ASU Coach Todd Graham

[Darrell McPhaul]

Has now contacted Texas to let it be known he is interested in the HC position at UT.

Pass

Funny.

That guy never unpacks his suitcase.

 

[J.B. TexasEx]

No surprise there.

I don't want to see Graham or Miles on the UT sidelines.

 

[kchorn32]

Whoopie...of course he is.

No thank you. The way he recruited kids to Rice, Tulsa and Pitt, promising to be there for them and help develop their skills and then left in a heartbeat each time shows he has little commitment to the players and is all about his personal ambition. We don't need that as part of our program.

No to Miles because of the refusal to hold kids accountable for getting into trouble. If a kid has two sexual assaults you don't let the team vote him back as a starter (and let's not forget his quarterback got run out of UGA for a sexual assault arrest also).

Should probably at this point start making threads about men that AREN'T interested in the Texas head coaching job.

Just a thought.

Hook'em!

How does that work out contractually with Patterson? Would Patterson have to recuse himself?

 

[o5prey]

I would be beyond pissed.

McPhaul needs to check with his sources, but Im hearing rumblings of Vince Lombardi coming back from the grave to coach the team.

Bottomline: Dont shoot the messenger. I'd expect 50 guys to call up there by Monday Afternoon at least looking into the job. I can't see Todd Graham being hired here.

 

[LongviewLobo01]

Graham can coach and has ties to Texas, but I think we go in another direction.

 

[joebobb]

Wouldn't be the popular hire, plus he would create even more enemies around the country with his carpetbagging ways but, the connection to Patterson may be too hard to ignore. I am not for this hire, but it would not be shocking to see him get the job.

 

[Joe's Generic Horn]

I've contacted them as well. We roughly have the same chance

 

[ut1978]

Is he the "big name" you mentioned earlier (that had contacted Texas)?

 

[Lukus Alderman]

No thanks.

Lombardi's wife bought a house in Austin recently. Maybe there is something to the Lombardi rumors.

I went to school with Graham for 6 years and have been very disappointed how he has job-hopped and been willing to say whatever whenever. He was generally a pretty good guy during 7-12th grades. He fired the entire staff/department at Rice when he went there...equipment manager, secretaries...everyone. People who had been there for decades had their career ended so Todd could change the culture...of course he was gone after one year and all of them were still out their jobs. What a culture change. I understand wanting the change the environment but to have no commitment to the school after all that was very disappointing.

 

[primal defense]

No thanks. I've read Patterson made a deal with ASU to not take any ASU employees with him as part of being hired at Texas.
