    Wonder if he regrets leaving MSU for Texas? I know he had family reasons but if he wants to coach a lot longer, idk if that was the best place for him to go. Like Mullen the table was set at MSU.

    I don't wish Vic bad though, what would be the point? He gave a lot to MSU, didn't like the way it ended but coaching changes are never pleasant.

    Facts. Believe he has two top 20 players signed.

    He may personally regret it but strictly by facilities and resources he has everything he needs at Texas to be very successful and have a long career there. I?d be shocked if he didn?t succeed at a very level.

    Nobody thinks that will happen. Coaches learn along the way. Vic apparently did.

    Yep, in his only HC job before MSU he went 80-110. No way at Texas does anyone think anything like that would happen but it will be interesting to see if he can get Texas to the level he got State. He was given tremendous support by the fanbase at State and had a very rare chemistry here that is not always easy to recreate. I'm not really sure how many people at Texas really even give a crap about their WBB program. Texas can't even get their football program rolling where the entire fanbase cares and they have the largest athletic budget in the country.

    Texas boosters will provide him all the money he needs to buy players like he did at State. His recruiting class at Texas is already showing they are. He will be fine.

    And before anybody gets on here and raises hell about my post- every recruit in the country for the sports of football and basketball gets paid. Baseball recruits also get money in the form of random scholarship money or payments as well. Top recruits dont go anywhere these days without payment. They know their worth

    And, this formula is working out so well for the Texas football team!

    Boosters actually buy players in WBK. What's a top 20 player cost?

    Don't bring facts into this; folks opinions can't handle facts. Reality is it ain't all about money and top 20 recruits like so many think. Is it a factor, sure but that ain't it. Our best football teams were not highly ranked or bought off. Take our mens bball team this year. Everyone said we would suck, well best team in a while.

    Texas may get back in football but they look like Tenn or Nebraska right now. Vic will win, now how big is yet to be seen.

    Sort of enjoy watching him go thru the trials of a rebuild, but agree that he will eventually get it done. Doubt he has many regrets about leaving. He can now transfer to A&M when Blair retires which he couldn?t do at MSU due to contract restrictions. Hail State & good luck 2 Nikki & the Lady Dogs.
