Charlie already in over his head at ut

and here's this one from OrangeBloods

Young, whose career included coaching stops at SMU, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, the Houston Oilers and the New Orleans Saints, said he and the other directors aren't happy that recent stories are mischaracterizing the opinions of the clinic and it's directors by using anonymous sources.

Many of us Longhorns already suspected this. Mike Martin, owner of the clinic, says "I smell a rat ..." after the ESPN article criticizing Strong.

I was just going to post that.

Why in the world would espenis harm their brand like that?

Makes no sense.

Why would this harm ESPN? Completely aligns to their interests.

So....their having a vested interest in all things 'longhorn' would precipitate them putting out negative press about the newly named football coach...football being the cash cow of the whole shebang?

Not sure I follow your path here...enlighten me.

ESPN investment in Texas is in the millions. ESPN investment in the SEC is in the Billions. So if you were ESPN would you rather see the state of Texas opened to the raiders from the east or have it closed down with Texas dominating the state?

Not to go all grassy knoll on you, but I think the Texas investment was ESPN's Hail Mary to stop conference realignment.

Did you hear about the 3rd shooter at the grassy knoll?

How about the Sound Warehouse in Hollywood where they filmed the moon landing?

No dirt in Austin...

I couldn't read the initial AAS story it was behind their pay wall.

What should be noted was the writer was not at the clinic. He was getting his information second-hand. It reminded me of the old SWC back stabbing.
It's also quite possible that the coaches who were negative and not quoted have players that had Mack's scholarship offers and were pulled by Strong.

This right here. A lot of people do not realize how many schollies were pulled by Strong once he took over. I'm pretty sure that did piss off a lot of high school coaches. But oh well, those players were Mack's players and they did not fit Strong's system.

Seriously, WHO CARES?

The only thing that will matter is if he wins. If Strong wins, none of this wil amount to a hill of beans.

Funny, but the best "speakers" I've heard were Mack, Neuhisel and Willingham........I think I'm good with Strong being a coach first and speaker second.

 

[charlie42s]

It's the off-season.
He's actually a decent speaker. Evidently, he was a last minute addition. He probably had to cut down his Texas Comin' On Strong Tour speech and talked fast to get it all in. He was also not talking football, but talking the Longhorn's up.

This....

It's a funny piece, but much ado about nothing...

Other than coaching, his most important part will be appeasing the alumni...esp the ones with 6 figure donations..
