I don't see it. College has equal or more pull compared to the NFL for to top Head coaches these days, especially if the coaches can work with the transfer portal frequency for and against.

Steve made 10.3mil last year. That's double what MM got here.

I doubt Jerry would want to pay any coach a guaranteed 10mil+ per year.

He's not leaving Texas but Even so do I need to mention every one thought Nick Saban and Urban Meyer and Bobby petrino and Chip Kelly and others that have been great college coaches failed in the NFL why would he leave that comfortable gig his names not in the hat i don't think you're bringing him here....

Mainly because he's not ready to leave Texas he just getting started in the SEC he's just seeing this through do you think he wants to give up a chance the coach arch manning now they're going into the arch manning phase of the SEC transition this is what he's been building towards. I'm a Longhorn fan and I think that Sark is good but I don't think he's anything special I just think he's a really good coach but Nick Saban was out of this world Urban Meyer these dudes were like top notch college coaches that couldn't get it done....

I mean if we're gonna bring his name in it how about the Georgia head coach or the Clemson head coach or there's other ones that people are talking about Notre Dame I mean these guys are also worth the mention but one are they interested in two remember the list I just gave you up there those dudes failed show me the last actual college superstar head coach that came into the NFL and had success and don't say Harbaugh Jim Harbaugh is already an NFL guy and he just came back....

But truly who's the last blue chip superstar big name head coach from college that was super successful then came over and was successful in the NFL I'm just curious...

I mean, I get what you're saying, but you must know that getting a quality coach is going to be a challenge. So, I'm trying to look at options. I heard Greeny mention Sark on the PMS as someone who might be lurking for a possible NFL option. As I thought of it, it made sense to me. It's certainly been some time since a blue chip college coach has made it to the NFL. However, with NIL, the college game is becoming more NFL-like now. So, it makes sense to at least look there since we might have some difficulty getting quality coaching from NFL sides without getting retreads.

Exactly.......with NIL and transfer portals, he's already coaching a simi-pro team where he's coach and GM. No academic standards, no NCAA rules, no regulation and you have over $100M to recruit.

Look I'm a Longhorn fan and I'm telling you the defensive coordinator and what that defense is doing is more impressive than what Sark is doing he is the OC and the head coach and I see a lot of issues with our offense at times but sure I think he'd make a great offensive coordinator to start in the NFL to see if he's even worth a head coaching job but he's not available he's not interested but I'm not sure the transition would be much different than Meijer or Saban or Chip Kelly or all those guys I mentioned in my other post Bobby petrino I mean come on Urban Meyer they didn't make it over here...

But if you look at Texas and again I'm a Longhorn fan what that defense has done the last two years is far more impressive it looks like a prostyle defense then what the system created on offense with Sark I don't know man I do like all the motion and misdirection but I'm not sure how that would workout and again I'm a huge Longhorn fan I'm just telling you why bring up a name and he's not interested he's never came up and said he'd be interested in leaving and I'm telling you I believe he started something and he hasn't finished it yet they literally wanna win the SEC he wants to do it with arch manning so I don't think that's on the table right now I know he has an ego big enough to coach in the NFL..

Well, perhaps the Texas DC might make a good HC option? Either way, maybe we can find some new ideas from the college ranks.

Leave UT where is is viewed as a God to come coach for the two hoopleheads Jerry and Stephen? Any coach who made that transition would be someone running away from something horrific or is mentally unsound.

Like Meyer from OSU, who then flamed out quickly in the NFL

No Jerrys not looking for a college ie GREEN coach that's never been a head coach in the NFL,

he's too old for that and you keep calling him retreads but half the NFL replaces their coaches with these alleged retreads they're in the NFL because they can coach in the NFL you can call him a retail if you think that negative connotation if it makes you feel better,

but there's a reason that the first names come up is Mike McCarthy with the bears ,Ryan with The Jets ,you don't call that a retread lots of teams do it , I mean Rivera was Washington's last coach and what do they do turn around and get dan quinn he's now going to the playoffs, that kind of retread? But let me be even more clear I know people don't like Mike McCarthy but when he was hired in 2020 he was the best coach now that we have all the data we need.. Who has the highest win percentage ever by a Dallas cowboy coach I believe we also go look at his record from 2020 up until this year he still has one of the best win percentages the best records he did the best out of all those coaches hired in 2020 so as much as you guys feel like there's something better out there I don't like him as an offensive coordinator but these are the type of coaches most NFL teams hire.

i think in this case you're barking up the wrong tree at the wrong time.. If Jerry was interested in doing that he would not have resigned lamb or Prescott and he's probably gonna resign Parsons he believes in his mind the window's still open enough I don't think he wants some green coach from the college ranks nor does he really want probably a first time head coach even though Ben Johnson or Glenn they might end up being good head coaches I don't think he wants to start there because there's no guarantee they're gonna be good coaches either not unless they have a loaded all in team....

So again, we're telling you that we don't think Sark would even be slightly interested but I don't think Jerry would even be slightly interested so this is a move close it up now and it is not coming to the NFL not at least for the next three years I doubt it.......

He makes $10M+/yr. The Benny Hill show that is running our front office has shown no proclivity to pay that for a coach. And if they did, no doubt TX would up the ante to $15M or some such, and neither clown would want to get into a bidding war for a coach. I mean, they expect their coaches to come here and beg for crumbs.

Jerry says he doesn't want a college coach.... even though the ONLY success he has EVER had in the NFL is with the 2 college coaches he hired! He's so smart....

He only says things like that in justification of hiring a retread like McCarthy, who will just be glad to be employed.

Can you imagine that negotiation - Stephen offers - we'll pay you 2 million a year along with all the papa johns you can eat (only single topping though).

Maybe not. I'd personally like Glenn or Johnson as the next coach. The only of those two would likely be Glenn.

Plus, I like McCarthy. Frankly, compared to a lot of the likely options Jerry would go with (including Rivera and Moore), I'd rather we keep McCarthy. That said, I'm not sure McCarthy will want to stay. So, if McCarthy leaves, that's where the look at alternative options comes in. Frankly, Moore seems like a Jason Garrett 2.0, and Rivera, maybe a good option, but his clock management in Washington was terrible. Plus, I'm not sure he'd want to work for Jerry after having worked for Snyder. I think he probably ends up something like being Vrabel 's DC in New England or something.

So, while Jerry probably will go with an experienced coach (hopefully one with more imagination on offense, and one that values the run game), I personally would rather a young coach if we can't keep Mike.

I don’t believe Jerry would be willing to pony up the buyout of Sark’s contract. As high as $54 million and then pay Sark well over $10 million per year which is what he makes now. UT’s football program is run by smart people. The Dallas Cowboys are run by stupid people.
