Houston board chair: Applewhite 'better win 9, 10, 11 games a year'
Alex ChippinDec 9 2016, 1:40 PM
Never one to hide his feelings, Houston board of regents chair Tilman Fertitta issued a stern warning to new head coach Major Applewhite, hours after the program announced his promotion from offensive coordinator.

"I think you can look forward to Major being here for many years, but he better win nine, 10, 11 games a year, too, from our standpoint," he told reporters Friday afternoon. "We did get rid of a coach that won eight games three years ago, don't ever forget that. We expect to win at the University of Houston."

They ended up with the Gordita Hunter because no smart up-and-coming coach is going to sign a ridiculous buyout to handcuff themselves to UH. If the coogs were smart, they would have kept the buyout low and got another top candidate instead of Tony Levine Part II. They are always going to be a stepping stone. The Big 12 made sure of that. At least they could keep a string of good coaches coming through.

Higher expectations than A&M. Sad.

If Applewhite exceeds Strong expectations the sips might go 6-6

Why did you bold random words?


Nevermind, I see it's Yell Practice. You'll bump this random thread in July of 2019 with a random "Happy Kwanzaa, Ags"

A Major hire with Major expectations. Hopefully it won't be a Major bust or Majorly bad things might happen. Blatant pun.

Yep. Just like Cougar High got rid of the bdf because they had bigger plans. And just like I kicked Kate Upton out of my bed this morning because she had bad breath.

Gordita Hunter!

I went to school with his wife from elementary thru high school. Classless move on Opie's part. Really surprised it didn't end his coaching career. Buena suerte, mofo.

Right, because our schedules are soooo similar.

So we should expect less because we are in a tougher conference? BS! That's what's wrong with the football culture at A&M. We have low expectations for our team. We need to demand MORE out of this program. It doesn't matter who we play. We EXPECT to win every game because losing sucks!

Someone better register that domain before Brazzers does! Seems to really capture two niches.

"I think you can look forward to Major being here for many years"

Translation: Win and you're stuck here. No one is touching the buyout we slapped on you.

"But he better win nine, 10, 11 games a year, too, from our standpoint,"

Translation: Lose and you're fired.

Sounds like a great deal, Major!

Not exactly the vote of confidence I would have hoped for if I were Major.

When we are no good it's so much fun to make fun of others.

Not bolding random words. It's because Major has been trained in a variety of positions but never received head coaching position before. Comprende?

Uh, the words "coaching" and "Applewhite" were both bolded. You really can't get any more random than that

Good luck Major! One sip I have always liked. Also think he got the raw end of the deal due to Chrissy Sims. Applewhite was a far better QB.

I read that as he had a wife from elementary thru high school. That would have been something.
