I agree but he also had Saban which probably kept him in check from doing what he did at Washington. He won't have that shadow holding him somewhat accountable.

Texas fans about to see a ton of bubble screens.
I'm really hyped for him for some reason.

Ehlinger should come back with Sark taking the job

He was showing up to practice drunk at SC wasn't he? After it gets to that point, the whole "he's a manageable alcoholic" goes out the window.
If he's still drinking, this is going to be a disaster.

I think he ends up on the rinse and repeat cycle like his predecessors. UT politics and a drinking problem don’t seem like an ideal situation, but hopefully he proves me wrong. Just see a similar story 3 years down the line for him, too.
Sure, it has the name attached to it, but they’ve underachieved for decades, less the Mack years. Just don’t see this ending very well for Sark. But again, hopefully for his sake, I’m 100% wrong.

I wouldn’t want Sam back personally. If the dude isn’t running TDs from 5 yards out he ain’t anything special. The kid who played for Texas in the bowl game is way better

Whether he succeeds or not, you take the Texas job when it comes open. The guy has coached at UW and USC as a HC. What job should he have taken instead? He’ll be a top OC if he gets fired again and can cash in on that again. I’m sure Sark isn’t seeing this in the same light as you, and coaches generally aren’t taking these jobs thinking that they’re going to fail

I thought the same thing with Charlie and Tom but that Texas Job doesn't seem like it's a great job.

Knew sark was dipping.

I think the behind the scenes **** with the boosters definitely tarnishes it but it’s not a job that a guy like Sark can really turn down. If he’s turning down Texas, what job does he take? He turned down South Carolina and Auburn both in the last month.

The problem isn’t that they go into a job knowing they’re going to fail, there are good reasons why HCs haven’t succeeded at UT. Just seems like a recipe for disaster for Sark IMO.
I thought there was talk about him taking over for Saban when he leaves? At least he has an idea of what he’s dealing with at Alabama. Taking over for a legend is no walk in the park though either.
But agree on your point on being an in demand OC even if this experiment fails.

So it was Urban, and then Sark as the backup option.

Potential HCW at Alabama while making 3.5 million (probably goes up to 4.5) or an NFL coaching job (these racist owners would give him a shot). He has a great thing going at Alabama. When they lose, Saban gets the blame. When they win and the offense gets the credit, he gets the credit. The big elephant in the room for me is that in Mack's final years at Texas he essentially stopped recruiting and left Texas in a vulnerable position that they've yet to recover. Sark will get two years tops to turn things around. For the boosters turning things around means beating OU and getting to the playoffs.

anytime he's enjoying the nightlife, it will get reported by someone. Gotta think he's smarter than that.

I hope so but if they win or beat OU he will get protected.

Also gotta remember Texas isn’t the Texas from when Mack Brown was there. It’s not the same destination job that it once was

I guess one question had been indirectly answered if Sark was supposed to the be there heir apparent.
Nick Satan ain't retiring anytime in the next few years it seems lol
You’d think Hugh Freeze would have gotten a burner phone for hookers, too. It happens lol
