you could be right. i'm not an expert on the guy. maybe the things he stands for skew my opinion.
he's been an excellent DC and while bridgewater had the world to do with his success at louisville, not all coaches take advantage of talent.
i can't see any scenario short of him going 3-9 where he doesn't come back to austin next year.
that said, i hope the horns wallow in failure and mediocrity for all eternity. was just trying to be objective about strong as a coach, not necessarily how bad i want the horns to be.

As Red McCombs - (formerly) UT's biggest benefactor - said: Charlie is a great coordinator, but not a head coach.
Head Coach at the University of Texas is a more prominent position than Governor. You can't hire a guy for that job who is incapable of speaking English.

Actually I honestly think you are right. Charlie is a great head coach at lower levels of football where all the talent is compatively shite and actual coaching makes a huge difference in results. Or he is a great coordinator at a high level when someone else recruits talent for him.
Charlie's problem is the Texas job isn't about how good of a coach you are- that is why you are given what is head coaching budgets elsewhere to hire coordinators. When you are head coach of Texas you are kinda like the mayor of the state, your job is to make everything look great (no matter the reality under the surface) so that five stars who are naturally inclined to play for your program aren't given a reason not to.
I think some mid level program is going to do very well under him years from now.
