[QUOTE="Eight, post: 3191353, member: 73370"] one big key for me when we talk about a program hiring gary is that it isn't a matter of what he individually brings to the table, his knowledge of the game, ability to teach etc.... agree with bleednpurple in that at one time i did think gary AND his staff could potentially deliver a national title to a program. when the tcu program was really rolling at its peak they had a damn good coaching staff, but..... since sonny has taken over the tcu program there have been significantly changes in every aspect of the program and we have gotten to see just how far behind the tcu football program has fallen in multiple areas and the success on the field is as much a byproduct of those organizational and structural changes as coaching and scheme gary himself has admitted that when he got to texas he was introduced in ways to do things he had not considered. the gamble there for any program is in less than a season has gary absorbed enough from sark to evolve gary's thoughts on how to run a program in all aspects, deal with the media and fanbases, and not just coach one side of the ball. finally, if and when gary interviews for a hc position, at some point the issue of staff will come up, the question about who will call plays, heck oversee s&c, set up recruiting etc... how deep is the proverbial rolodex for gary, might be very wrong, but i don't see him putting a staff together without a few friendly faces so to speak. might be completely wrong on all of this, but the history for the most part is gary has hired who he knows and those hires are critical. much of venables defensive hires are the result of bad staff hires and we have seen the impact of making good hires. just seems to me at a p5 school the hc hire is so much more than one person doing one job [/QUOTE]
