Mack threatens Texas starters
Texas coach Mack Brown said Monday he told his players "all jobs are open" heading into the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl against Arizona State. "If kids didn't play with emotion, it's our job to get them out of there and get someone else in," Brown said. Brown said he was disappointed with his team's performance in a 38-30 loss at Texas A&M to end the regular season. He said his coaching staff is reviewing game films from the whole season to identify and eliminate the inconsistency that plagued the Longhorns (9-3), who struggled in all but three of their victories.

I think, and this is just my opinion and no offense to Longhorn Nation, but Mack Brown reminds me of Ron Zook.
Good recruiter, average game day coach.

It's about time Mack lit a fire up under their rear ends. As far as I'm concerned, Mack owes Vince because if it wasn't for him, there wouldn't have been an extension. Mack is known as a players' coach, but it seems at times these Longhorns expect to win off talent alone. And that type of thinking leads to upsets.

All that talent and can't beat A&M? Yeah, I would say they lacked something be it emotions, good coaching, schemes aren't up to par, or your starting QB had a sophomore slump which goes back to coaching.

That's right, Mack...blame it on the starters. Distract from disappointing seasons by bragging about a top three recruiting class every year. Keep stalling and eventually maybe you'll get another VY to save your sorry ###.
personally, as a Sooner I hope you stick around a long, long time:
Is it five of the last seven or six of the last eight? I can never remember...

Officer, Sooners defeated Texas 6 of the last 8 meetings. But who's counting...
I'm just being difficult.
I remember how frustrated a lot of Longhorn fans were with Mack before VY came along. Seems like be bought himself a contract extension through Vince's efforts, and I'm not sure he (Mack) is worth it.
ps. Often when you see guys playing without emotion it's an indication that they have lost faith in the coaching staff. The head coach yelling at them doesn't generally improve matters.
