Even if we were able to lure him away from SMU, it sounds like there would be a big risk for him to go back if Texas or A&M were to open up.
Being that his son Dwayne plays football for VT his insider info does seem legit!
There can only be one XFL champion ... ever
Damn. Autocorrect is a bitch.
Would love to replace ECU with Texas A&M....or anyone else for that matter
From a Scout.com article on Wednesday:
But I was able to confirm Strong explored bringing both Chad Morris and Tom Herman to Texas as offensive coordinator when Strong was first hired at UT in January of 2014.
Morris, now the head coach at SMU, had a $5 million buyout at Clemson for any job other than head coach, and Patterson said no way (even though Morris would have come - that's how much Morris wanted to get back to Texas and get in at the flagship).
To sum it up:
-Charlie Strong wanted Chad Morris or Tom Herman as his OC
-Gary Patterson was also interested in Morris
-Morris wanted to get back to Texas (which may suggest he doesn't want to leave)
Folks over at this other place seem to be dead set that it's Fuente...
He seems to have broken the Scoreboard upgrade back in 2013 as well. Interesting. Very interesting.

Edit: Broken may not be the best word. Whatevs. You get it.
There is this tweet from last year:
#TAMU and #VT in the #IndependenceBowl will be a good game between very similar schools that should be in the same conference. All time 2-2.— Bill Lawson (@Bill_Lawson_TX) December 3, 2014
Sumlin?
Lamer stadium?....never mind
If he had no qualms with naming the new coach then why does he not now? Either he's just blowing smoke or he's gloating in his insider knowledge. It's kind of like how I torture my kids with the fact that I know what they are going to get for Christmas each year.
I'm also a Steelers fan and chuckled when I first saw Tommy's name.

# | Techonomics: How Frank Beamer's Football Program Fuels Southwestern Virginia haha, sure dude.
My statement and this entire article, and the money all tell same story Beamer's success impacted every facet of the university and community. I didn't isolate the Arch program, you did. Not sure why you are obstinate to opposing views supported by facts, but fine. whatever. you only want to believe your opinion. go for it.
I was under the impression that both Strong and Patterson are defensive-minded coaches. I've really been leaning toward Richt lately, but the spread description doesn't really fit with him. Chad Morris would definitely fit the bill.
And you know, he doesn't specifically say HC....so it could be Bud getting his wish.

# | Techonomics: How Frank Beamer's Football Program Fuels Southwestern Virginia I'm just replying because I've never been involved in one of these discussions that keeps getting really skinny
For what it's worth I believe he married a hokie. Although this could be untrue!
It is overseeded with ryegrass every September to maintain the look without disrupting the durability.
It's right outside Dallas, so I'm assuming he has some sort of connection to SMU/ Chad Morris if the tweet is indeed true.
As a Steelers fan, I remember that magical season with Tommy Maddox. I never thought I would hear his name again, but #TommyMaddox4HC
Okay, this tweet was posted almost an hour after Bruce Feldman broke the story and we reported it here.
Va. Tech has hired former Auburn asst. Scot Loeffler as Hokies new OC, a source just told CBS.— Bruce Feldman (@BruceFeldmanCFB) January 14, 2013
I am looking through his history to see if he implied Loeffler prior to the Feldman story.
There's also these tweets in his recent past.
Coach Beamer, Please, for the good of the University, retire! #FrankRetire #FreeTheHokies— Bill Lawson (@Bill_Lawson_TX) October 3, 2015
#FrankBeamer it's time! #FreeTheHokies— Bill Lawson (@Bill_Lawson_TX) October 17, 2015
Those two, to set up the context for this:
Good news for #HokieNation coming soon!— Bill Lawson (@Bill_Lawson_TX) October 28, 2015
From what I'm reading, seems like Tom Herman may in fact be our next coach #sauces
