Sark after dark at the helm at UT

I hope they screw the pooch for the third coach in a row

It’s not a guaranteed disaster like keeping Tom Herman.

Truth.

I think he could be pretty good. I expect him to hire a really good staff considering the assistants he’s rubbed shoulders with in the past. This is where Herman failed I think. The question to me is if he puts up a couple 9-3 or so seasons to start will Texas sit back and wait or will the walls start to close in

I think it’s a solid hire for them, but remember the sips think they’re God’s gift to world. They want a splash hire, one that makes waves, and is noteworthy (why they threw Saban’s and now Meyer’s names during searches). Sark is kinda underwhelming for them. His record as a HC isn’t anything special.

Herman might be a decent coach and he may go somewhere else and do well, but he’s a tool. The mocking of the Mizzou QB several years ago, flipping off the camera on recruiting day, kissing his players.... dude is just an arse. I wish they would’ve kept him longer because I don’t think he’s good enough to build a program into a yearly contender. And he fit the weird Austin culture to a T.

Guessing part is the buyouts they had to dish out but I also wonder if he held money off to use on his staff instead
