Thank You Bobby, Gerry and OTF--Coffee and Football with Mack This Morning

[McKinney529]

I don't post much, just don't really have time to keep up with the board like I would like to.  I just wanted to say "Thank You" for having Mack Brown on this morning.  What an incredible interview.  Coach Brown is the best and I could listen to him all day long.  Thanks again!

I know things didn't end well for Mack at Texas, and part of my job meant calling it as I saw it, but I've got countless personal stories that outweigh any negatives that might've lingered from Mack's tenure on the Forty Acres.

When he resigned in 2013, Bobby pointed out that 16 years at Texas made Mack THE head coach for a generation of Longhorn fans. I'm in that group. I was a freshman in high school during Mack's first season at Texas. Mack and Ricky Williams made it cool to like the Longhorns. When it ended, I was covering it in the press box at the Alamodome as a member of the media.

People can say what they want about Mack, but you can't deny that he's one of a kind.

Very well said Jeff! Mack is one of a kind

That was probably my favorite Coffee and Football episode of all time. Bob Shipley hoping on last minute with Coach Brown was cool as hell. Thank you Bobby and staff for pulling that off

Great interview!

Amazing interview.

At least since Mack has been affiliated with the program, it has been better off with him than without him.  Check out the Strong and Herman years for confirmation of that.  I'm glad Sark has found a way to have him around the program in some capacity.
