I mentioned this to you guys some weeks Coker was the front runner. I spoke last night with my UTSA contact and he again said the Tulsa coach may have had a shot but he came across to arrogant/self-confident.

Don't know how Coker will do, but it will take quite awhile before UTSA is up and running.

Is Coker an offensive or defensive guy?

Must have been doing his Todd Graham routine - or maybe he demanded they put his picture on the equipment van - or he already wanted to change the school colors - :roll:

How do you go from winning a NC at Miami to coaching UTSA in just a few years?

Except for year one... and finishing second then 5th in the nation is hard to [deleted] about. In his first three years, he went 35-3. He did lose that team tho in the last couple of years and they turned into a thug team... and he is 60 or so.

Wow, UTA is now the biggest school in the country without a football. I recieved a masters at UTA so I have somewhat of a soft spot for the college :(

Sometimes not having a football team is not such a bad thing
