You don't have to know what wrong to know something is not right. I look at what is happening lately and by lately I mean the past three years to see what is wrong.
2012...Won 8 Lost 3 with one KSU left to play plus a bowl game
2011...Won 8 Lost 5
2010...Won 5 Lost 7
If you do the math that is 15 losses with possibly 2 more, over the last three years.
Looking at the previous 10 years Mack's teams won at least 10 games each year and over that span lost a total of 16 games. That's an average of 1.6 losses. Solid program and the envy of college football. No team won more games.
The amazing part is we could see Mack's last three teams lose the same amount of games it took ten years of previous teams to lose. From a 1.6 average loss of games in ten years to over 5 losses a year over the last three years.
It started with a change in philosophy. When Texas lost to Alabama, Mack made a definite move away from the spread offense to the pro offense with a strong running game. We quit recruiting spread quarterbacks and that got us David Ash and Case McCoy. We were going to be the next Alabama but someone forgot to tell Mack that Bama had some of the greatest offense and defensive lineman in the game. We tried to do it without the linemen.
There is an old adage that if it is not broke you don't fix it. Texas was not broke until Mack tried to fix it. They won a national championship and played in another so Mack got bored or whatever and by fixing it he broke it. Now recruitment is down. From the 2nd ranked recruiting class in 2011 to 3rd in 2013 they now are ranked #11 in Rivals current ranking for 2013.
I have not idea who to hire but I just know that Mack's judgement has convinced me he has lost touch with what it takes to win. It is time for a change.
