This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Kelly 3.0: The model the Austin media thinks UT's Herman by knutesteen

should follow. It's amazing how those who don't pay close attention to our program think Kelly did something amazing when he self-evaluated, met with all of the players and hired new coordinators, emerging a new man and coach-allegedly. I did learn that Austin's former Army Colonel Craig Flowers and Aptus Assessments/Aptus Sports LLC played a role in Kelly 3.0, as detailed in the linked 2015 promotional article. Locally here, they really think Kelly and our current program state are imitation-worthy. Evidently, everything is relative.
