Without buying, er, recruiting Vince Young, he doesn't sniff a title.

This is the first time I've ever heard someone accuse Brown of illegal recruitment of VY. Have some proof there, partner?

It's not Mack per se doing anything illegal - it is the whole culture down here. He doesn't need to be involved in anything unethical because the community does it for him and EVERYONE turns a blind eye if they know what is good for them. I have lived near campus for 20 years and every day I see UT athletes being treated like kings and living above the means you would expect of students in their situation.

They expect to be better next year only osing 1 person off their two deep on defense and a handful on offense. Will be interesting to see who their starting QB is, could be another RS freshman if Matthews beats out current QB Boykin

But they draw more people to away games than SMU does to its home games and they arguably had more people at the SMU-TCU game this year.

UT is panicky. They are seeing it slip away in a manner that does not seem like a fluke or in any way temporary. A&M is now the flagship state football program and Sumlin could be there forever. If you are a young black athlete that thinks he has a pro career - who would you rather play for - Sumlin or washed up old happy talk guy Mack Brown? and dont even get me started on our collection of fossils.

I think aggie was brilliant (hard to beleive i can use those two words in the same sentence) to distance themselves. UT is just so machovilian that you cant stay close to them without ending up knifed in the alley at some point.

All I'm saying is don't accuse the man of doing something like that unless you have done proof. You don't have to like him, but don't discredit the man's reputation. He's a great recruiter. Not a great coach. Not his fault UT overpays him by about $4 million per year.
