys, but they are all of the "walk softly and carry a big stick" kind of guys. Somebody has to charge up the team emotionally. Muschamp will find it, bring it out, and cultivate it. And equally important, that passion and intensity will bleed over to the offense.
After years of making money for others, I started my own company so I could watch my boy's grow up, did it for 10 years. A+ for Coach Boom. The man knows whats important in life.
Early on, someone alluded to the notion that prospective new offensive coaches were in the playoffs.
I thinking there's more to come.
