Mack Brown Tweet

Fair enough, we will agree to disagree. I sense division. You don't.

it's all good.

This is an example.

Mack hasn't been gone 90 days yet. . .you confuse butt hurt with division but even DKR had critics. . . .

Now granted. . .I know of posters on OB and here who openly claimed they wanted Mack gone in 2002-3 and screw the National title. . . . .no accounting for stupid. . . .

Mack did great things. . . he let things fall apart. . .he is gone and a non-issue to the vast majority of the fan base. . . face it. . .if it wasn't going to end ugly. . it likely doesn't end. . .

I agree with the sentiment, Cheese.

I will say, I wanted Mack gone after 2003, for me he had screwed the pooch, but I was wrong. From 2004-2009 he did a fine job. The way he succeeded was by selling UT as a destination for great players and having a few once in a decade types present. That was Mack that accumulated that talent. Then he found lightening in a bottle with the right mix of players and coaches and he nurtured it, that was a Mack strength.

However he lost his mojo and fell asleep at the wheel. He confused his ability as an executive overseeing a program with someone that really could make good game day adjustments and truly coach, that is not his strength and when the great recruits stopped coming and they didn't evaluate players or develop them and they created an entitlement atmosphere, that is all on Mack. Even in the six really great years from 2004-2009, only 2 conference championships and that still stings some. But it was a great run.

I don't know what happened 3 months ago with him, but it sure appears he put himself in front of the good of the program. He was so delusional, he thought he was "fixing" it. He thought he was UT football and he flat out pizzed off a whole bunch of fans including a bunch of powerful folks.

In the end, the Mack era is over but he created some real Ill will in the fan base. I hope time will heal the wounds on both sides.

Perhaps the 10th anniversary of the 05 NCs team will be a spot for him to reappear and let the healing really begin.
