All indications are now pointing to an very underwhelming hire for the Texas post. It has a touch of Nashville tied to it.

well least our coach can beat up theres lol

Kiffen?

 

[TheWaterboy]

Yay! We love settling!

 

[UTK66]

Lol.

 

[RoyalCrowns]

Yay! We love settling!

That would be EXACTLY what we'd be doing, too!

If it's Franklin, I don't think it's a bad hire. The guy has done incredible work at Vanderbilt. He's a motivator, a great recruiter and his players would join the front line in combat to defend him. If Franklin becoming the Head Coach at Texas is the worst thing we have happen to our program this year, it's going to be a great year.

What leads you to believe this?

 

[DizzG]

It's not franklin IMO

 

[ATX_Horn]

Franklin? No way...don't see that happening.

 

[hittman70]

Really? Which sources are you referring to? If Franklin was going to the coach, he would already been announced IMO.

 

[KellyUT4Ever]

Please say it isn't so.....nothing about this makes any sense

 

[BullSprig@Work]

if Saban says/said "no"... then its Strong

 

[colepeyton]

franklin or strong bank it

 

[CardSID]

Seeing things to suggest it's Charlie Strong.

We've tossed around Saban, Fisher, Shaw and the Harbaughs. not to mention Jon Gruden reached out. The best we could come up with is James Franklin! Oh well, wait and see I guess . . . .

Patterson is not going to tie his career to Franklin.

My favorite has changed to Charlie Strong.

This would be a good time for Charlie Strong to move on from Louisville. No Bridgewater and his name is hot right now. I would expect Charlie Strong to be the next head coach at Texas. Now commence freakout
