The University of Texas: Sucking since 2005

[Legit Elite]

The more I watch Texas, the more convinced I am that Mack is just a slightly better Gene Chizik, and that's only because it's easier to recruit elite players to Texas than Auburn.  They both only have titles because of inhuman QBs and they both have shitty teams when they don't have elite QB talent.

I thought about this today and I wonder maybe it isn't as east to recruit to UT as some people think.  I mean don't get me wrong they have elite facilties and that cute national title in 2005, but DFW is closer to Norman than Austin and A&M is closer to Houston.  Location for kids does matter and if A&M has had better talent then their coaching has been even more atrocious than we thought.  I think you hear more about players from Houston and DFW than Austin and San Antonio.   

four people called this dumb in 10 minutes 

Feelings not hurt.  By the way UT has had 21 four+ loss seasons in the modern era fyi

I would say that UT has done a fantastic job of marketing itself with being synonymous with the Texas, State of identity

I've always wondered why is it so hard to recruit to Hawaii? I mean granted crap conference, no real football tradition, family probably couldn't see many home games, etc.. but its rough ridin' hawaii

Spend your entire playing career on very long airplane rides.
