quote:
Sarkisian is a good OC. However, he is basically Riley without the program that Riley inherited.
Riley inherited a program on the verge of collapse. The defensive side of the program had already fully collapsed under Mike Stoops. The offensive side was starting to follow suit under Heupel.
Sark is actually inheriting a program on more solid footing than Riley did.
quote:
The defenses in the BDF have been chasing Riley for years, and are starting to figure him out as a result.
That's news to me. Defenses in the BIG XII have gotten better overall, not "figured out Riley". To his credit, Campbell's 3-3-3 defensive scheme did kill the Air-Raid here, which is what it was designed to do. That's a good thing, and part of the reason why the defenses have improved. Goodbye and good riddance, Air-Raid....
quote:
Texas if smart would have hired a program builder like Campbell,
They don't need to "build a program". Their "program" has been built for decades. They need somebody who can develop their players and will put his best players on the field. Their players don't get better over their careers there (development), and their teams don't improve over the course of the season (also development).
And then you have a guy like Bijan who spent the season sitting behind guys he's very clearly better than under Hermanus. I'm not even sure Ehlinger was their best option at QB last year.
quote:
or somebody like Mahlzahn that plays a different style that defenses in the BDF are not already prepared for.
You have no idea what kind of offenses are played in the BIG XII. Malzahn's "offense" is a clownshow joke we all laugh about. It's a less than mediocre spread offense with a lot of window dressing and eye candy (motion and shifting).

I know what offenses are playing the BDF, and within a few years every team there will be playing a variation of the 3-3-5 on defense like ISU and TCU pretty much do already. WV isn't far behind.
You are a straight up idiot if you think Riley inherited anything on the "verge of collapse". That is some revisionist history at best.
Texas did need actual coaching, which somebody like Campbell can provide. And it will take a complete revamp in the way things are done to get rid of that entitled attitude throughout the program and the fanbase. Sark doesn't provide that, as he is already the boosters bitch. Meyer talked to a few coaching friends, and said thanks but no thanks. Then went to Jacksonville.
And very few defenses in the BDF can defend the run worth a crap, which is why someone like Malzahn would destroy that conference. The defenses are all set up to stop the spread. Fisher would also own the BDF, honestly
