🏈 ESPN says Texas will announce Sark as their Head Coach.

[mhardiman]

Just saying what I have heard. If he goes and proves himself AGAIN somewhere else than great but I don't think Texas is a good place to prove yourself with there internal issues but if he does there's no way you build a monster out of Texas and leave to take Bama. The job he was doing at USC isn't what got him fired, the sauce did. If you ask me the job he did at Washington then USC, as long as he can stay sober he's proved enough to me. If he'd be patient and wait five years max he could inherit a vest wealth and asked to not screw it up.

I’m in “hang up and listen” mode on this one. Hear what all the in-the-know folks say.

Stephen M. Smith says Sark is gone. Take it fwiw...

Whole truck load of ‘ssuming going on there

That must have been the reason Sark withdrew from the Barn open slot. It will be very interesting about whether QB Young sticks around.

Don’t you mean #9????

 

[rick4bama]

So is he staying till after the CFP game?

 

[rocknthefreeworld]

ESPN just said confirmed and Saban says he will be staying with Bama until after the NCG.

I was just coming to say this very thing

Yeah, they did the "breaking news" thing.

 

[ElephantStomp]

So, with Sark going to the 40 who y’all think replaces him?

 

[rammerjammer]

I don’t know if it will happen, but it has been estimated that Freeze is making about 3.5 mil at Liberty. We could pay him that to be the OC. I would love to see what he could do with the talent Saban pulls in.

As far as Sark, I think Texas was fairly young and will have a decent amount of talent when he gets there. I could see this being a similar situation as to what Kirby stepped in to a several years back. All Sark needs is a QB, and we know he can find and coach one of those.

 

[rick4bama]

So does Coach have and OC in his back pocket? Are he have to go out and find one? I know we have Strong as one of those analyses , but he a DC type ? Right?

Strong was a DC. This is being managed text book gentlemen, I would not be shocked to get an announcement that we have a new OC the day after the NC game.

My top choices would be:

1. Freeze
2. Sumlin
3. Herman
4. Tony Elliott

I know Coach has some magic so he can help those coaches that have fell on hard time! (Kiffin, Sark Jones) But I don't know if he can do anything with Freeze. Sumlin, Herman maybe,. Would he go after a coach from Clemson?

I would absolutely go after a coach from Clemson. He has done really well and they have given us some problems over the years. Would weaken Dabo as well. They looked absolutely lost without him in the box last night.

 

[bama alum]

I think Herman for Sark is a good trade. I think the OC @ Ole $i$$ might be a good hire (definitely not for $3.5 million).

 

[Davestwin]

And by the way, this is the same guy that broke the Stoops to Auburn story. Bob, not Mike.

Oh, and the same guy that broke Miss Terry was in Austin shopping for a house...

Oh, and the same guy that broke A&M wasn't leaving the Big 12 ..

Oh, and the same guy ...

Being looked at, being vetted, considering options...not the same as being hired.

Looks like it wasn’t the same guy.

 

[bamafan4ever]

So, we play Sark in 22 and 23. Interesting.

 

[It Takes Eleven]

If he does go, who would be a good replacement?

Kiffin.
