What's this?

But wait. Have you ever turned down a job knowing that a better one

After some more thought, here's another take on Sark and Texas -- Buffalo Bob 02/15/2021 8:59PM

Ultimately, it seems RG wanted a more vested, loyal coach -- mrc4buffs 02/18/2021 12:39AM

I thought it was Sark who turned us down? -- JeffGerardi 02/18/2021 08:29AM

Could be.. I don't recall who RG might have offered the job to first -- mrc4buffs 02/18/2021 12:44PM

Sark was RG’s #1 choice. He scrambled for KD. ** -- hawg1 02/18/2021 8:30PM

Virtually Identical Records. Arguably, Sark underachieved at his 2 schools -- Buffalo Bob 02/19/2021 1:51PM

So RG was wrong? ** -- hawg1 02/19/2021 3:30PM

Wrong about what? CU is not Texas. Two different levels. -- Buffalo Bob 02/19/2021 9:04PM

Could Alabama have won an NC with Dorrell as an assistant? I'd say, yes. ** -- Buffalo Bob 02/19/2021 1:52PM

Means nothing. ** -- hawg1 02/19/2021 3:29PM

At least half of the board here was praying Sark wouldn't be offered here. -- Buffalo Bob 02/18/2021 12:41PM

Mac Jones improved substantially. He lost his best WR and he devised a -- hawg1 02/18/2021 8:28PM

Right, but you asked what improved his stock from 2019 to 2020 ** -- JeffGerardi 02/18/2021 2:46PM

A true convert? -- 84Buff 02/17/2021 08:46AM

Dastardly deed? -- Buffalo Bob 02/17/2021 9:29PM

To what end? -- 84Buff 02/18/2021 08:58AM

I cannot assume he overcame some very tough personal issues -- Buffalo Bob 02/18/2021 11:23AM

CU is a perfect match -- 84Buff 02/18/2021 11:54AM

The Man, The Myth, The Legend. We are now in our 4th day of sobbing and -- Buffs4Ever 02/17/2021 2:48PM

You just said it better. :-) Thank you. ** -- Buffs4Ever 02/17/2021 8:01PM

KD is a good choice. Jury still out for me. Good start though. ** -- hawg1 02/17/2021 2:52PM

That's true, the jury is still out on KD. But we could support him in -- Buffs4Ever 02/17/2021 2:54PM

I’m encouraged about what appears to be uptick in 22 recruiting. Early, but -- hawg1 02/17/2021 3:03PM

Thinking about this yesterday, man the CU job opening -- JeffGerardi 02/17/2021 10:51AM

This was about his agent getting him a nice bump at Bama. -- SamSpade 02/16/2021 10:09AM

It worked. His O snd maturation of Mac Jones made him hot commodity this yr -- hawg1 02/16/2021 11:05AM

Would/Could he have gotten the Texas job last year? -- JeffGerardi 02/16/2021 11:13AM

Agree ** -- CUKev 02/16/2021 10:11AM

You aren't taking into account the level of job CU is -- JeffGerardi 02/16/2021 09:10AM

In a way, you’re making my point. -- Buffalo Bob 02/16/2021 1:59PM

You obviously don't know much about addiction and recovery -- Ribs and Whiskey 02/17/2021 12:35PM

Correct. Not a part of any recovery program I’ve seen. ** -- hawg1 02/17/2021 1:52PM

He can be humbled and still want a better job -- JeffGerardi 02/16/2021 3:18PM

But wait. Have you ever turned down a job knowing that a better one -- hawg1 02/15/2021 9:58PM

What I don’t get... -- CUKev 02/15/2021 9:55PM

Great stats.... -- SamSpade 02/16/2021 10:17AM

UT has money to throw at their problems -- WinningLeadership 02/16/2021 10:55AM
