[QUOTE="Eight, post: 2780861, member: 73370"] not trying to be funny, but the closest thing i can think of is sonny's dad spike who was at tech 13-14 years. i think sonny has been around the college game a very long time with his dad's time at tech and his time as well, he will turn 50 in november, and the question becomes what do you want to accomplish in what is the back part of your career? let's say smu runs the table and ends the season undefeated. what truly elite job is going to open up? usc? maybe, but sonny wasn't comfortable in no cal and while so cal is different it isn't texas for sonny. michigan? seriously, what truly great job will come open and do you want to leave a school that is willing to give you what you need to be competitive and pay you well with very little pressure for say mississippi state? sonny saw up close the job his dad had in lubbock and gary has in ft worth where they were basically insulated from the pressures of p5 jobs. steele raised the question and in part i am not sure i disagree that some of the advantages tcu had tin the mwc are gone and aren't coming back. smu is in a great recruiting area, will never get the primary media focus which isn't a bad thing, appears willing to fund the program, and in the aac isn't having to fight schools with bottomless pockets.
