It really depends on the circumstances. I know no one in Tenn wanted Kiffen to succeed at USC, and Sark had no fans at Wash. Think LSU fans were rooting for Saban? Do tell!

Then they went through spring drills and came to the conclusion Nico wasn’t worth the raise or the drama. Nico’s team badly misjudged his value and misplayed their leverage. Now they’ll be lucky to find a lateral in terms of comp and profile.

I’m glad you’re contributing and that Texas keeps a large net for non alumni. Be well.

Really? I didn't know they added a course in emoji interpreting. Not that you'd know, of course.

Somebody didn’t attend UT.

English, please.

Shane Beuschele did the same. So did the Clemson QB when Trevor got anointed. And other Texas players quit during the regular season in 2020 when the conference championship was off the table.

My guess is the coaches felt the team’s floor/ceiling wasn’t going to change materially with Nico playing QB. No one in Knoxville will be very understanding with 7-5.

Looks like the market has spoken. Good.

Looks to me like people are more worked up about a marginal player than one wanting more money. Let’s not forget that the one thing which binded a player to a school was and remains a year to year deal because the schools like it that way.

None at all. He definitely played the underdog role to his advantage.

It was the bed wetter crowd who started with the good natured “limo” nickname Chris got and twisted it around. Then claimed Mack cut a deal with Phil Simms to curry favor with the NFL. And then sided with plucky Major at every turn, even though Chris was far popular with his teammates.

He lives in my town. Huge Texas fan.

Do they host successful podcasts?

We aren’t going to get everyone we want. And everyone we want won’t necessarily pan out.
