You guys have a good football program, but come on. Austin vs. Ttown, UT vs. UA, money, star power, legend status. No comparison, UTA wins in every one.

Money no doubt. That's what he turned down. But star power and legend status? UTA has no advantage there for a football coach

What?

I'll give you Austin over T-Town, and I'll even give you money, though we'd offer him a blank check to stay if we had to.

Star power? No. Just no.

Legend status? Really? Alabama is the GOAT CFB program. Bear Bryant alone is more legend status than most programs, then you add in the likes of Joe Namath, Bart Starr, Don Hudson, etc, and Bama's ahead of Texas.

No. Texas is a top 5 program all time, but they're not Bama.
