I'm actually not *as* pessimistic as other posters. But the truth is it might be a 20% probability that we'll get the success you guys want from a new coach. For 80%, we pay another buyout and another new coach.

And honestly, 20% is kind of high for the level of success required by the "no excuses" crowd.

In the end, it's easy to post öööö on the Internet about no excuses. But actual firings and new hires require tens of millions of dollars. Either you have to get that from mega-donors or we have to raise even more debt.

I’m not a “go fire him” guy, but I just didn’t see the wisdom of the contract extension
 
I don’t understand why so many are worked up that he or his representives reached out to another job. From a purely football standpoint UT is a definitive step up for a coach from GT. Anyone not looking to get to the next level is a puss.

Eh, others have said in the past, probably some of those same ones harping on this point now in fact, the bowl streak became meaningless because there are a bazillion bowl games.
