As nasty as the collective fan base has been towards other “candidates”, we would be utterly loyal and devoted to our pirate captain.

LOL - sure, at first. But let's not act like 5-7 followed by 6-6 with a loss to UTEP wouldn't have some people on the ledge.

And got crushed by a good not great OM team in Cotton Bowl.If not for some garbage time TD's he probably loses by 4 TD's

Give him time. We can believe in him. We never could in Butch or Dooley.

RD...just let it go, man. Here is what you sound like:

"Ah, yeah guys, I know that for the last week, you have been the laughing stock of the entire country. We all said you wouldn't get a coach. Well, now it looks like you got a coach, and potentially a good one, but I just want you to know that I don't think he's all that great. You know, he's ok, but not that great..."

Have you been watching? A hire of this quality after our goat-rope coaching search would be a miracle. Just let it go.

Well yeah. Texas tech recruiting while he was there ranged from 35-47th recruiting class every year because he was at tech.

Its only right that we band together, take to Twitter, and protest this. Mike Leach is a national treasure and UT doesn't deserve him.

What about Craig Schiliano? I bet we are going to regret not hiring him.

Yeah, he was probably our best bet. I don't know why we even talked to Mark Gunder or Dale Cutlip. Those guys are clowns.
