    This is a reactionary opinion.  There isn't enough data on Sark yet to make that judgement.

    Each of our previous two coaches was given enough time to show what they were capable of.  Charlie earned his shitcanning with three straight losing seasons.  It might have been a good idea to give Herman another year, but he was a miserable cunt who no one liked so he kind of earned his shitcanning as well.  Sark has had one season, and that's not enough time to draw a definitive conclusion.  If he continues to lose, he'll go, but any suggestion of firing Sark after one season is an opinion to be disregarded.  

    Very true and I think most reasonable people agree. Much of the Sark angst is because people really trusted him and had high expectations this season and he let them down big time. Sark's ability to lead this program is not being questioned based on his actually coaching ability or his offense, most people love what they've seen. Its the Arky, Kansas, and Iowa State games. Those results cannot and should not ever occur at this program. That is the data which has many concerned. My hope for Sark is that we had zero returning production from last year, our QB and OL play was garbage yet we still had one of the top offenses in CFB, and under him we are going to be elite again on special teams. It appears that he has to really screw up not to win 8 next year. But another losing season would be impossible to defend, that would be all the data we need.

    Sources at Texas confirm football program's interest in former TCU coach Gary Patterson....

    Ketchum 

    Just got off the phone with a source with connections to the Texas football program.

    The bullet points of what I've been told:

    a. There have been conversations with Texas officials and former TCU head coach Gary Patterson about a possible role within the Texas football program in 2022.

    b. It is unclear as to whether Patterson has spoken with Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian or what specific role Patterson might potentially take with the program, but Patterson has a very good relationship with Texas athletic director Chris Del Conte. The exact specifics of the conversations are yet pinned down, but the expectation is that Patterson would go through Del Conte in early communications.

    c. Patterson seems very open minded about the possibility of joining the Texas program based on the impressions our source had received.

    d. Patterson is very close with former Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds and his wife. In fact, we were told that Patterson visited Dodds last month in a trip to Austin.

    e. While our source wasn't sure of the exact position that Patterson might potentially take in the Texas program if such a thing were to actually happen, it isn't believe that Patterson would take an analyst position. What does that mean? It's not a question I can fully answer at this moment.

    f. Our source believes that Patterson might also have an interest in a position with Oklahoma if that opportunity popped up in the wake of OU's coaching upheaval. As someone that believed Patterson would only come back as a head coach in his next job, I've been told that Patterson is apparently open-minded about his next step in the profession.

    g. Finally, on another note, I asked this source if there were rumblings of potential changes to the staff following the 5-7 season and while this source was very careful with the words that were used, there was a suggestion that nothing should be written in ink with regards to the current make-up of the staff for a variety of potential reasons.

    Stay tuned...
