have no idea.

[RaginScotsman]

That's a blow. Whitt was good.

[DocCajun]

Not good.

[CrazyCajun]

Both his previous schools were in Texas, is he from Texas? Hate to lose him but success does bring promotions.

What's that have to do with anything?

[CajunRed]

We say the Belt sucks, then when someone leaves for the Big-12 we question it?

I don't knowwe looked flabby this year. As a friend, with regular contact with the team, told several of us this past season, the whole program got soft this past year. Sometimes, change is good. We'll see, but I'd be more worried about a losing a good position coach. Whit was good, but I'd bet on Hud finding a good replacement.

[CrazyCajun]

Go find a good young strength coach that wants to move up to a bigger job, we can sell that now.

They pay more
