Recruiting Forum Football Talk XLVIII (New Coach Edition)

We're not going to get a good coach to come here right now. This recruiting class is toast. Our AD is the face of an inept administration. We are a national laughingstock. Everything our AD does makes people laugh harder. This is not going to be a quick fix.

The stages of grief have led us here. Acceptance.
 
Per Clay Travis:

I am told that UT AD John Currie made an offer to Jeff Brohm that Brohm accepted. Currie then asked the chancellor to approve the offer — buyout included — and chancellor said no. So Currie went back to Brohm with lesser offer and Brohm said no. So here we are.

Unbelievable. Why does does this chancellor have the power to veto this?
 
Hyams burying the lead and opening with an interview of a New Orleans Saints reporter talking about Kamara. Sounds pre-recorded. Hyams probably trying to get an update.
 
Clay Travis said Brohm accepted but Davenport wouldn't approve so currie lowered the offer and Brohm wouldn't approve

Edit Ziti'd

So the witch screwed this up? Better get her security too. If this damn AD isn't completely cleaned out after this... Where is Bald Biker and AV? I hope they are about to take over things.
 
So Brice & Hyams were both right.

It was accepted. And agreed upon. Then hit a major snag.

Good googly moogly we are a joookkeeeee
 
I am 33 years old.

I only share that because it truly feels like my age group has seen both sides of the UT spectrum.

Media and people hate us.... but why?

I will tell you why. Because at one time we were the cockiest, scariest bad azz fan base and team of the 90's and early 2000's and used to dry hump people's team on the field and in recruiting. We let everyone know too.

Fast forward post Fulmer.

I now feel empty. I argue that we are a top program and finger point excuses year after year. I know that it's silly and I take this UT stuff way to seriously, but I grew up in the Orange and White. It means so much to me.

To know that people who don't love or want to bring back our legacy are running our AD and boosters let's me know what I got to do.

The only way things will change I fear is if we stop spending our money on all things UT. When we hit their bank perhaps they will feel some small amount of pain like I have felt for these past several years as a young adult.

Hot take: He should have. Hes ruined his career by backing off.

BS, he ruined his career by offering him the job on the first place. If he had gone through with it, it would have been a TOTAL disaster.

Let me back up, he probably ruined his career by taking the trash UT job
 
Per Clay Travis:

I am told that UT AD John Currie made an offer to Jeff Brohm that Brohm accepted. Currie then asked the chancellor to approve the offer — buyout included — and chancellor said no. So Currie went back to Brohm with lesser offer and Brohm said no. So here we are.

Just dumbfounded.
 
Best way to respond is just stop supporting, man. Stop giving these incompetent people your money, because that's clearly all they care about.

I will not watch a game next year and that's sad, but there's no enjoyment in any of this. It's a miserable group of people who shouldn't be employed by a university with so much potential.

From Clay Travis, so TIFWIW:

I am told that UT AD John Currie made an offer to Jeff Brohm that Brohm accepted. Currie then asked the chancellor to approve the offer — buyout included — and chancellor said no. So Currie went back to Brohm with lesser offer and Brohm said no. So here we are.

Is he just yanking people's chain for the fun of it? Davenport doesn't have the unilateral authority to do that. Currie would never present an offer that hasn't been approved. He doesn't have the trust of anyone right now.
