Steve Sarkisian named head coach at Texas

Sark is having a media availability today to announce his staff

 

[TexCoyote]

You know one thing I wonder about is will Sark be able to do the game planning and call plays with the demands that are placed on the head coach at Texas. There are so many things a Texas coach has to do at Texas during the week that it’s going to be hard. I’m sure he’s thought about it and we’ll see but it’s going to be a heck of a challenge. I doubt any school in the country has more demands on their head coach than Texas. I am sure the young guy he is bring from Alabama will help a lot but it’s going to be interesting

Wait. Stoops or no? 
 

God please be no. 

 

[primal defense]

He's not the coordinator...

He's not making the defensive calls...

We don't know what he adds to the defensive coaches room...

We do know he knows what doesn't work against Big 12 defenses...   

He has worked with Sark...

And he's just recruiting and coaching defense...  

and he will not be coaching at UT.

God please be no. 

That rumor thankfully got shut down this morning.

Maybe the BMD stepped in ?

The fan overreaction is priceless.  It's not like the dude was going to be the DC.  Obviously, he can coach a position.

He hasn’t coached linebackers for 30 years.

If he’s planning on hiring someone this afternoon he’s “excited” about then I doubt they were runner up to Mikey. 

Sark might have needed to sweeten the pot for who he really wanted and was needing some extra $$. He floats the next choice (Mike) out there and suddenly they found some more money to get who he originally wanted.

Yea, was comical. Dude was def coming until the reactions from people that matter.  Coaches started “following” him on twitter and all the works. I’d be lying  if I say I didn’t throw up in my mouth when I read it though

Maybe your right, long as it works. I believe he def floated it out there that he was hiring him after reading some folks in depth Twitter investigation lol way more time on their hands then I got

There should be a Sark presser today between 1 and 2 to announce the new staff.

Too damn funny

Not saying it's related, but Tim DeRuyter got the Oregon DC job.

That was one Lupoi was linked to.

?? Lupoi would be a home run hire... As only a position coach, I wouldn't expect him to stay too long though.

Will this be on LHN or anywhere to view?

If it's him, I'm guessing he'll get a co-DC title.

Ha!  His defenses absolutely owned the early Mack Brown offenses.

Please don’t assume the comment above means was / am rooting for Mike to Texas.  Just a little perspective, that’s all.

 This will be a   Zoom call
