Tom Herman

[DMAC]

Other sites hinting that Strong stays. Nothing definitive but it's sure moving that direction. Losses to both KU and TCU would obviously alter that course.

Losses to both or either?

If Charlie gets beat by Kansas he should be fired immediately.

Talked to my connected friend this evening. I now wish I had not. Didn't care for what he had to say.

He tells me there is a new hot name among the BMDs involved in a search for Charlie's replacement. That name is Les Miles. I almost threw the phone. I actually got mad at him. He's like whoooa there, I'm just relaying what I'm hearing.

Thats right, Les Miles is in the mix. All no-offense, riverboat gambler, can't develop a QB Les Miles.

Good news is . . . Hermann is still the top choice. That has not changed. Another name I heard mentioned, but not prominently, was Harsin.

FYI

Ugh...

Les Miles is an older, more experienced version of CFS. No, thanks.

Harsin intrigues me.... not sure why?  Maybe I liked the one year I saw of his offense; maybe I like his former boss who lives in Washington....

It might be more productive to pick this topic up next year at this time.... if we are 5-4 again.  We can also pick up the debate as to whether or not we are moving in the right direction.

What's interesting is that bar seems to keep moving for Strong. Most people thought he would be safe at 8-4...then it went down to 7-5 (which is still possible)...and now folks are saying he'll still be around at 6-6. I don't get it.

I've been saying for several weeks that he was back barring a losing record.

Nightmare.

Hate to say it but I actually kinda like the UH uniforms tonight.

Is tonight Tom Herman's informal audition for the Texas job?

Someone who can win more than 50% of the games. There are several out there.

UH looking good now. 17 to 0.

 

[UT1983]

Ok. If Texas was playing Louisville tonite......are the Longhorns up 17 - 0?

 

[North Texas Golfer]

UH looking good now. 17 to 0.

Damn it, there should be no question what Texas should do.

 

[Mitch Lovell]

If Herman were to end up here wouldn't be too difficult to convince Marvin to commit with how ed Oliver looks

 

[UT1983]

Did I say 17 - 0? Meant 31 - 0.

Herman's team making Louisville look pedestrian.

If Jackson blows the Heisman and Foreman has two monster games and wins it, it's gets really interesting at Texas. If somehow Foreman ends up with the Heisman, ain't no way in Hell that Charlie gets let go.

 

[RickyFlair]

Maybe I've been a little short sighted (that's not directed at Coach Strong) in my analysis of Tom Herman.

Per Chip Brown:

"Was told by a source I trust that school president Greg Fenves "is reluctant - perhaps even unwilling" to consider Tom Herman as a candidate for the Texas Longhorns coaching job if Charlie Strong was to be replaced at season's end."
