I dont understand. We have the Hicks bros reaching out to Saban. Was this with the blessing of who? Mack is not even gone yet. I would love to have Saban. How are they selling this? Is Saban coming just for the money or to really transform UT? I think it is a pipe dream he comes to Texas although I have no idea. Also why would all the internet and media attention dtract him from coming? If I am being courted by a company and my current company finds out I say what he says until it is time to say I am leaving. I love the "inside scoop" and believe it is what the insiders are hearing but I have to believe that we will all be surprised by what really happens come late December. Basically I am saying I have no idea and I believe that no else does either. I will continue to enjoy Ob's, IT and Hornsports each and every day. Hook 'em!!!

Honestly I think that Saban has ALL of the negotiation chips at this point which is bad place to be negotiating from if you're UT.
I think we need to be looking at Plan B and let it be known to Nick we are looking at Plan B. If he aint coming it's better to find out now then in January then you ARE stuck with Mack Brown for '14!

Saban can come to Texas, Saban can not come to Texas.....regardless Mack Brown can not coach this team after 5 more games.

McPhaul, Why was Luck not on the list of ADs Saban wanted to work for?

What does potential political slant have to do with it being a good show or not when the show isn't focused on political ideology?
Jesus Christ.

Sorry bro...I asked the question because (a) I thought the show was about political ideology (which, according to you, it isn't) and (b ) I knew that Longview Lobo is a conservative so it threw me off.

No harm meant.

Just watch the entire series on Netflix. You'll thank me later, no matter what your political side is.

Ill have to check it out. We were looking for another series to watch anyways, so it's good timing.

don't say that, as I know your stand is that Mack is gone period! 'Course, if we were to mess around until January, then I can see it happening just that way

At the time, he was not as unpopular as he is now? Evidently Hicks thought having a BOR (Hall) involved in the talks with Sexton made it appear like he had all the stroke needed to get the deal done. Technically he did. However, since it has now become a media circus surrounding Saban & the Hall deal most likely going to bring more press, Saban is very frustrated with our inability to pull this off in a professional manner.

That was a huge tactical error.

My first thought was Perry must behind this. Perry probably sent Hall to negotiate with Sexton knowing full well he'd fornicate the whole thing up.

Then again he just aint that smart.

No this has been Ned and the first grade from the start. We need the old guard to get the job done. Seriously. I know they're aware Mack's time has come and they want to see a winning team on the field. Just let them head over in the new Gulfstream 650 that Rex has at his beck and call and get the del done!

Pockey,

Are you in WVU?

 

[POCKEY]

No. I'm home working. I have a deadline this week. I turn in the proposed production guide for a commercial I shoot next month. I cast Thurs and Fri this week.

It's the lingerie commercial I shot earlier this year. Just getting a jump on it this year. It'll air Valentines Week again.

Don't worry, I wouldn't ask your daughter to audition for this one.

McPhaul - Do you think Patterson will be able to deliver Saban even with all the leaks lately? Nick has to know that this will not be an easy transition? He might have to deflect some questions from time to time moving forward.
