It speaks volumes when Gary Patterson, to who I hold in high regard, is a better coach than anyone Texas has had, even Mack Brown, who only has a NC because Vince Young overcame Mack Brown and Greg Davis ineptitude.
I agree that Texas has had bad QB's, but it has been magnified by the EXTEMELY bad play of the OL. Bryan Harsin was a decent OC, but he couldn't overcome a shyt OL and QB's that he didn't recruit. He wisely got out of town before Mack was fired.
Trust me when I say that their OL is bad. Buechele may not be a Heisman calibre QB, but Texas should have a winning season.
This is where it begins and ends, Texas gets a lot of hype, but in the last 50 years has not done much, and despite all the money and talent that Texas draws/drew under brown has only won the big 12 what twice ??
The other issue is, the boosters rule the roost and nothing is going to change that unfortunately
Herman has shown his ineptitude early, I’m not impressed, (i know he still needs time, but i felt like the leash was short for strong, so forgive me if I’m not hyped to give him hella chances) and the one thing he was supposed to fix, he really didn’t (offense) honestly the defense saved him most games
Charlie Strong was a good coach that had an argues task of cleaning up a program that had fallen off big, he made sure the men excelled at academics, he got rid of problematic players, the issue was he did not have the staff around him, and he was not progressing the team field wise
