I'm not opposed to it. I just don't understand it.
I was contacted a couple of times. But I didn't go for the interview (either time).
I'm happy for Mack. No one can talk about him not winning a conference title anymore. And hopefully we'll be able to stop talking about how Texas hasn't won a national title since way back when.
I hope so, and I know Coach Brown hopes so.
We've had some good contests in the last year; at the Rose Bowl, and up there in Columbus, that's about as big as it gets.
I didn't want to stay until I had used up all the enjoyment because that's too long to stay anywhere.

Winning coaches must treat mistakes like copperheads in the bedclothes - avoid them with all the energy you can muster.

I know that the odds are against a marriage lasting 60 years.
