I've read some (and I'm sure there's plenty more info if I searched around more) but just wanted to get the informed folks to weigh in on why this guy is our #1 target. I admittedly don't know a whole lot about his background and just want to be educated. I know he has strong Texas ties but that is about it. And obviously Clemson has had some success recently

A lot of people look at him and see the next Briles/Malzahn.

I think it is because his name is easy to spell. And spelling is difficult for some of us.

Dabo Swinney's record as a HC before Morris: 19-15
Dabo Swinney's record as a HC with Morris: 34-10
Offensive innovator who led the ACC in offense multiple times with Morris as OC
Extremely strong ties to Texas High Schools (former president of Texas HS coaches association)
Yeah, we should take a look at him.

I don't know, SMU2007. This thread sounds a bit like someone daring to question the wisdom of the WDNWHA Committee, and we ALL know how that turns out. Best kill this thing and go about your business.

Very good point. Does the WDNWHA Committee's authority extend to coaching searches or just recruiting? If that question is not allowable, I'm ok with that too.

The WDNWHA Committee has extended to include the coaching search. However we never stand in the way of personal opinion, nor do we announce our decision until final results are concluded, just was with the players.

I think SMU hits the jackpot with either Morris or Mack Brown.

We want Morris cause he is a better coach than Charlie Waters.
