Don't worry.

UT won't ever be as bad as FSU is now.

Well I said starting. UT as a program is much better than FSU in about every aspect like facilities/fan support/etc.

Winning isn't the top priority for Deloss Dodds.

Starting maybe, but you have a long way to go to sink to FSU's level. I dont even know if it is possible to suck as bad as them without being in the ACC.

The only way it could happen is if UT went to the ACC to play football.

I've been on the fence about Mack Brown. Not anymore. Many Texas fans were done with him in 2010. I thought he deserved at least a shot at turning the program around.He has shown that he is not that type of coach anymore. It's time for him to go.

He is the coach because the UT athletic department is far and away the most profitable in the US. Until UT decides that isn't the most important thing or it is threatened, they will continue to retain Mack and give him raises.

They'd be more profitable with a better coach.

It better well be his top priority. How much does that football program bring to school and to see these results it's pathetic. UT gets the top recruits and gets beat by 2 star programs.

This last week was horrible. I think Mac may need to go. Two years in a row, your main rival has put up 55+ points. Any other school would fire their coach. Why is Mac not even in the hot seat??

All the talent we have, there is NO excuse not be competative in that game!!

Lack of coaching at all levels!!

Diaz needs to be removed ASAP!!!

:c rying:

Hook Em!!

If Mack drops three in a row to Baylor he has to be in the hot seat. Fans can only take so much. They will stop showing up eventually. With all of the talent that UT gets their Big 12 record since 2009 is pathetic. I heard something like 7-13? That would be a .300 conference winning percentage over 2 years and counting. Wow. There is no excuse for that to go on for much longer in Austin.
