I love Brune. But I have to disagree. Seth had to do the safe hire. Not in a position to roll dice with you an inexperienced guy. Yes you could find the defensive version of Graham Harrell.... but it’s about 85% more likely you end up with Bodie Reeder

Exactamundo and Bodie was let go from Utah St. this year thus confirming he wasn't ready for FBS

Ready? Maybe he just isn’t a good coach.

 The older I get the more I realize just because someone has that position doesn’t make them good at it.

I appreciate your views, but I think your way off on this one. 

A lot of your comments were relative to the NT players that Bennett will inherent.  Insinuating that a younger more energetic coach will be better equip to succeed. 

I think just the opposite is true.  

You listed all the successful DC jobs that Bennett has had, yet imply he will fail here.   I do not get that logic at all. 

You stated that Littrell made the save hire, when he should be looking for the next Graham Harold.  No, he should hire the most likely candidate to succeed, not some high risk coach. 

You may also want to note that Nick Saban is 66, Bill Snyder was a hc at 78 and Bear Bryant was coaching at 70.

He didn’t just take the job for a paycheck,  just like Mac Brown! He has a passion for the game and enjoys leading young men. It is a hire of a coach that has a proven  track record where he has been a DC at a very high level! Get off the age thing!

I think you guys are right. It is definitely a safe hire and not one where SL is swinging to the fences.  I also agree with the others who say we had to make this kind of hire.  

I think that just shows where we are at with this program under SL. We are in a very difficult, semi no-win situation that we have to make the most of where we are to get ourselves out of it.  I think it is safe to say that both are right on this and it just indicates we are in a pretty cruddy situation.

To win games we need to score one more point than our opponent.  Our offense, as a rule is not the problem.  With any improvement at all on the defensive side we win more games. With PB as DC I don't see how our defense cannot improve significantly.  I see us back on an upward trajectory, I believe Seth made a good hire.  How good remains to be seen.

I can remember (& was reminded the other day watching the Longhorns Network) how after 3 seasons (1965-1967)  Orange-bloods everywhere were wanting Darrell Royal fired. (DKR’s Texas Longhorns won a national championship in 1969).

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
