    I wanted him to turn it around but game #2 of the season shows that nothing was fixed. BYU's ran up the middle untouched into the secondary too many times. Poor tackling. Manny has to be done. I can't see how they are going to be competitive against any decent teams this year. They are too fundamentally flawed to compete at this level.

    Perhaps terminated tomorrow with Greg Robinson appointed interim DC?

    Judging by Mack's comments post game it appears he will be gone. That'd actually be refreshing - in-season change. Of course it's not the change we all want and need, which is Mack leaving yesterday. Frankly there is not one coach I'd want to retain after tonite. What the f**k was Major thinking forcing the issue running Ash? Major called a ******* terrible 2nd half and frankly game.

    I gave up my tix this year but had planned to drag my kids down from Dallas for 4 games with my dad. Texted him at half that I'm out on all games. Planned trip already for OU weekend. I'm out on this team until Mack is out.

    Didn't get to hear his comments, but I'd like to see immediate change on the defense. More of the same means this season is done.

    Season is done regardless. You can't lose to byu and expect to win 9 games. You can't lose to BYU in this fashion and expect to win 7 games. There is no defensive coach that can take this front 7 in mid September and expect much better results. The pansy play is ingrained in these guys. They are ruined. Schematically, yes, Matt Millen could have called a better game. It is laughable a fraud like Diaz has been able to last this long. It doesn't ******* matter. The front 7, our O line - we are ******* *******. We have a team filled with *******. But hey, we are fast.

    Until Mack leaves (and hopefully it is because he is fired) none of this will get appreciably better.

    Greg Robinson is already on staff. Heck, Bob Shipley might do a better job. Anyone would be better than Diaz. I don't think he has the players anymore.

    For a second I thought Akina was going to pull a Buddy Ryan and punch Diaz.

    It'd be interesting to find out what exactly went on.

    I'm OK with duane staying in some capacity. I'll take Robinson or Chizik as an interim at this point. It can't get any worse.

    don't get me wrong. I want Mack gone, but I can't see that happening midseason.

    I agree with y'all who suggest Greg Robinson as interim DC is a logical move. I think Manny's a nice/witty guy and all, but he must be shown the door pronto, and Texas will keep losing games that it can/should win until Mack pulls the trigger. It's clear as day to anyone who has at least one working eye.

    Every time I look at Diaz I can only think of Chris Kattan doing that Mongo skit on SNL.

    I'm not an Akina fan at all. My impression is that he's stuck around so long because he knows where his bread is buttered and fawns on Mack. He can jump up and down and scream a lot but I'm not sure how far that will carry us.

    Mack needs to be gone as well. His act is tired

    I didn't even finish watch all of the game and I still had to hose my tv off to get the stink off of it.
