  1. This would mean the coach has already been secured right? Why pay a huge bag to Evans then send him to play for a Charlie Strong level hire
  2. Here is the original from aggy 247 for any one with a sub. https://247sports.com/college/texas-am/board/20/Contents/we-lead-for-evan-stewart-173948563/?page=1
  3. Sexton got Mullen a big time gig after going 6-7 and 8-4 at Miss St so he'll be able to sell SC on Franklin. I'm with you though, Franklin leaving will finally break the log jam in the Midwest and Big 10 we've been waiting to burst.
  4. Franklin to USC is a no brainer for both sides imo. He'd bring the Pete Carroll energy that is required of an LA team and be in the conference hunt yearly. Getting out of the 1st or 2nd hardest division will do him wonders.
  5. Same with Aranda. What if Tucker and Aranda go -3 or -4 by the end of the year. A competent AD wouldn't fire their coach and secure a coach mid way through their 2nd year. If LSU has an agreement in place it will be with an established coach that can afford to lose a couple i.e. Franklin, Fickell, Jimbo, Riley
  6. LSU fired Pelini after year 1 of a 3 year deal that netted him $4 million on the way out. If this continues and Texas wants to show they are ready for the SEC then $3.4 million won't be an issue.
  7. Coach Beard will have the students rocking in the drum
  8. Perfect world for me would be Franklin then Fickell to PSU and Elko to Cincinnati. It's looking like Campbell is in for the long haul unless a ND or Michigan opens up.
  9. Please Please Please
  10. That would be closer to us hiring Applewhite. At least Kliff was responsible for a Heisman winner
  11. Cancel all other entries because we have found today's internet champion
  12. Tiger droppings resident insiders are hearing the Riley chatter at 11-12 million a year. Last known buyout was 4.5 million if he left for another job. Year 1 investment would be 33.5 million not including assistants to get Riley to BR.
  13. Gonna be hilarious when the SEC makes them to go to 9 conference games and makes Bama or Auburn their new permanent rival. Gone will be the days of their favorable schedules and 5 free wins
  14. Exactly and his 3rd down numbers are absolutely terrible as well. Casey: Hudson: Card obviously has a much smaller sample size but he played two of the three toughest defenses we have seen so far.
  15. Card would have definitely had the same success as Thompson against Rice. Maybe in the Tech game he doesn't have 6 TDs but Tech wasn't slowing anybody down that day. Everybody knows Card was bad against Arkansas but that goes for everybody else that played and coached that night. The point is that benching Card for a bad game in his first road start against a team that was much better than anticipated is more short sighted than anything. Thompson was bad all day against TCU, the 2nd half against OU, and the last 3 of Ok State. If the WR is not wide the hell open then Casey is not going to move the ball efficiently. All he had to do was sustain one drive in each of the last two 2nd halves and Texas is sitting at 6-1 right now. This is not a one game over reaction, he has been showing signs for weeks that he is a limited QB that needs everything else to go right to be effective.
  16. In the last two second halfs Thompson has scored a grand total of 17 points on 12 drives with 8 of those being 3 and outs or worse. This is including 5 in a row to end the OSU game. Please tell me how much lower the floor could be than those stinkers?
  17. PK was at Washington with Woodward. Maybe we get lucky when they hire a DC soon..
  18. Just rewatched both QBs through the Tech game (minus Arkansas cause I value mental health) and if the WR doesn't have 5 yards of space around him then Thompson isn't your guy. Against Louisiana Card saved multiple 3rd down conversions because he threw accurate balls into tight windows. This would have been nice the last two games when the defense keyed in on the pass on obvious passing downs. Card is not a perfect QB but I'd feel confident in him being able to find a way to win at least one of the last two games.
  19. But he would have had just as good if results in the Tech and Rice game. Casey's TCU and OSU game were low bars to clear so why not pulled Thompson since he's put up 9 bad quarters since the Tech game.
