Arizona State assistant coach Larry Porter will be named the Longhorns’ new running backs coach, perhaps as early as Wednesday, a source close to the Texas program said Tuesday night.

So is this a demotion or a lateral move ?????

Good for him. I'm sure it is more lucrative.

Oceana Tiger · 01-02-2013 08:54 AM

Lol. I just cant believe we hired a career long running backs coach.

Dmalice · 01-02-2013 09:00 AM

Hes the only one that wanted the job.

why? we hired a career long recruiter.

Must be nice getting paid from multiple employers at the same time.

Good for LP. I wish him success, and hopefully he can move up to head coach (somewhere else) someday.

fsquid · 01-02-2013 09:36 AM

This is good for us as I'm sure it reduces how much we have to pay for him next year.

CubsTigersGrizz · 01-02-2013 09:38 AM

I'm honestly surprised he wasn't given the title recruiting coordinator, at least not officially. In a large staff like LSU and Texas, he can serve a very valuable role.

Original Sabretooth · 01-02-2013 09:55 AM

Seems like a risky move for Porter. If Brown doesn't fare a little better in '13, he could end up on his ear in Austin.

~~Brother Bluto~~ · 01-02-2013 10:02 AM

Will he be allowed in the coaching meetings this time? Or be asked to "step out" like before?

Depsite his lack of success as a HC I think he'll always be in demand as a good recruiter.

No, he wasn't.

Good luck, Larry! I know it didn't work out here, but I have nothing but the best wishes for you in your future endeavors!

Mack Brown shoulda consulted Jeff Bower, Neil Callaway and Ellis Johnson about what happens when you hire a former Tiger head coach.
