MODERATORS
Another concern is that fans/boosters clamor for the HC change the minute things start to go sideways and there seems to be a capable replacement already on the staff.
Sticking with Texas as an example: Gary Patterson seemed to be a good analyst for us and I'm glad he got a soft-landing into retirement, but whenever things went sideways, the mob wanted Patterson to take the reins. It can be a huge, dumb distraction.
Not to hijack the thread, but in the right situation, I think Gary might have one more G5 rebuild in him. I'd love to see what he could do with a UNT or Tulsa (or moving next door to his buddy Jerry Kill by taking on the UTEP challenge) if he's got the itch. I don't know if his style translates well to the modern P5 portal and NIL world, but coaching up unheralded 2- and 3-stars until they're ready to blow up in their junior and senior years can still work at that level, and you shouldn't get TOO much poaching before they produce.
