ARLINGTON – The good news for Brent Venables is that if his first head coaching gig doesn’t work out, he can always find work as a tour guide or the next...
Forget about when Texas and OU might hightail it for the SEC. Worry more about which coach will actually make it there?
Probably just as well, because he couldn’t answer the question everyone wanted to ask anyway, namely, when will Texas and OU hightail it for the SEC?Nothing against Venables or Steve Sarkisian, who has the benefit of a year’s head start, but we were wrong about the last Texas-OU pair. And, frankly, there was more buzz about Tom Herman and Lincoln Riley.
The new guys in Austin and Norman seemed so impressive, it conjured hopes of a matchup like Mack Brown and Bob Stoops, hired a year apart in another century. Mack got his head handed to him more often than not at the State Fair, but he got in his licks, too, not to mention Texas’ first national title since bell-bottoms.
Or as Sarkisian put it Thursday, “Without Nick Saban, I wouldn’t be sitting here today in front of y’all.”
