Flight scheduled from GSP to Norman today
Dec 5, 2021, 2:36 PM
|

Lands at 3:48 central time. Probably means the reports are true. Thank you Brent for all you have done for Clemson and best of luck with the Sooners. He stayed longer than anyone else would have in his position, and it’s no doubt a huge loss for our program. That being said, I am excited to watch our team overcome new challenges and win more championships. Go Tigers!

It is - it’s their gulf stream jet

And I seriously doubt they would be flying it to and from GSP today if it’s not to bring Vensbles back to Norman.
Personally I think he’s making a huge mistake - not got leaving for a head coaching job but for leaving for that job. He’s inheriting a decimated team about to join the SEC with high expectations. I wish him the best but will be surprised if he’s still there in 4 years.

just an indicator they are talking. I’ve said from the jump BV is their man while others said otherwise. I’m simply saying until BV announces or someone confirms that has any credibility on the matter, it’s not a smoking gun.

I wish I could agree but those jets are incredibly expensive to fly. I just can’t see doing that for just a conversation. I hope I’m wrong.

Um, actually they are more fuel efficient than

most other private jet manufacturers.
The A/C itself is expensive, yes. So are Tesla’s because of their technology.

You can't fault him. Its never a bad decision to take a job offering life changing money. Even if he's not not coaching in a few years he will be getting millions from OU. There's not a person on this board who would reject that.

LOL. He is already a multi million dollar coordinator. One of the highest paid ones. That's life changing money right there.

Were talking 80 plus million dollar deal which is a lot more than the 2.5 million he makes now. Let's not kid ourselves Everyone would take this deal.

Well, let's see... 1. Dabo wouldn't take that deal. 2. Saban wouldn't take that deal. 3. Ryan Day wouldn't take that deal. 4. Urban Meyer wouldn't take that deal.
Everyone? You sure you don't want to modify your statement?
In any case, OU won't be winning a Natty anytime soon...

I think it is the right move.
And if he fails and wants to be a DC again, I don’t think he will have any problem whatsoever. Even if his Sooners are allowing 50pts a game in the mouth breather conference.

Whether he does well or not it’s going to be great experience & great retirement & legacy money for his family.
He can always find a great DC job!

It was bound to happen sooner or later. Brent has been ready for a head position for a while. We are lucky he stayed this long. He deserves it, but it is not the coaching change I hoped would happen. I just hope Dabo does not go for a former player again....we'll see won't we. Brent's job is a coveted job and they don't have to settle for just anyone. They can get just about who they want. Let's hope it is not Muschump....gag.

What was wrong with the Anderson Airport? Too small?

I’m not saying taking A head coaching job is a bad idea
Dec 5, 2021, 3:30 PM
|

But I thank THAT job is. He could get the $ and a job where he’d be more likely to succeed. If they cut him in a few years he can go back to DC but if he really wants to be a HC long term it’s not a good move IMO to go there.
