Don't take our word for it

BOOM! is not only the greatest coach to ever yell excited explitives from the sideline, he also will tape his headset on his head to get through a game.

He's more than happy to tell you Will Muschamp stories. By the way, Chris Hatcher, once you catch him, is happy to tell stories about Muschamp, the new Texas defensive coordinator. There are a few. He once called Hatcher four hours after practice to rage about non-contact whistles costing his players sacks in practice. He also watched Muschamp coach a whole game wearing a makeshift turban made of athletic tape and a headset.

"Third game of our career. We're playing Southern Arkansas, and we just signed a deal with CSS TV. We're the first I-AA game they broadcast. I look down the sideline before the game, and a grad assistant is putting pre-wrap around Muschamp's head. His headset had been smashed to pieces on the plane ride, and he had to find a way to keep his headset on, so he had it taped to his head. He looked like The Red Badge of Courage."

Hatcher is laughing out loud as he says this, but wants me to make sure Muschamp gets the props, as well.

"Please include this in the article, though: He may the best football coach I've ever coached with. He has a knack for getting his kids to play so hard for him. The best, by far, at his job."
