CROSSFIRE with McPhaul – NEW YEAR’S DAY EDITION

https://www.hornsports.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/cross_mcPhaul.jpg

Well everyone, just like Mack’s career at UT the Alamo Bowl ended with an emphatic “thud” and if there wasn’t enough evidence how far this program has regressed in the past 4 seasons well last night was the last bit of condemning evidence.  The good news is change is coming and soon!  I’ve been working the phones and my contacts relentlessly to try to keep everyone abreast of on-goings of our Head Coaching search.  Let me just say this:  Steve Patterson is not going to be left “holding the bag” this time around with Saban.  If Saban wants to come- GREAT!  If not, we’re going in a completely different direction and the name that I am going to share today is not going to be a surprise however how far talks have progressed with this candidate may surprise a great many of you.  More on that in a moment.

Of course, we all know that Nick Saban signed his new contract extension with a $0.00 buyout however Jimbo Fisher just signed himself a new extension as well but guess what? No buyout.  That Jimmy Sexton ain’t no dummy!  More on Saban & Jimbo later in the post.
