Chip reported it and it will happen. They denied Deloss Dodd was retiring after Chip reported it and then he stepped down just as reported. Mack is going to step down, he will announce by the Longhorn dinner Friday. I hope they don't get Saban though. I want a younger coach who can create a legacy and become part of Texas football history and culture, not a mercenary -- albeit a very very effective mercenary.
Look at where UT was before he got there. Getting raped 66-0 by UCLA at home. 16 years at the school and he had a total of 2 seasons with less than 9 wins. Not a UT fan, but respect where respect is deserved.

mack actually didnt want to recruit vince. somebody else in the recruiting/scouting department begged him to take a look and bring him so if thats true he lucked into a free title
I like Chip. I listen to him online sometimes, and I follow him on Twitter. I have no idea what's really happening here.
Earlier today, a report surfaced that Mack Brown had agreed to step down as head football coach at the University of Texas and move into a administrative role at the University. When reached by text moments ago, Brown refuted the story to Horns247. "I haven't seen (the) article," Brown wrote. "I'm in Florida recruiting. If I had decided to step down I sure wouldn't be killing myself down here. I have not decided to step down." Brown is expected to be in Florida for the next two days. He is expected to visit running back Dalvin Cook in Miami today and linebacker Andrew Beck in Tampa tomorrow. Additionally, sources tell Horns247 that Texas football staff has not been made aware of any such decision.
If he's seriously in Florida on a recruiting trip, I think it's doubtful he's on the verge of stepping down. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Oh snap, did Chip Brown Pac-12 the Mack story??</p>— Raheel Ramzanali (@The_Raheel) <a href="https://twitter.com/The_Raheel/statuses/410500672472092672">December 10, 2013</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
The part bolded had a tweet from Jeff Platt of ESPN behind it. The tweet just didn't show up when I copied it to here.
hmm....how about you tell me who recruited vince? [/QUOTE] I don't get the comparison. Because they are both black QB's??

Houston Chronicle corrected their headline to "UT denies reports." Yahoo! continues to report that Mack is stepping down.
