Somewhere between 6 and 7
Doubtful sheâs been involved as the University system has had to hire 2 other high profile positions this week (UH downtown prez and VP of Research). She was also in Austin last week talking to the legislature and there was a Board of Regents meeting last week prior to that. Thatâs after getting back from her trip in Asia where I believe she was when our coach left us. She been extremely busy lately.
I think it should be 10 the first year, especially since A&M will probably be coming open. Then 7, then 5. If we are giving him a 5 year contract somewhere over 15 million, then he should have no problem with that.
Maybe this is our way of getting A&M and UT to indirectly share the PUF with us.
These 2 inferior programs will never share anything with usâŠwe have to march up to Austin in and take whatâs rightfully ours.
Tilman didnât lie. Thereâs no offer to make until the decisionmaker (Renu) authorizes Tilman/Hunter to make the offer. Doesnât mean that the terms arenât in place in the event an offer is made - thatâs already been negotiated.
Is this an exercise in semantics? Of course. But that doesnât make Tilman a liar - far from it.
Exactly. Itâs not like he told recruits and players heâs not leaving and then tells his agent to shop him around to other schools in the middle of the season
In all likelihood terms have been outlined and agreed to in principle for potential offers for ALL of the finalists. Iâve never received a formal job offer when I didnât already know what was in it.
Houston Cougars to hire Alabama OC Lane Kiffin as next coach
.
Ed Oliver just followed Kiffin on twitter fwiw.
Houstonâs potential Kiffin hiring a blow to minority coaches
.
Iâm calling BS.
Iâm not a person thatâs generally dismissive of articles that talk about race, but wow. That article was particularly vapid. Love him or hate him, Kiffin has a substantially better resume than someone like Ruffin McNeill.
Mac Engel is a joke of a writer. Always writing something to try to upset people. He named one minority coach who isnât given a chance (a poor example too since we would never hire a coach fired by a lesser program) and no real alternatives that are getting over looked. Why even connect us to this? Itâs not like we are ignoring good minority coaches.
He should be harping on tu and not us. What an idiot. At least, we conducted a national search and we didnât go and steal someoneâs coach.
The article was nonsense (weâve had African American coaches stolen in-state. How horrible we are).
What was kind of cool was how he kept referring to us as a major program. No, Iâm not joking. He wrote it half a dozen times.
UH is a major program. Is located in one of the biggest & more famous known cities. With a big population that produces the best athletes in the world. Major reason why Big 12 and other schools hate for us to join a P5 conference. Too much of a major threat to the landscape of College Football. They can spin it all they want, but itâs true.
Ruffin McNeil shouldnât have been fired by ECU in the first place so that poor example is itself a poor example

Correct and this has been articulated to us.
I agree, Ruffin McNeill is not perfect and doesnât have the it factor that many of the up and comers have but he had East Carolina on solid ground and would not have left them for a bigger better deal. Southern Miss did the same thing to Jeff Bower and look what happened there. Larry Fedora and Todd Monken left as soon as they were successful and Ellis Johnson was disastrous.
