Texas co-defensive coordinator Gene Chizik will be the next head football coach at Iowa State, according to Des Moines television station WOI.

Texas has lost quite a few coordinators in recent years with Robinson (Syracuse), Haywood (ND) and now Chizik to Iowa State. You've got to believe this will catch up with them sooner or later.

I thought that Brain Kelly to Iowa State was a done deal yesterday.

You could argue that it started to catch up this year.

If you were going to raid UT's staff this year, that was the guy to get.

Doesn't seem to catch Tressel or Carroll.

The best even reload their coaching staffs.

Very true, hopefully someday we can return to that.....remember back with Holtz when we lost guys like Barry Alverez and still reloaded and won. Good times.

They are definitely exceptions to the rule, though. Florida State, Miami, et al have all fallen by the wayside when losing top assistants. I will say that SC and OSU are lucky that they often have an abundance of talent to offset such losses, too.

He's the biggest name.

I think Tressel has lost about 8 or 9 guys since he got to tOSU. RB Tim Spencer is now with the Bears. He was the one that laid into Maurice Clarett on ESPN at Northwestern and made him cry.

Well, then he can't be a bad guy.
