2016 Texas Longhorns Recruiting Thread

[Kermit]

So let me get this straight...

We've offered two offensive coordinators a princely sum with guaranteed contracts (allegedly) to come and turn around the offensive (one of whom coaches at ing Tulsa) and they have both said no under inau ious reasons? The second of which actually (according to paysite reports which have been wrong more often than not lately) accepted the job? And nobody seems to know if Charlie ed it up, or if the Admin ed it up? Is he not getting the support he needs for these hires? Because just fire the guy and put him out of his misery. What in the actual is going on?

Sources told me Texas didn't land TCU's Sonny bie because administrators wouldn't tell him if Charlie Strong would be around after 2016

Charlie Strong was set to hire Tulsa's Sterlin Gilbert but the administration couldn't get the contract done. Strong's support is limited

And there you go IF THIS IS TRUE BECAUSE IT'S PROBABLY NOT BUT WHO THE KNOWS BECAUSE APPARENTLY NO ONE DOES . We are a giant ing clown circus on fire sticking nails into our balls whilst cutting off our s and screaming all is well.

[ColinB]

If there wasn't so much money on the table, Strong should just quit. What a shame.

[Biily Ray Valentine]

Wow! Did not see that coming. Feel bad for Charlie. I really like what he is trying to build, but can't do it with this lack of support. If they want him out of here, put him out of his misery already. This will definitely hurt perception, recruiting and in the next search for a HC. SMH!!!

And now Burton's putting it on Strong.

So that's OB and Inside for Charlie, Burton for the Admin. Let's see who else wants to dump gasoline on the fire.

[Blake]

Too much pressure for him. I don't blame him.

Let's be honest. If he doesn't get things turned around in one season, then Strong probably gets fired and he's out of a job like that.

That was probably the issue bie had as well.

A kid who is extremely close to his position coach and offensive coordinator (who's awful) got told that said coordinator would not be returning next season. Therefore, he transferred. Not that surprising tbh.

Who cares who is at fault. Everyone involved knew how important this was and didn't handle it correctly. The question is what now? They'll have time to point fingers later. If no one is place going into silent period, it will only get worse..

Not sure what that means but alright. Allen wouldn't have been at A&M if it weren't for Spavital. They were extremely close. Him getting canned didn't help his already murky situation.

Fault is important because we need to know who ed this up. If it's Charlie, bye bye. If it's the Admin and the BOR, it's a systematic effort to undermine the coach you just threw your support behind. According to DJohn, we're Texas. We should able to throw money and whip anyone we want. So, it's interesting that they won't pay out what these coordinators want. If it's true, then it's pretty obvious Charlie doesn't have any support and needs to either move on or just hire some high school squad to back up Traylor.

BTW, there is no what now. Someone just ed up an important hire (again) and right before an important recruiting weekend. The plane has crashed into the mountain.

I told you Strong was going to get forced out by Big Money donors. This show is their doing.

[yavozerb]

Lets be honest, both Texas Schools well not be very good next year..Both well be behind Baylor,TCU,TT, and Houston after next season. so sad

[Kermit]

This is going to have repercussions. I don't give a who the next coach is, because if it's truly that dysfunctional behind the scenes...

[TFloss32]

Omg we are a ing dumpster fire of bonfire sized proportions.

Holy . I log off for a few hours and come back to this.

Not a good start for Perrin and a terrible look for Charlie's program no matter who's at fault.

[ColinB]

Where is Bianco? Did the dude forget UT rehired him? Media is having a field day.

I agree that whoever is at fault needs to be held accountable. There will be time for that. Going into this weekend, having an OC in place was paramount. You bring up a very good point. Does he just hand it over to Traylor? In that case, as connected as Traylor is with Texas HS coaches, he lacks those contacts in the college ranks. Wickline has run an offense similar to what Traylor has run in HS, so does he stay? Same with Jay. At that point why not just keep him and the RB coach and play musical chairs with their les. The only one out is Watson and you only have to hire a ST coach… Not at all the plan going into this….

Yeah that was funny then, ing hilarious now.

It's totally backwards right now.

Texas doesn't have enough of a unified front to fire him, but it seems they're giving him the gun to shoot himself in the .
