Mack Brown Tarheel Football: The Orange Slice Boogaloo

Outlook not good for CDC keeping Mack distanced from the football program, if not our athletic department. The official Texas Longhorns facebook account highlighted Mack attending the home basketball game last week, and the demographic that follows and posts on facebook was 95% pro-Mack. Hopefully CDC doesn't take that response as the consensus among all Texas alumni and fans. I assume mostly casual or t-shirt fans only associate Mack with 2005 and have selective amnesia about the record vs. OU, lack of CCs and BCS, and the events surrounding his departure.

Heard him telling someone that he was going to speak to Sark about fixing our running game.

  • He actively shit on Texas on the way out, trying to prevent good coaches to come here and told recruits to go somewhere else, all to make himself look better. Do you really think he wants Sark to win

  • He's been a petulant cunt at NC over the last few months and they told him to get lost. He hasn't changed and shouldn't be anywhere around the program.

    He wrote “Fuck you, pay me,” didn’t he.

Man Mack annoyed me and in October 2003 when he got raped by Oklahoma a 2nd time I wanted him gone.

I am still nowhere as insecure about him being around as y'all.


It highlights an insecure self important old man that wants to latch onto success that isn’t his.

He’s going to tell Sark the best hotels in San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl. You can’t put a value on that kind of wisdom.

What if I never stopped wanting him gone after that?

Even Taaffe is like "this isn't good"

it was time for mack to go no doubt but you fucking idiots that just keep disrespecting him are fucking ridiculous.  We arent who we are as a school without mack in the 2000's.  

Who is the other older man? I imagine he works for UT?  Facilitating Mack's greeting?

I’m repeating an earlier post, but here goes:

Darrell Royal was encouraged to retire. He accepted the emeritus position after UT hired his successor at HC and AD without listening to input from DKR. Yet, over the next three plus decades, Royal worked as needed to help UT (the school even more than the football program). Several university presidents remarked on how delighted they were that Royal was never working his own agenda, and only offering input when asked. 
 
Brown’s collapse as an effective HC happened at a bad time for the university. Perry was trying to transform UT much as he was doing to TAMU. Powers, the president, was in a tough spot, trying to keep his position while not acceding to the governor’s (and the most recent Perry selected regents, some of whom were booster of other schools) demands. 
 
Instead of working with Powers, or even staying out of the political squabbling, Brown actually took advantage of the bickering to try to leverage more time. It damn near worked. 
 
That’s the problem with Brown. We know how he sees his importance with respect to the program and the school. We know what he will do and sacrifice to advance his personal interests. He has shown us. 
 
Sure, the program is in a good spot, now. Sure, a place can be made for Brown. But, what if things change? What if there is a rough patch or a big issue? Do we want Mack Brown, with all his interpersonal skills and connections connected to the program, helping with decisions? Even if he could be managed, is it worth the effort? What does Texas get from this attachment?

I dont disagree with anything you said.  but for people to imply that he shouldnt come to basketball or baseball or whatever games and interact with current players like hes going to infect them with some sort of malaise is idiotic.

Interesting you should project that. At least we can spell banana, though, so there's a silver lining in there somewhere.

Also, you should take note of the fact that Mack is here because he just got through doing the exact same shit at UNC that he did here, and shit all over his own legacy, such as it was. He did his "give me X years to fix this" schtick, refused to resign and got his ass fired. The fact that our last go-round with Mack was more than ten years does not mean that we should embrace his return.

Let me sum it up for you:

 

FUCK. MACK. BROWN.

You clearly don’t know or remember how  slimy that rat fuck was. 

Didn't Mack get Joe Jamail, who was one of UT's biggest boosters, to demand concessions from the university or am I misremembering things?

Jamail was Mack’s lawyer, a huge donor to the university and, yes, he insisted on better terms for Mack than his contract called for.

Bill Duvall of Lincoln Properties, he does not work for UT but often referred to as the CEO. One of the top boosters.

nothing good can come from this biased "reporting", but hopefully Sark and CDC can ignore it and he will go away.  Surely Mack can find something to do other than try to stick his opinions in where they are not asked.  Maybe Tulane can offer a part-time gig. 

I’m fine with Mack glad handing with donors and passing out cookies at games. Keep him the fuck away from everything else.

Yep. We wouldn't have had to deal with Charlie and Herman if it wasn't for Mack.

You shouldn't be.  One leads to the other.

But that’s not how it will work. He’s going to be front and center a lot this fall i guarantee it
