Traylor has been might whiny lately. I think it's time for him to leave for Okie St. Then he can have more of a budget and stop complaining about it.

Did Pickens pass on? He used to dump buckets of money into Okie State.

Pickens money is gone and look at their recruiting since. Not a good landing spot for a coach in the Big 12.

Meh.  Minor league gonna minor league

Same will happen to sandy aggy once they stop getting Campbell's money.  Though that pipeline will be available for a while.

Jeff Traylor isn’t criticizing other programs; rather, Traylor is focused on UTSA’s future. By joining a conference with schools that have substantial donor support—such as Memphis and USF—UTSA faces the challenge of increasing contributions to remain competitive. Without stepping up, the program risks falling behind other AAC teams. I agree with you that for Traylor to compete at a higher level, moving to a school like Oklahoma State or Arkansas, where the NIL budget is larger, might be necessary.

100% what he is doing. If UTSA will step up, he will stay

When I saw that this was Dan Wolken quoting a post, I knew I had to dig deeper.

Traylor is trying to get more resources allocated to the football program and Golesh is defending his program. I've got no problem with either coach in this situation.

He is the absolute worst.

So, Traylor wants more investment for UTSA football to compete against these other teams and that is him being "salty"? Lol. 

Not sure what Golesh got upset about, nothing was really aimed at him or USF, in a bad light anyway. Seems like a non issue, both coaches just wanting the best for their program/players.

I have no idea how USF's coach took Traylor's comments as an insult to his players, but whatever works.

Having said that, seems like Traylor is signaling that he's moving on.

UTSA averaged 21K attendance at football games last year.  San Antonio's electorate just pledged $1.4B new arena for Spurs.

I think it's time that Traylor stops trying to make it work at UTSA and moves on to program that's better aligned with his goals.

Not sure where he fits, will going to Okie State be an upgrade? Sure it's in the Big 12, but is the support there? Arky is apparently leaning heavy towards the Memphis HC. LSU, Penn State and Florida are not going to hire him. 

Just not sure where he fits. 

[Horns_90]

Sounds like Traylor is setting the table for justifying his eventual exit.

Jeff Traylor is 50-25 at UTSA with two Conference Coach of the Year awards, and two C-USA titles. 

That won't be replicated by any of the next coaches if UTSA doesn't step up.
