Early in the season, Brown had some impactful moments with the offensive staff. As Texas looked to gain a rhythm in the red area, I was made aware that Brown put his fingerprints on a few areas of the Texas offense earlier in the season. This was a good hire from Sarkisian, a former head coach who had a clear strength in the running game.

Texas benefitted this season as a result of Neal Brown.

I've been a Neal Brown fan for a while. He's been at the forefront of what I've called the hybrid spread culture in football, where you can run a modern, wide-open offense with heavy personnel.

Damn.  If he was a big help in the running game I would have hated to see it if he weren’t around 😳

All i care about is ALL of our secondary coaches sticking for year two of continuity because that’ll help with how incompetent they looked at times this year. 

Akina is not sticking around for another year

I'm not sure he was as much of benefit as you're claiming here Jeff, but I do wish him all the best at UNT, big shoes to fill, that is for sure. 

People tend to look at records, then draw their conclusions.  If you win, you are a good coach.  If you lose, you are a poor coach.  In the old days......ie, before UIL (and ignoring bagmen issues) this was probably a reasonable assumption.  

Sadly, today it isn't as much about coaching as it player purchases.  I am an idealistic old man.  It is hard to rationalize why a kid would go to SMU when they could go to Texas, or Stanford, or Michigan, etc.  

I rather image that there are folks in West Virgina regretting their decision.
