I’ve never seen an entire coaching staff and a dozen or so players at the same time, pillaged from a team. And definitely not while they were playing a national championship game.

I keep asking.. and none of you will answer.. unless I missed it.

When would you have preferred he left? In April or May? Would your answer be the same if you had won on Monday? Leaving back then would have helped Texas too.. but you might not have finished 2nd..

My God, it’s not that he left. Anyone is free to do so, and it happens all the time.

What this man did is give zero indication that he was actively in talks with a school 90 miles down the road while we were preparing for the biggest game this program has ever played. I’ll let you decide whether his mind was 100% into the game.

He was picking and choosing which players to contact during this process, ensuring that his chosen few would follow him to his new destination, while leaving others out, not responding to their direct questions, etc. (there are numerous receipts and tweets from players out there corroborating this). This was not a “team” mentality by any stretch of the imagination.

He very clearly was securing NIL deals for these chosen players, as well as involving his entire staff with the entire operation, until the very end.

This has been going on for months. What do you think he was telling A&M recruits in the process? Do you think he was being honest and open to them and their families about his plans? Was he being honest and open with his supervisors and colleagues at A&M? Was he being honest and open with his entire team?

So the short answer I guess is yes, I wish he had been open and honest back in April. At least then, we could have mitigated some of this damage. He’s been actively and willingly destroying a program that entrusted him with our athletes and their families. That 24 hours earlier, he was professing to love and respect. And then he lashed out and started calling others selfish when he was asked about it.

I thought better of you BigBro. I know you can’t think this is ok.

It’s about the coordinated efforts to pillage the entire program while still being employed.
