He gets fired and moves back to Texas so he can use UT to grift the fan base. It’s predictable.

Which team had more talent the 98 team Mack inherited from Mackovic or the 2014 team Strong inherited from Mack?

Money was going to flow to any school during that time period, you think Texas was the only one making money? Mack is a cancer and a weak loser mentality. That’s why Bowden and Stoops owned his butt.

By the way, who hired Tim Brewster? You have a warped sense of credit that you attribute. Texas was clearly dysfunctional beyond Mack Brown in 2013. Steve Patterson was the worst thing that ever happened to Texas athletics, and that was a crap BOR that did that. It wasn’t until we got an all-Longhorn BOR and made a great AD hire that we got back on track. Mack Brown hired Brewster who led the charge in recruiting VY. You don’t get to discredit MB’s accomplishments

Did any of those coaches have a decade of success and raise money to a level to make their university the highest revenue university in the nation? And he might have been soft and might could have won more, but let it go. Time has passed . He deserves to come back in and help.

Did Mack Brown hire Steve Patterson? I find it very hard to believe Mack Brown had to be convinced to recruit the #1 player in the country.

Larry Coker has a title, Coach O has a title, Jimbo has a title, chisel has a title. perhaps Mack shouldn’t have been so soft and coddling to his players and he’d have more success?

Keep pumping the stupid media “Arch Sucks” takes! Give him and the whole team some added fuel for the fire. I hate how people in the internet age irrationally prop people up just to irrationally tear them done, gotta get those clicks. I guess I’m getting old lol.

9+ wins for 10 years , most years 10 and a national championship was left out. Could have played for 3 more national championships, it’s an oblong ball. Best testimony is from players that are legends, not you guys . Second best coach in UT history. He had his negatives. I think down talking the program on the way out is rumor. He did say he was working his tail off in Florida . Yeah, it was weird, but not worth all the hate . Get over it . And be appreciative. The hate is getting old

Mack had to be begged to recruit Vince as a QB and he better be thanking Tim Brewster every day for getting Vince. He turned away multiple Heisman winning QBs. As pointed out he burned this program down from 2010 on with his lazy recruiting and exit. He crap talked the program and school to anyone who would listen, he actively encouraged commits to look elsewhere and players on the team to leave. We’re all thankful for the title VINCE delivered and we can all dislike Mack brown for how, why, and after circumstances he created the lead to him being essentially fired

Thanks Blake! Not sure where you find those but it’s wildly entertaining.

Back at you

A person crapping on Mack Brown tells me all I need to know about them as a fan. Unless you are 60 years old or more, Mack Brown is the only coach you could have ever watched win a national title for the University of Texas.

The difference between Mack and Dabo is that Dabo had zero conference competition during the run he had of making it to the national title game. Also, CFP for Dabo. If Mack had the same level of conference competition as Dabo, he would have had about half a dozen more undefeated regular seasons and conference championships and that many national title appearances

A coach who wins two conference championship over 15 years is not a great coach.

His record at North Carolina is the winningest coach in UNC history. Maybe look things up before typing?

Yawn, he took over a talented roster and won nothing for seven years. Lost to OU five in a row. Got blown out by OU four times. And when he left, it took a decade to get over the mess, he left behind. Yes, he won a national championship. I give him his due for that he deserves for that but he is just notch above Larry Coker, Gene Chizek, and Lloyd Carr other national championship coaches. He ain’t no Bill McCartney who built a program from the bottom to the top. He is no Dabo. Of course, he is not even in Stoops league. He is an average as coaches who landed at the right program at the right time. His record at North Carolina tells you about how good of coach he really is. In 35 seasons finished in the top ten six times. Stoops in 18 finished 11 times and 5 times in a row from 2000 to 2004. We don’t need him to be our ambassador. Sark is our ambassador.

Mack’s the reason that Saban didn’t end up at Texas - im with you.

Mack burned his bridge on his way out. No need to rebuild it for him.

Mack needs to be recognized when they honor the 2005 team this year. Other than that he needs to stay out of the limelight. I don’t care to see him or hear from him.

This is cool, there should be an overall ticket "exchange" thread.

Yet his run is the standard we are still trying to get back to. Mack is the second greatest coach this program has ever had and brought us back to prominence. Completely changed the perception of the program and helped build the brand. If VY was the only reason then what was Colt? What was Corey Redding, DJ Johnson, Cedric Benson, Ricky coming back to win the Heisman, Shipley, Cosby...just to name a few that came because of Mack and still love him today and rave about him (RIP Cedric). I mean, the man did a lot for us and he is a great ambassador for the program even today.

He’s inside your tent pissing in it and he’s outside your tent pissing on it.

And he’s also the reason for a decade of winning. And the subsequent hires were the reason we went into mediocrity. The guys a Texas legend, other Texas legends acknowledge it, get over it. It’s old. His relationships also made us the most supported and richest university in the nation. That’s a fact
