  1. We'll try whatever we can, but my guess is both sides know Urban could get pretty much whatever he wants, provided it's possible. I mean, it can't hurt unless we're stupid and overplay our hand, but Urban isn't exactly Charlie or Tom. He knows this game and knows his position in it. We have to try, but he has basically all the cards.
  2. In fairness, I think we've all been having our dis beliefs lately.
  3. Now that is how I want to spend my escapism time. Looks so fun.
  4. "Sorry, son, daddy can't play right now. You see, I have to go draw cartoon dicks to cheer up some very sad people on the internet."
  5. Does@THUJONE still participate here at all? I know the man retired, but certain events call for a reunion tour, and if this isn't one of them, I don't know what would be.
  6. You might not be remembering the scene correctly. You're version doesn't make sense.
  7. What is the good in keeping him? What part of our program would get worse if he's fired? On the field play? Recruiting? Fan support/morale? Press coverage? Please tell me one thing that could get worse if we fired Tom right now, tonight? I can't wait to hear it.
  8. Would make a nice night for other news to fly under the radar. Like a firing, for instance.
  9. Then we'd probably be stuck with Tom? The only if that matters here is if Tom had been a better coach so games like those would never have been in doubt.
  10. Don't waste your time. Someone linked a podcast by the old Houston punter where apparently he talked at one point about Herman checking out on the team once he knew he had a tx offer. Problem is, there were several episodes and no mention of where to find the section on this. I'll just assume it was true.
  11. Have you seen the 21 and 22 classes currently? The next coach will need players to win, so that more players want to come here. We're currently losing them. This is our concern, dude.
  12. Read the room, cdc, read the room.
  13. If this could be in any way substantiated, I hope Herman gets fired without a cent of buyout money.
  14. No, you're right. I was off by a year. He started at OSU in 2019 after Meyer.
  15. The only possible reasons I can think of for this are: 1) he was on osus staff under Urban at one point, right? So there's at least some connection. But more importantly 2) if Ewers really was sold on Yurcich as reported, your best chance at bringing him back might be to convince him Herman was the problem and under a new HC he'll have the offense he was sold. The second one is a super longshot, but I could see keeping Yurcich on in some capacity if you believe it gives you a better shot with Ewers.
  16. It can't possibly be any worse than it is...
  17. My list if Meyer says no looks something like this: - anger - depression - alcoholism - hardcore drug experimentation - lose job/home/family as life spirals like a Tom Herman recruiting class - get it together and go to rehab - start fresh - get stable enough to reengage with Texas sports and realize we're still a dumpster fire with whatever g5 coach we hired - fall off wagon - start process over
  18. I think you're confusing him with@NowThis.
  19. Right or wrong, I'm currently choosing to believe that Ewers decommitment was the final straw, and the only reason Herman has not been fired already is that we're two days out from a game and it puts the players/coaches in a strange spot. I'm in the camp that, win or lose, Tom Herman should not be giving a normal Monday presser because news should already be out that he's done. I just can't imagine any other rational explanation for him still being our coach today.
  20. I know, I'm kidding. Mostly I'm at the point where either Urban says yes or I really don't give a fuck. It's option 1 or fuck all of this.
  21. Considering we just lost a huge recruit this morning and our program is spiraling terribly, the odds that a new poster who shows up with super secret inside info is an aggy troll vs legit feel quite high. On the other hand, I like the drug he's selling, so it's probably legit.
  22. Imagine if Vince had decommitted less than 90 days after committing. That pretty much just happened, on top of the other things you mentioned. Oh, and a bunch of stud recruits we were after are going to osu now, probably related to the decommitment.
  23. I see no reason to doubt the validity of this information. Sold.
