Hire Major Applewhite
Why not?
The Dallas UT fan base still loves him, he has been recruiting Texas for a long time now. I don't care if he is not the best OC, he can hire good coaches, he has a name that would attract assistants and recruits.
From UT to Rice to Alabama back to Texas and now jobless....Let's go get him!!!

Why do we care if the Dallas UT fan base loves him?

Re: Hire Major Applewhite
I'd take him as an OC or QB coach...that's about it though
Re: Hire Major Applewhite

Re: Hire Major Applewhite
No OC. MAYBE a QB but that would never fly upstairs.
No reason to do that. Lots of good candidates.

Report about Major Applewhite applying for the #SMU job is interesting to say the least. - EJ Holland
Looks like 1/2 of AppleBowden is willing. For what its worth. I have not seen a WDNWHA post about him yet.
