    In case anyone was wondering where Intern Charlie Strong is he's currently in the Bama Coaching Rehab Program. Do you think Intern Tom Herman will join him soon?

    I don't love Saban but he definitely brings in the best assistants. His ego can handle it. Mack had that ability also. Brought in people that he knew would be future head coaches.

    I never, ever did, and still do not understand why they let Akina go. Baffling.

    Saban's 23-0 against his former pupils.

    2022 @ Austin...get ready, it's gotta happen someday, right?

    UT should focus on hiring Christopher Nolan to direct a science-fiction movie where UT is actually good, starring McConaughey, instead of worrying about the sport - true?

    Hell, we don't need to hire a Jimbo to finish 3/4th in the conference...got that covered all by ourselves.

    I do miss when the Aggies were relevant and fun. Is RC still alive?

    The only time they are relevant is when they are buying cars for their players.

    At least we try hard and land people like Jimbo and Chavis (lulz). UT is hiring the guy USC tried to replace with a TAMU coordinator (Kingsbury) - lulz. I thought Herman was a homerun hire, but he sucked and Sark is terrible, let me laugh a little. Ultimately all the Texas teams suck now and that's sad.

    247 reporting that Bama OL coach Kyle Flood likely to follow Sark as Co-OC/OL coach. Huge get IMO.

    Per 247...

    A source tells me that Cal Strength & Conditioning coach Torre Becton is expected to join Steve Sarkisian's staff at Texas.

    No idea but IT is reporting that there will be a separate conditioning coach, same set up they have at Bama.

    Updated list of "potential" DCs per paysites. Freeman and Arnett seem to be the hot names right now with Freeman interviewing for the LSU gig yesterday and ND reportedly interested in Arnett. Ash is rumored to be a target for Dan Mullen and some think he could follow Urban to the NFL if he goes.

    Marcus Freeman - Cincinnati DC
    Zach Arnett - Mississippi DC
    Dan Quinn - Former Falcons HC
    Chris Ash - Texas DC
    Tosh Lupoi - Atlanta Falcons DL/OLB (former DC at Alabama)
    Peter Sirmon - Cal-Berkeley DC
    Derrick Mason - Vanderbilt HC
    John Glenn - Seattle Seahawks LB
    Pete Golding - Alabama DC
