I have seen one article mentioning $4 mil for 8 years. I have seen one article saying it is not true. Consider the coach not the terms. I think our group remembers what we just went through.

Can anyone imagine when we hired JJ what the response would have been if we told them 6 years later MB would be the next. They would have thought JJ took us to a BCS game.

i will say there is ZERO chance we have offered anyone an 8 year contract, unless it has a very quickly diminishing buyout.

i would offer him a 4 year deal, that refreshes another 4 yrs every time he wins 10 games

If we hire the right coach we will not keep them more than 3 years unless we get P5. Just put a huge buyout for the first 2 years and play it by ear.

Hey I got an idea-since Brown needs a great Coordinator-and no one seems to be out there on the Offensive side in his Coaching Tree-why don't we steal Lincoln Riley who is getting peanuts at ECU. Let him have free rein on offense. He's only 31-may not get a Head Coaching job this year(although I bet he gets a P5 OC offer this year) . Bring him home to Texas-let him continue to develop. I'd love that idea

If 8 years 32 mil guaranteed the other school would have to pay 20 mil after 3 years to get him. Think they would do that? Not trying to be a smart alec just asking.

Best of both strategies

Mack the manager, school representative, closer

and the hot shot young coordinator to implement an exciting offense

and we could definitely steal Riley

I never said one word about 8 years 32 million guaranteed. Those are your made up terms. All I said was hire a good coach put together a good contract with a high buyout for the first 2 years. Quit fixating on the rumored money and then adding a guarantee.

So I am making up the guarantee. Fine if that is what you think.

I do not have any evidence of the money and the term. Yet you have knowledge of a guarantee.

You are right it can't be possible.

You just keep on taking pieces of whatever you think is worst and claim it to be true.

I have had enough of this Brown stuff. I am going back to the Houston Nutt bandwagon.
