    Man your University is a giant shit show.  Life never rewards impatience and y'all are the poster children for impatience. Caviar expectations with Big Mac intelligence. Paying 25 million to send

    This thread is hilarious. I think Sark is either naive or brain damaged for agreeing to coach at Texas. Maybe both. It's clear to me that the Texas fan base, ex-players, and big money are fractured by

While he is on this flight everybody is talking about. That would be pretty high tech.



Have you ever worked with anything high tech?

Nice. Dominate the news cycle on aggy's big day, hopefully gets a ring, and then goes and recruits while wearing it.

And what happens if Bama loses?

Nah it’s all ball bearings

Funny how I will suddenly be rooting more for Alabama in that game than I ever could have imagined possible.  Wait! is it still 2020?  Did I fall into a time warp?!?

Whatever. Still coached in the championship game, and it doesn't really move the needle either way.

Players meeting was at 1530.

 

Plus CDC may want to address the team and staff first about his decision before introducing Sark to them

Announcing the same day aggy is playing was not lost on the University

We'll know it's Sark if they decide to lit the tower.

Let's hope only the tower is lit.  

We’ve gone from the “learn on the job” program to the “second chance” program.

I I’m very thankful Herman is gone, but what the fuck are we thinking with Sark? He couldn’t handle USC. What made our boosters think he can handle Texas?

Maybe because he put the plug in the jug.

Announcing that Texas made yet another horrible hire on same day as aggy game is net win for aggy.  This isn't just a failure.  It's a miserable failure.  The guy is 46-35 all time.  Never was competitive for a conference title.  2-2 in bowls.  The guy we're sending away with $15 million payday has a better resume.  Aggy is nothing but giddy with this news.

I still can't help but think about how infatuated most of y'all were for so many years with Herman.  I just don't get it.  Not saying "I told you so" but tens of millions of dollars later for a guy who averaged 5 losses/year.  What was the fucking infatuation?  I just never got it with that guy.  I was way more enamored with Strong.  Seriously, what was the delusion?

I guess.  But announcing that Steve Sarkisian is going to be your next head coach shows exactly how far this program has fallen into the toilet. 

And continues to be.    

Texas Longhorns Name Steve Sarkisian Head Football Coach

The University of Texas at Austin has named Steve Sarkisian, currently offensive coordinator for the Alabama Crimson Tide, head coach of the Longhorn football team.

AUSTIN, Texas – The University of Texas at Austin has named Steve Sarkisian, currently offensive coordinator for the Alabama Crimson Tide, head coach of the Longhorn football team. He replaces Tom Herman, who was released earlier today.

Sarkisian has a strong track record as both an offensive coordinator and head coach in both Division I college football and the NFL. He also brings to the Longhorn football program extensive experience coaching in conference and national championship games and developing top talent, including three Heisman Trophy finalists.

"On Jan. 4, 2006, I was the USC quarterback coach when we played Texas in that famed national championship game. There has always been something special about Longhorn football, its history and traditions – not just on that day – and I could never have imagined that 15 years later, I would join the Longhorns as their head coach," Sarkisian commented. "This is a unique and compelling opportunity to lead this storied program to the next level, competing once again amongst the best in college football."

Sarkisian was just this week named the Broyles Award winner, awarded to the top college football assistant coach, as he has helped lead the Crimson Tide to compete for the 2020 national championship.

"We are excited to have Steve Sarkisian join us and lead the next chapter of our football program," said Kevin Eltife, chairman of the UT System Board of Regents. "University of Texas football has a long and proud history of competing at the highest levels within our conference and nationally, and he brings with him the coaching caliber and championship experience needed to restore this kind of excellence to our program." 

President Jay Hartzell said: "Hiring Steve Sarkisian represents a critical investment in our football program's future, not just for our student-athletes, but for all of Longhorn Nation. Our entire community benefits from a healthy and successful athletics program, and naming Steve as our coach infuses our football program with the necessary guidance and expertise to drive further success."

Prior to joining Alabama in 2019, Sarkisian spent two years as offensive coordinator with the Atlanta Falcons, four years as an assistant and two as head coach at the University of Southern California, and five years as head coach at the University of Washington. His head coaching record is 46-35 overall and 2-2 in bowl games.

"Steve Sarkisian is one of the top offensive minds in the game of football, which he has proved over and over during his time with USC, Atlanta, and most recently, Alabama," said Chris Del Conte, vice president and athletics director of The University of Texas at Austin. "We are confident our players and coaches will thrive under his leadership and in response to his energy and passion for the game."  

I like this hire today a lot more than I liked Herman’s hiring on the day he was announced.

With Strong? Fuck.

 

I refuse to believe it's not Urban until I hear something official.

Same. I think there's a lot more potential and pedigree here than Herman.

Correct answer.

Are you surprised? We’ve had 2 awful hires in a row, haven’t won our conference in 12 years and aren’t even a fringe playoff team. 

Not to mention people got REALLY invested in Urban, which never seemed that likely.

What an asshat, my goodness. How's a ULM grad got so much antipathy for UT?

Yeah, Strong was a decent guy with a sense of ethics.  He was also a shitty football coach, but was a solid man.  Herman is a con-man with a serious drug problem who fucks around on his wife and robs schools of millions of dollars.  There's a difference.  Both sucked at big-time football coaching, but I'd let one around my family.  Herman is a drug-addicted, womanizing cunt who steals money for a living.

That’s because lots of Texas fans are morons. This is a good hire

Well a lot of folks hated the Mack hire.  Then only a small minority hated the Strong and Herman hires.  So maybe my wild coincidental grasping at straws will pay off here
