Put yourself in Cumbie's shoes for a moment.  If you were an analyst for a small corporate entity that has good stability but the pay is meh, per se, and another small corporation wanted you so you decide to take the interview.  They give you a 2 year guarantee, but you hear scuttlebutt that they may be bought out within the next fiscal year.  That probably wouldn't give you a warm and fuzzy feeling, would it?  Same situation here, Strong's future is too unstable to predict who will be here in 2 years time.  I can see the justification in staying put with Patterson, because he's stable.

We need to find someone with the cajones and confidence to say "I know I can get in there and turn things around in a year".

In this in addition to Cumbie or instead of Cumbie?  Last I heard Cumbie was offered the OC with a wad of cash?

Texas is still one of the best coaching gigs in the country - did Cumbie turn it down?

Just trying to catch up I guess.

Cumbie turned down offer. 

You gotta wanna be a Horn.

But Gilbert, who spent just one season at the school, did not call the plays at Tulsa. Those duties belonged to head coach Philip Montgomery, per

of the Austin American-Statesman. 

At Bowling Green in 2014, he was a co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, another position where he didn't call the plays. Now he'll be responsible for Texas in the offensively stacked Big 12 that has high-powered teams such as Oklahoma, Baylor, TCU and Oklahoma State.

@zach_barnett: I'm told reports out of Austin are premature. Sterlin Gilbert has not been offered the Texas OC job.

the-scoop

GCM said earlier that Strong offers too much.  I'm sure that is what happens at every school, but does every thing Texas does have to be public?  Does the staff or Charlie leak these things out and then end up with egg on their face?

 

Sumlin is completely opposite when it comes to hiring which is kind of annoying at times, but seems to work.  Chavis was out of left field and even got Sumlin's pool boy fired for a tweet.  The new OC or lack there of for A&M has been a total secret.

 

Which would you rather?  Be informed and look stupid or be surprised?

    • That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.     
    • Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up. 
    • Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived? 
    • We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
