    @RaceBannon Texas fans have mixed reviews on Ash. On one hand, he is a fairly solid fundamental coach. Tackling improved substantially and the guys didn't seem too out of position most of the time. He's a big advocate/teacher of rugby style tackling. Ash was also not given spring football during covid so they had to learn a new system unconventionally. And to his credit, they got better as the season wore on. His general philosophy is to keep things simple and let you out-athlete the other team and put your best players in a position to succeed. All of which actually is a pretty good strategy for Texas because they are going to outrecruit 90% of the teams on their schedule. It's also in stark contrast to that moron Todd Orlando who ended up at USC. He was a disaster, blitzing from 20 yards away, dropping our best edge rusher into coverage, horrible tackling with guys constantly out of position. On the downside, Ash is viewed as a giant meathead. He insisted on (or at the very least, was granted) the hiring of Chris Valai as DB coach, despite his being very, very green and frankly unqualified. Ash also put together one of the worst staffs ever when he was HC at Rutgers. Urban Meyer loves the guy, or at least publicly praises him whenever he gets the chance. I wouldn't have been too upset with keeping Ash, but from Kwat seems to be a big upgrade.

    You guys play anyone that is willing to run the ball and grind out 100 yard drives and give you about 5 possessions in a game?

    They’re in the big 12, so no. It will take the conference a while to adapt.

    Some Texas fans actually want Nansen. I'd be surprised if the Texas AD is dumb enough to let that guy around Sark again.

    Lol ....I watched those bitches Sark and Nansen get completely drunk-ass wasted on team charter flight back from a husky Bowel game.
    Johnny goodtimez Nansen for a reason
