Chip Brown

he can do a tremendous amount of good in that role if he chooses to. it is a very big mistake to be vindictive or continue to attack him. he is doing the right thing, no matter how hard it might have been.
100% agreed.

 
Great news except for the hanging around part. He needs to leave and not meddle
Disagree. Mack needs to stick around and be the fundraising dude. He'd be killer at that, not to mention he still has super great relationships with high school coaches all over the state. You don't want someone like that to simply walk away.

 
I'm cancelling my OB subscription over this dynamic. They are so far behind on these things its not even funny.
In fairness, I believe Chip was just making it official.

 
he would take DKR's position as an ambassador. its not going to be hanging around the new coach trying to have input, and JS is reporting the terms of his buyout will be higher than Chip is reporting

 
To those who are saying OB is so behind... I wholeheartedly disagree with you. They are the first to report it OFFICIALLY. It's one thing for a site to say it's gonna happen, whereas it's completely different to report it officially. OBs does a fantastic job, and they still manage to maintain their integrity.

How is it more official when they report it than when McPhaul, Shaunsters, etc reports it?

Don't be so insecure, people know that THIS site broke this (specifically Mack stepping down) and it will grow your prestige and credibility.

In the mean time, Chip is a respected journalist who is confirming what you guys broke.

Someone on OB said it better than me.

Others might be able to report smoke, rumors, and salacious gossipy stuff. The simple fact is that Chip reports as a legitimate media member. There is a difference in the standard of proof from sources as well as credibility beyond the blog worlds.

That's no knock on anyone associated with this or any other board. That's just how it is.

Totally agree with this. We all know it was hard to step away, hell it would have been for any of us. But Mack is Mack and he will be great for the University for years to come. Plus he and sally will be able to rest in the mountain air of NC much more now, not a bad thing at all.

May God truly bless this next chapter in your life, Mack Brown. Thank you for all you have done for this program.

And guys remember, You don't know what you got till it's gone. Mack have a bit of an ego but in the end he did the right thing, Thanks again.

 
Why would Nick / any respectable coach want to come here and have Mack still in the picture? Like DKR, Mack needs to go away for awhile let all the emotions settle let the new coach get settled and then return to be what ever it is they want him to do. Just my 2 cents....

 
I don't think that would work with Saban and Mack. Can you imagine the tension?
Guys, do y'all realize how many former Texas football HC's are associated with The University? I think it's 3 or 4. The position is NOTHING more than fundraising and gladhanding.

That they tied it to the BOR makes it ridiculous as the BOR cannot discuss anything not on the published agenda.
