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.

Fostered a deteriorating culture in the locker room and lost big time commits to programs outside the state. Then the losses vs unranked teams hurt his backing as well.

Again, if you can't win at Texas. And 63% isn't doing that. Gonna have a tough time here.

I agree, the right coach at Texas wins .750 of their games over their career. If Sark doesn't do any better than Herman after 5 years, they will let him go too.

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.

He had top ten classes virtually every year. The Texas media hated him. Every coach has players that hate them. Hell Mullen had a ton and he was our best ever. His last team at Texas went 7-3. You don’t do that with a bad locker room.

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.

He won 63% of his games. At Texas. He absolute got fired for not winning enough. If you don't believe that, then we can stop arguing bc you're living in a dream world.

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.

You’re right. If you think a coach got fired for going 7-3 in a conference only schedule during COVID season we don’t need to continue the conversation. You know an exceptionally small amount about the University of Texas if you believe that.

UPig still having to scout Rogers just in case
2 weeks to hopefully put together a defensive plan good enough to slow them down
Mannnnnnnnn gonna be exciting. Most excited I've been about a game of ours since 2018
Yep....watched him miss 3-4 passes in warmups with no one covering the receivers. Some missed badly. I'm sorry. He can't pass. He'll throw some picks in this game and probably a pick six or two to boot.

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.
