Another interesting reach from 40 Acres....

Aggies playing their biggest Bowl Game in the last 20 years, and an Orange Bowl win certainly gives them a continuing voice with recruits.....and UT just "happens" to announce on the same day in order to get The Lead on ESPN.

Coincidence? I think not.

UT is not a happy place right now, and Del Conte better hope that "Urban 1A" works out.

$28M? He must have kept very few (if any) from the previous staff.

A six year deal? That's a hell of a commitment for a HC that hasn't had a 10 win season.
