Tom Herman out at Texas

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

I guess Urban finally said yes.

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

Holy shit, it's Sark!

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

Rumors are Sark. I'm glad. Make Saban gamble on an other assistant, maybe one day he'll miss lol.

Billy Napier in shambles

[parabrave]

Well Hopefully they get the Tuscalossa Sark and not the LA Sark. But being in Austin HMMMMM/

[msstate7]

Weird timing.

[KOdawg1]

Sark would've been a good hire for us last year. Hope we don't regret going another direction.

Well...he would probably be heading to Texas still and we would be looking for a new coach so...

[KOdawg1]

What evidence is there of that? Take away his year at Alabama this year and replace it with a year as a HC for us this year. How many games would he have won? I doubt Texas would've hired him one year in. Remember, his big year at Alabama wouldn't have happened.

[Irondawg]

Wow I know he was on the hot seat but went 7-3 and all his losses were by one score so it wasn’t like they were a disaster. They were really bad on defense but I still think Herman might be a pretty good coach.

And how much better can you expect Sark to be?

On the one hand it's only this year that Sarks OC resume has gotten him into consideration at Texas, so if he was at state that wouldn't have happened. On the other hand, had he gone say, 7-3 at State I think that would have raised more eyebrows than this year at Bama did and yeah Texas would probably still go for him

Question is, was 7-3 ever really in the cards? JoMo left a looooot of culture issues any coach would have to fix, though a Shrader led running attack would have done better for us this year

I like Sark, but I don't see how this is an upgrade. Herman was 32-18 in 4 seasons, 4 bowl wins. Texas has to quit believing that it's 1975 and they dominate the SWC. They keep firing guys after 3-4 seasons and they will never get better.

[msstate7]

Glad this move was made after Sawyer signed. Sark's offense is probably more appealing to Sawyer than herman's

Dominating and averaging 8-4 at UT is two vastly different scenarios. Granted they should stick with a coach longer than 3-4 years, but 8 wins/yr, at Texas, is pretty pathetic.

[Santiago]

I honestly think Kiffin is a better fit at UT than Sark. They are more like TSUN, and get off on all that attitude.

[maroonmania]

Sark the candidate over Napier. Bert will not be a happy camper.

[BeardoMSU]

Did Sark turn them down?

What? If he turns them down, who then?

David Pollack is sayin' that... FWIW....

And not that it matters, but Sark recently signed a yuge, new contract at Bammer...

As a recovering alcoholic, he may not want the pressure of a HC job at a big time program

The Venables route.

If you like the culture where you're at and get fulfillment out of what you're doing, why leave and take the pressure of an HC job?

And not only that, but Herman just took Texas to a 7-3 record, a blowout bowl game, and will finish in the Top 20 in the year of Covid. If I'm Sark and I'm trying to revive my career after what he went through, why in the hell would I want THAT kind of pressure on me. No way in hell.

MULLENNNNN to Texas. Heck Fla fans are not going to tolerate another 8-4 season

Come on mane...
10-3
11-2
8-4, but...
they beat Georgia, and took Bama to the end. The bowl was without 4 revivers (2 1st rounders). The lsu loss was the only one that unacceptable.

He?s always going to have at least that one though.

Then he won't last. I still think he's young enough to make the jump from really good to elite, but he has to cut out the WTF loss(es), and he needs to find a way to go from top 10 in recruiting to top 5. That won't be easy.

You are assuming Florida is rational - they aren’t. Sharkfricker had two SEC East titles In 2 seasons and they were ready to fire him.

That's true.

[RougeDawg]

Let us not cast stones in a glass house talking about Florida or Texas fans. We had people bitching after controlling the game and winning against a ranked team 2 days ago. With an offense that is not suited for sleet conditions. Many here were ready to can leach midway through the season, and now people are saying Texas should give a coach more than 3-4 years?

No wonder big pharma has so much wealth and control.

Texas just announced Sark as their new HC....

Wonder if Ohio State ponied up some cheese to make this happen before national championship?

Thats good for teams like us and OM. Not for Fla.

[Saltydog]

Yeah but if Texas wants him that won't matter and what he's currently making at Trailer Trash U will pale in comparison......

[msstate7]

Didn't they extend him preseason? He's got at least 2 more years there imo unless we goes like 6-6, and that's highly, highly unlikely
