[QUOTE="xWVU2010x, post: 129437809, member: 1467482"] People are going to be angry regardless, you cant give in to the overly emotional fans. If Rich wants it, the admin wants it, and the donors want it then we do it. Joe fan does not get a voice, and by all reports the high level donors want it. As for Texas, okay they've been down, is that somehow going to continue? It is just a matter of time before the window closes on TCU and/or Baylor (personally I think it just happened this year) and Texas takes their place among the Big XII elite, we cant sit and say "look at Texas they suck and some how were supposed to demand better?" because Texas is not going to suck very long and their fanbase will demand better and they will get better. What our mentality as a fanbase should be "look at Baylor, they were Rutgers-south and now they have been relevant for about 5 years now, why cant that be us atleast once every 4 years?" Rich has gotten us to that level, I dont know why we would want a "new" direction given how unlikely it is we strike gold on a hire that would have a coordinator or MAC-level type of resume.
