Giles was a classy act for the Sharks and the Longhorns-He was pretty close to my age-maybe a couple of year older,

Trust me, Giles was younger than you Scoop. Maybe Walker was close to your age? Oscar graduated in 1987 from Palacios. Originally Posted by Scoop27

Welcome to Austin Coach Strong! I know some were disappointed we didn't get Coach Harbaugh but we got a good one!

IMO, Strong is an excellent hire for UT, and will prove to be a coach that leads Texas to multiple national championships. He'll get the recruits, run a tight ship, have the respect of the players, and do UT proud. Move over Sumlin.....there's a new sheriff on the recruiting trail. Thank goodness UT is cleaning out its football mess in the coaching dept. Too much politics and poor decisions allowed. Well....that era is over so bring in the new.
Yesterdays are gone forever and tomorrows may never happen, but today you have the opportunity to make a difference.

Patterson can extend a laurel, and hearty handshake, but I'm just glad they couldn't reel in The Waco Kid. Originally Posted by Old Tiger

I think this is a good hire from a football standpoint. It remains to be seen if it is a good fit politics wise.
However, ut needs to do some self-reflection in this and realize that their inflated opinion of themselves and the arrogance by many of their influential boosters is clouding their judgment and painting a negative picture around the country. First, they totally botched the Saban thing. There's choice #1. Depending on who you believe, they then focused on guys like harbaugh andtTomlin. Then it went to briles and then mora. Then things went to the strong franklins of the world.
So for all their power, money and prestige, ut ended up with their 5th or 6th choice depending on how you want to look at this. There is a perception, right or wrong, that there is major dysfunction and the boosters are a major pain in the ass.
