Tennessee is paying really well again.

Mack Brown is an awesome recruiter, but a very average coach. I hate what he did to Texas and then pretended as if it wasn't his fault. Without his temper tantrum at a restaurant with a billionaire booster, then Texas would be near the top of the college game right now. Mack is a sociopath with no real feelings. Yep, he's a good ole boy and can talk a good game, but he's rather fraudulent.
I'm friends with several dads of ex Texas players that had him in their houses and he is really good at that.

But, Texas lost to Alabama in the championship game and Mack pouted for the rest of his time in Austin. He sat in his office while Major Applewhite did all the work.
Mack's plan had been to win another championship and ride off into the sunset, but when that didn't happen, he soiled his britches like a 2 year old. He collected 5 mil a year for sitting in his office and Major would come by occasionally and tell him what was up.

Mack started reading recruiting sites instead of scouting the players himself and Texas missed badly on quite a few. How the hell did he miss out on so many talented QBs I will never know while he took several bums and never made a move to fix it.

Any UNC guys that do not believe what I am saying can shove it. I was there, I saw it with my own eyes and then I know other people involved. Mack quit and collected a huge paycheck and good luck to him at UNC. I hope he does better there and leaves you in better shape.

Oh, watch out if you play an intimidating coach on the other side. Mack was so afraid of Bob Stoops that he would almost #### his pants. Check out the Texas vs Oklahoma scores while Mack was there. OU never beat Texas like a rented mule until Mack.
Yep, he did pretty well against most other coaches, but he was frightened of Stoops.

All that to say, I hope this recruit comes to Clemson. Tennessee is a nice place, but they will never do anything. They lost to Georgia State last year. Let that sink in a minute. That's like Clemson losing to Wofford.

You’re describing Mack circa 2012 not 2020. I don’t dispute your facts but perhaps your tone. Most of what you’ve stated was echoed by many UNC faithfull when Mack was hired. It was feared he was taking the job for the title and paycheck.

Those fears have proven to be unfounded. From day one Mack has demonstrated incredible energy. He’s visited all of the NC HS coaches and won them over. He’s hired a first rate staff to recruit and coach. The results, to date, speak fo themselves. Mack has owned up to his shortcomings his last few years at Texas. Burnout played a big part. He also admits to getting lazy in recruiting and delegating too much to his coaches. How many coaches today have that kind of honesty?

He says he’s refreshed and learned from his mistakes. All of his UNC critics happily admit they were wrong.

As far as qb evaluation, he flipped Sam Howell (future Heisman candidate) from FSU a couple of weeks on the job. This year he’s flipped Drake Maye from Alabama. UNC is set at qb for the next 5 years.

As far as your allegation that he coaches scared. Look no further than the decision to go for two against Clemson (correct decision but poor play call and execution) last season. That’s not playing not to lose.

Finally, Paige will Probably sign with Tenn. UNC backed off of him and I suspect Clemson has as well for all the reasons that are well known. If Clemson really wanted him, no way Tenn beats out the Tigers.
