The fact that we are talking about a coach who had a stroke makes me want to kill myself. 

Make sure you get a McRib first and go out with a bang!

If someone like Traylor or Kubiak or similar were to become Head Coach - Texas would need to have a big say in Assistants and support staff.  We can't let yet another head coach bring in a G5 level staff.

for sure on the defensive side for Kubiak, as it was always his blind spot until he got Wade. He can identify offensive coaching talent, but needs to make sure they can 'croot. 

Just don't see it, but...

Isn’t Sark more of a drunk than Herman?

Yes, in a way that's similar to Bill Cosby being more rapey than Harvey Weinstein.

I forgot about the stroke thing, probably not a good idea for him to take a job like Texas HC.

I agree about recruiting witches, just because we can't be so sure how Kubiak would be, but I will say: the guy is likable as all shit. Dude would win over every mom and dad. 

Yeah, these would be my only causes for hesitation. Otherwise... as a Broncos fan... bring him on.

My dad played baseball with Kubiak. Said he was slow as shit & would always get thrown out stealing. 

Wish Herman would get thrown out stealing a $6M salary.

Rational people are convincing themselves that Jeff Traylor and Gary Kubiak could be acceptable hires.  

It's interesting that a former Super Bowl winning head coach like Kubiak is being laughed off as terrible. He isn't a flash in the pan like Herman, Kubiak's offensive system is proven and he knows how to build a staff. The big question for me is recruiting, but that can be addressed with the right hires.

I think most rational people realize Urban isn't coming here and that Herman blows. Throw shit up against the wall, fuck it!

Picture it now, Kubiak rolling into a recruits house wearing a Super Bowl ring and talking about how he coached Manning, played with Elway, etc.

Recruit:  Who is John Elway?

Seriously, do recruits care about that or do they care about getting to a playoff asap?

His system is proven in the NFL. In the Big 12, you have to score a lot of points.

He has never recruited.

Fuck Kubiag. The suggestion is laughable.

Is Kubiak bringing John Elway and Von Miller on as staff? If so, sign me up.

To be fair, KubiAg did win a Super Bowl when Peyton's passing accuracy had cratered into Parkinson's patient territory.

The recruiting party I agree with, but there is no doubt his offense would score points in the Big 12.

We just scored a ****-ton of points, and we suck.

Would be as much a roll of the dice as any other suggestion. I thought that's what everyone said we were getting away from.

He has no problem scoring in the NFL with Kirk Cousins at QB, I'm sure he'd be just fine against the big 12's shitty ass defenses.

These candidates all suck and are likely to be no better than Herman. I have posted this on other threads, but this is why we need to think outside the box and completely change how contracts are written in college football! We need a sellable plan to the BMDs that we can buy out Herman and his assistants, yet not cost much more than if we kept Herman. Herman has $18.75mn left for the final 3 years of his deal and a $15mn buyout. If we offered only a $4.5mn guaranteed contract over 3 years, we would be paying only $750k more than if we kept Herman for the next 3 years and we would get rid of his smug ass and save our 2022 recruiting class!

Why do we have to keep giving these G5 coaches a 5 year $5mn per year guaranteed contract coming off $1-$2mn contracts at their small schools?  This just leads to our constant cycle of locking into the wrong guy and having to beg big donors to buyout bad contracts. 

We should reset how contracts in football are made by finding coaches who are hungry to win at UT. Offer a short-term incentive-laden contract, which is say 3 years and a $1.5mn per season. But, you get a $2mn bonus for a 10 win season, an added $1.5mn bonus if you beat OU, an added $2mn bonus if you win a conference championship, an added $2 million bonus if you make the playoffs, an added $2mn bonus if you make the championship game and another $2 mn bonus if you win the National Championship. So, we are only guaranteeing $4.5mn over 3 years, but a coach can make up to $13mn and should make at least $5mn (win 10 games and beat OU or win conference).  We can always extend 2 years if he is a badass for recruiting purposes. We can also offer EVERYTHING we offered Meyer like $3mn for assistants, complete control and his own assistant AD for recruiting who can coordinate player “imaging rights” with big donors going forward, etc. That way we have some institutional deniability and reason to fire with cause yet provide CDC and Hartzell some cover should the new assistant AD/new coach get caught stretching the limits by a completely neutered NCAA (i.e. we won't be punished by the NCAA bc we will be doing what every $EC school does)

Coaches like Jamey Chadwell (who has worked miracles at Coastal Carolina, which did not even have football 4 years ago, and who makes just $375,000), Jeff Traylor (who makes a base of $800k at UTSA), or Bill Napier (who only makes $880k and up to just $950k at Louisiana Lafayette) would totally jump at this contract offer! They would just want the chance to be the UT coach, much less double or more their base salary and have a potential to make $5mn+ just for meeting expectations and up to $13mn in a year.

Money isn't the issue. The issue is winning football games. We could offer someone's mother in law $100M if she gets us to the playoff final. That doesn't mean she's going to get it done.

Tell me about all his college national championships.

We'd be an even bigger laughingstock than we are. What a fucking joke!

It doesn't matter at this point.  If it's not Urban, it's a kick in the dick.

None of the names out there move the needle one scrote hair for me.

This.  I'm apathetic at this point but Urban would have gotten me excited again.  I never let myself believe it would happen but if they hire another JAG I'll find a hobby.

If it's not Urban or Art (it won't be either), then any other hire will be a roll of the dice. Who are we getting that's a guaranteed thing? Dabo? Saban?

There are plenty of coaches out there that could beat OU, win bowl games, and the occasional conference crown.

Would you kindly steer one of those guys to Stillwater, OK? Because this sounds like crazy talk.

Thanks in advance.

There are other rolls of the dice who wouldn't cost as much and who didn't attend our in-state former rival.

The potential tears if we were to win anything significant with a former aggy at HC is a pro for me.

Royal was a sooner. Winning with an aggie would be second to that by only a little. 

But not fully advocating for Kubiak. But not sure how expensive he'd be, and for how long. Who knows.

Any one else gotten to "fuck this shit" on this yet?  If the trash offered is all there is, cancel the season over and over until something better comes along.  I mean, just fuck it.

Yes.

Gary Kubiak, NFL offensive mastermind.

Average offensive rank of his teams: 17th of 32.

what are you using here? fucking total offense? what a trash metric to use to show he isn't good.

i want to see DVOA for his teams - but don't have a FO sub...does anyone want to share his DVOA rankings?
