- Ok, nothing against Scotty, but he is in over his head. We need a coach that is a little older than six or seven years than the boys he is coaching. I am going to say two names that have already been brought up, some want some don't, Briles and Freeze. First Briles. The NCAA never found anything on him and never sanctioned him but they did his assistant coaches. He is coaching high school football in Texas and is doing well. If he will work for high school pay to get his foot back in the door he would take what we could pay him to get back into college coaching. He doesn't need the money, (he is a millionaire) several times over. He just wants the chance and if we give it to him he would bring us back to respectability and to a point to where we could pay him more or he would either leave. Or he just might stay because we gave him a chance. Now Freeze. If he came, we would win, and he can recruit. Unlike Briles, who would appreciate us giving him a chance, Freeze would leave for a P-5 job if it is the one he covets as soon as it is offered to him. That is okay though, because that means he has made a winner out of us and made him and us look good, and by doing so he will leave us in good shape for the next young OC to come in and make his mark for three or four years and he will move on. Hopefullly one day the wheel will stop and we will have made enough progress that we can afford to pay a coach to want to stay and we will have built up our attendance, alum and donations. Until that day, if we don't want to have to drop down a level or two, we need to take a chance on Briles or Freeze. Guys, this is the bottom of the ninth, two out, and bases are loaded and we are down by three, and if we want to stay in the game we have to take a chance. No more taking a chance on coaches that want to retire here, or they want this to be the last job of their career. It is time to roll the dice and get a winner. It doesn't matter if we are their stepping stone or not, it happens to all G-5 schools all the time. We do it to. If someone offers us a better job for more money we have to consider our family and our future. We are no different except no one is offering us millions a year to be an accountant, or chef or teacher. But remember this old saying, and it still holds true today, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! If you don't believe me just look at, EJ, JH, and how they ruined our program and we still have't recovered and we won't unless we make the right choice.
