And the thought that we will just crumble back to mediocrity once he does hang up his spurs is just asinine. So we have a successful program, finally, and we're just going to hire some schmuck off the street to let the program go to hell? If anything we would, hopefully, learn from Florida's mistake and skip that Zook-like coaching debacle in favor of the young promise of a Meyer-like up and comer.


It's not that easy to replace a coach. Unless you spend the $$$$ to get a big name, you take a risk on a hot up and comer, who sometimes just doesn't work out.

Sometimes you can go out and hire the big name and it is even a bigger disaster. Everyone forgets that it was only a decade ago that A&M went in and got Fran from Bama when he was considered one of the best coaches in football AT THE TIME. Then he proceeded to take a team that hadn't had a losing season in almost 20 years and destroy it. Hiring coaches always is a crapshoot.
