I don't find any of these "good coach" arguments persuasive. We need to completely change our thinking. Go full money ball. Find a no name coach that would give anything just for the opportunity. Give him a couple hundred K, pay bonus for each win. Completely change the compensation model. There are different aspects to coaching too. Recruiting, managing the organization, game theory and strategy. There may be a great strategist but he has no experience with the day to day business decisions, being a kind of CEO. Ok, well get good assistants to delegate that kind of stuff too. We have nothing to lose, this is an opportunity to try some interesting experimentation.


Posted this before and agree with it. The chance of success is the same.
This is essentially what happened with Dabo Swinney.

Why not search the NFL and CFL to see if you can find a brilliant assistant young coach that is hungry and has a killer instinct to win.

My guess is someone like LSU's DC Dave Aranda may be a forward thinking get, barely in his 40s, an impressive defensive pedigree, presently in the SEC, and Texas background via a stint in Houston and time as GA at Tech.


Not the sexist choice, but maybe the most forward thinking.

I think there is a lot of truth in some of the posters comments about "opportunity for experimentation and not having much to lose, etc."

I think the Sumlin program has proven to be incomplete and overpriced. It seems now that change may be in the works.

love aggiehorns' approach. ive often thought how many dynamic, honest, hardworking, great coaches are out there that would love to be given the reigns to TAMU for less than $1M.

Finding a "right" one would entail more work and some luck, but i dont think necessarily any more risk.
