Former Texas HC, now assaulter, fired

[surly]

UT has a right to fire but it has to be a valid reason, or they are in breach of contract. Minton is setting it up that they had no valid reason to can him.

If Chris Del Conte is fired does Texas go after Jamie Pollard or Gene Taylor so they can bring their football and basketball coaches along to Austin? Which has the better resume'?

I dont know anything about your AD, but Pollard at Texas is like oil and water. It wouldn't work.

Gary Barta would be a natural fit at UT.

Unfortunately, there's a precedent for Texas taking a winner from K-State into their A.D. job, DeLoss Dodds.

When there are photographs of bruises and bite marks I'd have a hard time writing this line (from Milton)
" I am concerned that the University of Texas has made a terrible decision against the interest of the of the University, based on Twitter feeds and editorials –and not the facts concerning a truly innocent man. "

Even if there was a bit of self defense it sounds bad to me.

He's a defense lawyer. Change the subject to anything positive, ignore or confuse anything negative.

Arkansas's Musselman would fit well in the Texas culture, arrogant.

I think Prohm would be perfect for Texas right now.

UT chat rooms keep saying that they paid Tech 4 million for the buyout. He won 29 games there as Head coach, (that's $137,931.03 per win)

I know Austin real estate has become expensive in the last few years, but for 5 million I would have thought you would get something more lavish.

Austin has completely blown up the last few years and has been appreciating at a significant rate for quite a while. Many housing economists and real estate/mortgage people have had concerns about it being overheated for a while now. Depending which home price index you like to follow, some list it as among those markets with biggest decline in 2022 and some experts predict it will be among those markets that decline most in 2023.

$5 million in Austin, but probably around $600k in Iowa?

Yeah when my West Des Moines friends complain about property prices...

On the flip side, no state income tax in Texas, so you'd have that going for you...

Except that they raise the taxes on everything else down here to make up for it.

Agreed, money has to come from somewhere. Also, Texas has one of the highest property tax rates in the country.
