suit. I can see why people think we are a typical SEC cheater school. Just look at our hires lately. They just keep perpetuating cheater tag for us. In hindsight it is obvious Tyndall should never have been hired.

Bruce was here 6 years and fired for cheating and lying about it.
Martin was here 3 years and left because AD wanted to reduce the buy-out and he knew he would get fired after his recruits failed.
Tyndall was here 1 year and fired for cheating and lying about it.
Need new coach. That is 3 coaches in 5 years, two of which got fired for NCAA violations.

I see no instability here; only failure to hire coaches that will not cheat. The firings were because they cheated; not because they could not coach.
The coach that left on his own saw the handwriting on the wall that he did not recruit enough good players to compete in SEC. He also proved that even with incoming talent at Cal, he could fail in PAC-12.

The only people claiming instability are those that have not investigated the facts of the coaches leaving. For the Talking Heads and people that always want to blast UT, it is easy to spin this as instability. But it is real simple. Do not cheat and get in trouble with NCAA and actually coach the players to get better (Pearl and Tyndall) and you do NOT get fired. Be a mediocre coach and run the first chance you get when you have to prove you can coach up your players, you get Coach Martin.
