Steve Sarkisian named head coach at Texas

[primal defense]

TFB reporting that they don't think Lanning was offered the job. There are more candidates Sark wants to speak with. Thinks it was just used to gain some leverage.

Sark didn't offer.

Don't be surprised if its lupoi Chip reporting that texas is in contact, just cross your fingers and hope hes gotten better 

FCB is clueless. He doesn’t know whether he’s taking a shit or winding his watch.

Lanning was definitely offered. I guess it doesn’t really matter other than to stroke our own egos, but we were told no.

Hell yeah he's a mouthpiece for CDC.

P

Hell yeah he's a mouthpiece for CDC.

The only reason CDC would have told him about Lanning is to out him.

I predict the DC will be ---------------- in place by Feb. 1.

I saw that and I think what they are saying is very plausible. Lanning's agent pretty much orchestrated all of this and/or the Georgia side did.

oh....he may have been offered....I just think the Great Satin told him that he was getting the Bama job as soon as it was politically correct for him to jettison the current guy....

[DBOOK23]

There were so many good candidates out there.... I cannot believe we didn't try to go grab Derek Mason

 

[Soldierhorn]

I rather not take a chance on if Lupol improved even though he's a great recruiter.

After some early struggles during the season, Saban stripped Lupoi of defensive play-calling responsibilities and handed them over to co-defensive coordinator Pete Golding, according to sources. Saban had poached Golding from UT-San Antonio in the offseason in part to alleviate concerns about Lupoi’s inexperience with the secondary and as a play-caller. Still, word is Lupoi seemed overwhelmed during practices and didn’t totally grasp situational play-calling. While he was still heavily involved in the defensive game-planning, there was no question Golding taking over play-calling represented a demotion of sorts for Lupoi barely into the start of his defensive coordinator stint. Additionally, it was clear within the program how much Saban valued Golding, especially given he fended off other schools including Ole Miss in order to keep Golding at Alabama. It gave Lupoi reason enough to look for a soft landing place once Alabama’s season ended.
