    Yeah, I agree w nasty. Herman is a hot commodity and looks promising, but nothing is a sure thing. And that UT job has a tendency to eat its young. A lot more that just football involved in that job.

    Herman would be a great hire, no doubt... if they could land him

    Are we supposed to believe this? Do they know how you act here online?

    bigcountry has earned his right to gloat.

    Go Sinton Pirates and Lady Pirates! I also like old movies like "Dawn at Socorro." I also like the Tour de France. I like the Pelican West Band located at South Padre Island, Texas. Phil is PhiI is Bill is the compassion police. He is also the Sinton Matador. Some call him the Sinton Prophet. {Also Captain Obvious. } BEWARE OF THE HOWLING BEAR! He's going for the Corner - he's got it! Roy Orbison rules.

I would love to have a civil discussion with you about Herman or any other coaches, like I have had with Aggies high on him, as well as Horn friends and relatives. You and I both know there is no guarantee that Herman will pan out. I can spin a narrative. I have Aggie buddies that were high on him also but I posed to them as I to you. This is the guy that lost to Navy, was pounded by SMU, needed some magic to beat Tulsa and C. Florida. I'll give credit where it's due he pulled out two wins to prevent going 0-4 in October. Herman has done a great job with U of H but how many times have we heard the spin he's winning with someone else talent, could this be said here also?

    Spinning another narrative Strong was just as instrumental with a NC also and you know what Florida just like Herman's tOSU was just fine after he left.

    I also believe if Strong is gone as early rumors circulate, I can bet you he is leaving talent in place for the next guy. I think Strong is a good football coach and was onto something with the talent and the new OC he hired. I really think he was going to have the breakout season you all have been looking for.


    I am pretty sure if the media was claiming Texas was in talks with PJ Fleck you would be telling almost all the same stuff, minus the NC talk.


    Your points presented are the same as what others have given to me, I know this with coaching hires today there are no homerun hires anymore.

    I have no idea what the Aggies will do with Sumlin but I assure you I am not nervous on losing out on Herman should things go your way. Like I said there are no homerun hires in college football (fan's are to impatient and want instant results) there are only flavor of the week hires every year. That's what you all got with Strong and the Aggies got with Sumlin. I can remember Aggies making a push for Strong instead of Sumlin.


    Houston isn't as little as program as you think it is when compared to their conference foes, they have quite a bid of history, money, resources and talent to pull from. We are talking about the same program that really shook up the SWC within years of joining.
    You could say this about any coach you hire, nothing is a sure deal these days. Just ask old hag Hillary Clinton, LMAO.
