Title: Texas Football Opera Has Gone Public
Post by: Marshal Dillon on December 16, 2015, 05:35:38 PM
This is just incredible stuff. What person in their right mind would want to be football HC at Texas?
Read the link, it's absolutely surreal.

Of course, the fact that everything has played out so publicly is another bad sign for Strong. There was also the persistent talk about Miami, which reportedly came from a conversation with Strong himself. The leaks about the candidates and the contract details. The leaks about the interviews and visits from the offensive coordinator candidates. Little happened behind the scenes in recent weeks that wasn't immediately out from behind closed doors.

Some of this is definitely on Strong, too, from his offensive hires to his lack of interest in cultivating relationships with the boosters who can protect him when things go wrong. Had he gotten things right offensively, the other factor likely wouldn't have come into play so quickly, but he removed his own margin of error through mistakes and the blowouts that came as a result.

So, to sum it all up, the athletic director doesn't believe in the head football coach, many of the important donors don't believe in the head football coach, and the athletic department was either too disorganized or too dysfunctional to get the negotiations right with Cumbie or Gilbert to help out the head football coach. In Cumbie's case, Texas only got one chance. Fortunately enough, there was a second chance with Gilbert.
