I'm not convinced that anyone really knows for a fact what was on Julie's mind. But if I had to guess, I would say it had a whole lot to do with what was on Jerry's.

Let's be honest. We let Jerry run the show last time. The mentality that Texas recruiting is vastly more important than overall resume is what got us to let Jerry hire Chaggie.

I don’t see how people say things like this. Leach is one of very few candidates we have discussed, who has actually been successful at multiple P5 schools.

Fact or fiction about Jerrah?


From what I was told Chaggie was a safe 4 year hire with ties to Texass.

Although we need a recruiting presence in Texass, the whole Texass BS is overblown.

Hire a damn winner that can recruit, IDGAF where the dude is from.

On top of that is it even smart to try and judge a coach based on their record vs a league they have never even been a head coach in? That just seems extremely short sighted

Maybe HY will make all the difference here, but considering our track record, maybe that’s part of the problem.

Around the time he was first hired, I talked to a booster couple I know about why we chose Chad over other candidates and their reasoning was "Texas recruitng ties and Chad is Jerry's guy" no bullshite. They didn't get specific but they wouldn't have mentioned him like that unless he significantly influenced the decision.

When JCP said that she was blown away by Chaggie's interview.... she didn't mention that the interview consisted of Jerry calling her and telling her that Chaggie was the hire.
