Nothing like a fired dude at a top 5 job that won 63% of his games.
For comparison, les miles DA won 77% of his games at lsu. Both top jobs. One won 77% and was a moron. The other won 63% and got fired after 4 unacceptable seasons. Yeah. Sign me up for that.
Nah. This state team will find a way to 17 it up probably. Lol
I'm not trolling at all. I'm extremely excited about Saturday. We may not win because UPig is pretty good on D, we are on the road, and our D is awful. But I expect us to play a solid game that wont be decided until the 4th Q. We should have a chance to win the game and the offense should show some good things
He didn’t get fired for not winning enough. He went 7-3 in the Covid year and got fired. That’s a 9-10 win season in a normal year. If we can hire Tom Herman we should, if we continue to suck this year. He is a monster recruiter and has an elite offense everywhere he goes. He pissed off the boosters by being Lane Kiffinish at Texas. Basically told them all to **** off. That’s exactly what we need.
Dude, he took over a train wreck from Charlie strong and had a bad first year that skews numbers. After that he won 10 games, 8 games, and then went 7-3 which would normally be a 9-10 win year. That’s not bad at all. There was an issue with the boosters and him there and it wasn’t about wins/losses.
Man I'm not going to get into a back and forth. He had a culture that was deteriorating rapidly and it has been documented. He had 5 star OL and Ewers both committed and they dropped him to go out of state. He had players on his team negatively recruiting HS players to not come to Texas because of him. Players on the team informed the AD they were leaving or going to leave the program because of him and the culture he allowed. This has been known for a while now.
ETA. Let him mature and rehab 3-4 years at FAU to see if he gets it together.
I would have top 10 classes at texas.
Herman is meh. Solid. Nothing special. Texas record:
6-6
9-3
7-5
9-3 (7-3 but would be 9-3 if he won his other two noncon games that were cancelled).
Texas and OK are the only two top 30 recruiters in the Big 12 per college football matrix. Two! That's it! Two! All 7 sec west teams are top 30 recruiters. Averaging 8-4 at texas isn't hard.
Mack brown won 77% of his games a Texas. Last 4 years he won 59(Herman like) got fired like Herman did. Less than 75% qt Texas is quite frankly failure.
He won 10 games his second year. He’s a good coach. What if OM didn’t hire Kiffin because of his usc time? He was the hottest coach on the planet 5 years ago and he stepped into a program where boosters are absolutely atrocious. Everyone sucks there. It’s not a Herman problem.
That’s better than the end of the Mack Brown Era post championship, the Charlie Strong Era, and better than Sark.
Maybe, just maybe, it’s a Texas issue not a Herman issue. His last year, Covid, he went 7-3 in an all Big 12 schedule. Didn’t get to play Kansas who was bad and blew out Colorado in the bowl game. There isn’t a single person we could hire this off-season with a better resume.
