Tilman is acting like a reality star now and not the head of a billion dollar company and the chair of the Board of Regents. Comments from last night:
"Lane Kiffin did not show me anything that Major Applewhite did not show me," Fertitta said. "Sure, he's been a head coach and he's been an OK head coach. But I can tell you this: [Kiffin] was not a safe hire."
"Lane Kiffin looked me in the eye and he knew when he sat down at that table that he was going to go with the contract that I put in front of him with the buyout that I wanted in front of him. And we never even got there."
"[Major's] a guy that's been on the big stage, he was the quarterback at the University of Texas, he has a great relationship with the coaches and high school football in Texas. Lane does not. That was an 'X' against Lane compared to Major."
Never seen a regent or AD talk about a candidate that didn't get the job. Nor so willingly insert himself into a situation or remind everyone, either. It's not a good look.
