Mack Brown didn't have to compete with an hot A&M team coming after a Johnny Manziel Heisman trophy, Or an Elite Baylor Team plus A&M opened up the floodgates to other SEC schools..

Appreciate the heads up from you all, back to CS... on top him cutting ties with players Mack Brown didn't do UT any favors evaluating talent his last 3 or 4 years, for one he chose Swoops over several very capable Qbs including JT Barret... Mack had Two or Three kids Drafted that were left of his players the last 3 seasons reasons the Talent pool was believe it or not dry. Texas Recruiting classes had not been top 10 people say UT recruits itself but Baylor, TCU, were on the rise and A&M left for the SEC opening the floodgates for other SEC schools to Cherry pick Texas recruits.. Others say Texas had unlimited resources but that was not true under New A.D. Patterson who was also fired for rubbing the boosters and other people the wrong way.. He cut a lot of the athletic budget..

Please do your research UT was run like a country club during Browns Tenure.. When Strong arrived the players were soft.. he kicked most of those guys after giving them chance after chance to get their act right

Thanks for the welcome guys let me start off by saying im a huge CS fan, and was also a Texas fan, but a lot of that has Faded... I've been reading this board on the regular since CS has been hired and I'm excited to be aboard.. One of the main reasons I decided to join is because I seen a post in which someone mentioned the uncertainty of Charlie Strong and the way him and his players interacted or the way they loved him.. to be brutally honest I've never seen players take to a coach like they do CS please go to YouTube and watch some of the longhorn network interviews and videos... Mack Brown was a legend but not even he had the effect on his players as CS does... I honestly wanted CS to succeed so bad but honestly he was done before he started.. I have much more but I'm just off the clock catch you guys later.. GO BULLS
