Oh wow that's cool. I actually like his takes and while we don't like some of them, they're pretty spot on.

Unfortunately we do dumb things sometimes and the jokes write themselves. The contract was/is a huge punch line

But yes generally Joel likes to poke fun but he knows we are a great fan base that deserves more than 8 wins per season and admitted we have all we could ever want/need to succeed

He said our list should be....#1 DeBoer at Washington - winner everywhere he's been and might be interested, then Lanning/Oregon - said it was unlikely, Jonathan Smith/Oregon State - said we'd love his style of play, Jedd Fisch/Arizona, Klieman/KState, Leipold/KU, and Elko/Duke. Said he also liked Traylor at UTSA but not as high as the others.

So what did our biggest fan, Joel Klatt have to say?
he actually said he feels for our fan base and can't name a more passionate one. Said sucks to pay 70 million but it was the right thing to do and we are one of the best jobs in the country

said with how fast the coaching turnover is these days it's hard to say there are many "knowns" out there to go hire and we already tried that with Jimbo

That's weird considering on his podcast he said we were probably the 7th best job in the SEC.

Is he wrong? All of the other 6 have won titles in the last 25 years, have lots of money, massive stadiums and fan bases, etc.

If you're one of the top twenty jobs in the country you can still be "one of the best jobs in the country".

He's literally quoted saying the same thing in your linked article
Quote:

and while he called the head coaching job at Texas A&M a "very good job, one of the best in college football," he acknowledged the hurdles the school faces compared to other programs.

Plus he's referring to the new expanded SEC, and like it or not OU and tu are blue blood programs. Then add in that Alabama, Georgia, and LSU all have multiple national championships since 2000. So yes you can be the 7th best job in the SEC and still be one of the best in country. Kinda like how Jimbo could have a top 5 recruiting class nationally but still only be the 3rd best in the SEC West.

Not that none of us don't already know, but seeing that in print is just a reminder of just how much of a meat grinder the SEC will be in 2024 and beyond. Goodness. As if it wasn't tough enough already.

I doubt you meant this, but I just want the record to show that Texas ain't on the level of the others mentioned.

Looking at those potential rosters makes me sad for what has historically been the best Ticket day of the year.

The only vote I was wanting to do (Gordo, Corby, and Dave for a Rant Revival) is against the rules. I probably won't listen to White Elephant with all those spares listed.

They do have too many candidates where one has to be left out as there are 13 candidates yet only 12 spots.

C'mon, man…

Nothing says Christmas quite like an ephebophile trying unsuccessfully to be funny on the radio.

It's like a reminder of the crazy uncle that can't be left alone.

Hilariously bad muser's seggy on a&m coach search. I was confused on almost all of Craig's points. The best part was him dropping a cowlishaw quote like it was the sickest burn ever. It was a fun listen

Yup. Can't win with them. We get clowned for almost hiring Stoops, clowned for not hiring Stoops, clowned bc apparently every A&M fan demands Saban, and clowned for not hiring someone of Saban's caliber.

George questioning if his son (Arky grad married to sip) should be allowed to root for the longhorns and trash talk other fans was missing some self-awareness

It was predictably bad. Light on facts and they didn't grasp why Aggies don't view Stoops and Elko as equals. I think they genuinely think Stoops and Elko are a coin flip.

How about Craig ruling that you could root for the team but cannot talk trash or wear the gear??? The ou Homer that didn't go to school there is making that point? Bizarro

It's pretty weird that an Arkansas grad would wear Longhorns gear and root for the Longhorns (and talk crap to his brother about the Longhorns). That would be like me becoming a Longhorn fan if my wife went to UT and talking **** to other fan bases. I would never even consider doing that. I love giving all the t-shirt fan hosts crap about not going to the schools they root for, but George's son is on a whole different level than the t-shirt fan hosts.

You're way overthinking it. People that do this (and those that advocate for it) are insecure dorks searching for internal and external validation. Nothing more, nothing less.
