Everything is bigger in Texas, even the controversy.
As a result of the blowout delivered at the hands of TCU, 50-7, things aren't going so well for the Longhorns. Freshman corner Kris Boyd was discovered to have retweeted a tweet about transferring to Texas A&M. He would later apologize but like everything on the internet, it was here to stay.

People on the social media network then began calling for Charlie Strong's job. To make matters worse, the Texas Rangers even got in on the act. The tweeting didn't stop there as the team is 1-4 with a matchup with Oklahoma on the horizon. It's safe to say the Longhorns may be a little on edge.
They reached out to Lil' B The Based God to lift a curse if he has one on the team. He's been known to curse Kevin Durant and James Harden, and it's important to note that neither have won a championship.

Even the upperclassmen seemed fed up with some of the situations surrounding the team.
Dylan Haines - "Some of the freshmen guys just want to go out there and just play. This is not HS where you don't watch film and still win."

Hassan Ridgeway - "To me if you have a problem you should go talk to your teammate and not air it out in public." #HookEm #Texas

With all that's going on in Texas, are Strong's days numbered? However many days he has left, he should spend them talking to players about their on and off the field game plan.
