Steve Sarkisian - (Cutty Sark after Dark, Texas HC)



"What has come out of this for me is this: We have a group of young men who have a great deal of perseverance, who are very close knit and who stick together," Sarkisian said. "They've already been through a six-month amount of time of ups, downs, ins and out, and everyday that we show up at six in the morning for workouts, they’re there, shirts tucked in, on the line and ready to go. That's what really good teams have."

Give him two years of dealing with the Tejas boosters who think they own the program, and Steve will find a bottle to crawl into. Most dysfunctional college football program by a mile, and nothing has fundamentally changed about it.

IDK if I'd go that far about them being dysfunctional. I'd put scUM over them, and I'd add Free Shoes, Auburn, LSU and Miami into that convo.
But the Tejas boosters will be up his arse the entire summer, and into the fall. They are expecting a Big 12 championship in year 1, because they've done nothing but brag about getting Bama's OC that won last year's NC in a blowout. So in turn, he's going to turn UT's offense into a similar juggernaut, RIGHT :roll1:
When UT loses to a team that in their minds they shouldn't lose to(i.e. Iowa St, Kansas St, Ok St, Baylor), the heat from the boosters will make a summer in Houston look like nothing. Sarkisian doesn't have a 1 year grace period at a place like UT, who hasn't been nationally relevant in years(yes, they won a NY6 bowl, that no one really cared about), and has been absolutely OWNED by it's biggest rival

The last NC winning OC they hired seemed to work out well. So, they’ve got that going for them.

I think the toxic booster culture down there takes them to another level over tsun, and we still haven't had time to gauge the impact that the song controversy will have on recruiting. The only school really in their league in that regard is Auburn, where the foosball boosters literally control the Board of Trustees.

Dude, boosters of pretty much all the SEC schools run their respective states. And all of their boosters are toxic, its just that most of the schools aren't very good and haven't won consistently in years. UT is certainly bad, I lived in Austin for a few years and had season tickets, and the city isn't as enthralled about the program as the SEC, or even Tallahassee.
But he's going to be in the middle of an interesting cultural clash as well over the fight song, and that's in a lose-lose scenario. And good luck keeping the top Texas talent home, because it's resembling how FL schools can no longer keep their top talent at home either with 3 schools in state. Texas is eerily close to becoming scUM, the only thing propping them up is having some in state talent to fall back on. scUM doesn't have enough in state talent that still grew wanting to don that jersey, Texas still has a good number of towns where kids want to don the burnt orange. But I doubt it's enough to overcome Oklahoma in conference, and they still don't have enough talent to beat some of the mid tier teams consistently, especially when a coach can make a great name for himself beating UT
