So Chip Brown of the Dallas Morning News said on his radio show yesterday something to the effect of ‘John Mackovic’s best players would be Mack Brown’s best players.’

The world can be divided into two camps: Those who divide the world into two camps, and those who don’t. I’m in the latter group.
But that doesn’t mean I can’t make distinctions between those whom I’m not dividing into two camps. Take Longhorn Nation, for example. (WARNING: Gross over-generalizations ahead)
On one hand, you have a […]

Camp fever doesn’t just happen at camp.
It speaks to a broader mindset in recruiting philosophy. It speaks to your relative understanding of the negotiation process, leverage, your personal tolerance for chaos, and your comprehension of who holds the cards in an interaction.
