What I don’t get is how Glasscock gets a GM job elsewhere but the guy who replaces him as GM probably doesn’t have as strong overall skills. I get that Harris is important for a lot of recruiting, but the GM job is so much more. Why not just make Glasscock the GM?

I felt we had everyone sitting in the right seat and now everybody is in a different role not suited for their skillset.

Totally. Hiring a guy who was drafted by Nick Saban, coached by Dan Quinn, worked under Bo Davis for three years, has eight years of experience coaching the position in college, has recruited the stat

I will douse BurntOrange&White and BillFromLakeTravis in gasoline and set them on fire to retain Bo Davis while getting rid of Terry Joseph.

Maybe he got drunk and tried to jump out of an airplane at cruising altitude?

Unless you directly knew someone on the staff why would you say that? Because we made the playoffs? I'm not even an ardent defender of any of them but I'm pretty confident you don't know any of them or how they work.Having parasocial relationships with the front office of a football team is pretty weird lmao

Roster “management” happened as far back to the ‘60s and DKR that I can speak of. My Dad was a “valuable” practice player for four years and was glad to be on a partial scholarship throughout his time on the 40. He didn’t “letter” until his Senior year (Fall of 63).

Hook’em!!!

I have no idea what these people’s skillsets are, what their jobs actually require, or really what they even do. Thus I don’t know if these changes are terrible or terrific. But if I had to guess, it is probably somewhere in between. Thats my hot take for the day.

This seems like the right take for most of us who don't have some connection to the inner workings of things. The only thing that stands out to me is that unless you're in an organization known for having a deep bench and a history of successful internal transitions, this feels like a comfort move. It's also inconsistent with Sark's other moves when backfilling roles.

Could all four people have been ready to level up and perform in more prominent roles? Maybe so. But the odds are not all are prepared for a jump. Time will tell, but football recruiting at Texas is not a learn-on-the-job role.

This is my concern as well. I'm not sure Harris, or any of them, really, are ready for the step up. Are Searels and Harris the most experienced? That seems less than ideal unless they're total prodigies and I haven't heard anything like that about either of them. I'm even more bearish on John Michael Jones. I don't quite know what to make of Kyndal Perry but the recruits seem to like her, I guess? 

I do like the Huppert hire from Oregon State. The Beavers seem like they're at leasy usually pretty good and to be consistently pretty good at Oregon State, you'd damn well better be fucking AWESOME at 1) getting good stuff from your analysts to take advantage of the other team's weak spots, 2) finding diamonds in the rough (like Silas Bolden, for example), and 3) developing your guys. Not sure how much, if any, Huppert will help with number 2 but I do know he was Director of Player development under Chris Petersen in 2020 which I like a LOT.

Huppert also has experience as a DL coach, which I definitely like. Unfortunately, that experience came under Dan Hawkins, which I definitely do not like. 

Anyway, hopefully, we're not done and steal a couple guys from Bama and Michigan.

Wonder if Sark creates another position and adds someone to help with player evaluation  since that was one of Glasscock's strengths?

Old quote...

 

I sincerely hope so. I definitely do not trust Harris and Jones to do the same caliber job as Glasscock...

The titles sound impressive, but basically these people just coordinate visits and make sure the coaches contact the kids often and have the talking points, right?  There is a whole other team doing player evaluations and roster management, right?

 

Right???

Yes- this is correct. Admin type role for the ladies in recruiting department - not analyst role.

Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian invests a lot of his own time and puts a lot on his on-field assistant coaches to stay on top targets and get it to the finish line, challenging them daily on the recruiting trail to be the best they can be. The off-field standout in Austin is Brandon Harris who Sarkisian just promoted to his General Manager position. Harris does a great job keeping in contact with prospects, particularly when coaches can’t, whether that’s because they’re on the practice field or getting ready for a game. He develops great relationships early with kid, getting on them as underclassmen and it sets the tone for the Longhorns to sign top-notch recruiting classes like they did again in 2024 (finishing No. 6).

“I call him the president,” Ryan Wingo’s father Ronnie said. “That’s my dude. He’s got to me passion for his job and does a good job. He’s always just 100 about everything. He does a good job of selling Sark’s vision of what the players can do to help their program.

“He’s the president.”

Giles has got friends in every town and village from here to Dalhart, he speaks a dozen languages, knows every local custom, he'll blend in, disappear, you'll never see him again. With any luck, he's got the next two-star defensive lineman already.

"The hire of Patterson is key for Aranda who is set to work alongside defensive coordinator Matt Powledge and become the defensive play caller for Baylor in the 2024 season, while also coaching the interior linebackers."

Such terrible writing that I am not sure exactly what it means.  I think it means that Aranda was doing such a great job as head coach that they decided to dump a lot more on his plate.  And then they hired Patterson so they could make him HC when they get enough money to fire Aranda.

TCU should have thought about that before hiring a Briles.

I cannot remember if it has beans or not, but the Chili there goes hard in the paint. Burgers and breakfast are on point as well.  It is a yearly stop on our way up to Creede.

and then the scene cuts to Fritz walking into Giles' office to find him asleep and snoring with his feet up on his desk and a bag of chips spilled all over himself

Believe that will Jean-Mary’s second stint at Michigan.

I never had a problem with him at Texas. Seemed like a good coach and recruiter.

He was one of the better recruiters on Strong's staff, but I can't really say he developed our LBs. There is no acceptable reason Malik Jefferson should not have been a first round guy.

Well other than not being good at football.  He didn't do anything in the NFL either.  He was really good at combine drills though.
