Interesting.

**rebecacy** · 04-21-2010, 01:16 PM

G Patterson was also contacted

**cyclone13** · 04-21-2010, 01:17 PM

GC was a good hire but I jremember I was really worried when he started recruiting his fishing buddies as OC and Dcs

**CardinalAndGold** · 04-21-2010, 10:35 PM

Wow those are some very interesting names, looking at where they are today.

Chizik wasn't nearly as bad as his assistants IMO.

Briles is gonna get it done at Baylor, he is getting some big time recruits.

Art Briles huh...interesting indeed.

**UNIGuy4Cy** · 04-21-2010, 10:55 PM

I wonder how long Harbaugh would have been here if he would have got the job?

**deadeyededric** · 04-21-2010, 10:57 PM

The kids down there love Briles. He will build Baylor into a winner. They have as good of facilities if not better than almost any team in the Big 12 except for the stadium.

Chizik had the best resume and was the best hire at that time. Now, you could say all of them would have been decent. I wouldn't trade CPR for any of them though. The reason being that I don't think he will bolt for a big time job if he is a huge success.

Good point, can Baylor win with attendance around 30k? Poor fan support ...And d-bag fans that post garbage on opposing team message boards

Yes, and they will. Patience. And I hate Baylor!

Agreed. If he had brought some good assistants, and auburn hadnt come calling, who knows, we might've been celebrating that Gene took us to a bowl in 09. Of course, that probably means he'd bolt somewhere else after that season.
