  1. Kinda funny actually that they turned down Mensa for Shane Beamer
  2. Seeing Slave I in action is definitely one of my favorite parts of this season. Such a badass ship. Although rewatching the full space battle seismic charge scene from AOTC reminded me of how damn cringey young Boba was in AOTC. Thank goodness they are turning him into a badass and then some in this show
  3. Caddox already bringing that legendary Night Crew Big Dick Energy. Thank you for your service
  4. We could also theoretically keep Ash and some of the defensive staff and save buyout money with those assistants too.
  5. IF he were to leave now would be the time with him likely losing Trask, Grimes, Pitts, and Toney to the NFL next year. It would stand to reason that the offense would take a step back next year.
  6. Basically it all reads like a carefully worded version of “Herman is our coach going into next season (until he’s not)”
  7. Maybe a subplot of Vader hunting down remaining Jedi and in particular Obi-Wan? It’ll be interesting for sure. Glad to have Ewan McGregor back in the fold.
  8. I just don’t see how you can bring Herman back after effectively neutering him by courting Urban and not publicly supporting Tom. CDC would put his job in jeopardy by keeping Herman another year because if Herman doesn’t survive next year, CDC is probably on the chopping block too. A new coach could prolong his time here, and if a new coach has big-time success CDC looks like a genius. He just had to find a coach that the BMDs can get behind to help find Tom’s buyout. Not someone like Gary Kubiak.
  9. I think he’d have us competing for conference championships on a regular basis (more so than Herman), but I don’t know whether or not he’d have us competing on a national level with teams like Clemson, Ohio State, Bama, etc.
  10. I certainly think Campbell would be a huge improvement over Herman. How much of an improvement remains to be seen.
  11. Maybe Tony Elliot at Clemson? Doubt we’d hire a Coordinator to “learn on the job” as Head Coach here though.
  12. If our next best option is Gary Kubiak we are fucked. Would end up more along the lines of Bill Callahan or Mike Sherman, not Pete Carroll.
  13. If Campbell leaves I wonder if Heacock would get a look for ISU Head Coach. If we got Campbell it'd be nice to get Heacock too since he's fielded very successful defenses in such an offensively dynamic conference.
  14. I wonder if Kubiak would try installing his pro-style offense? Either way it wouldn’t necessarily be an inspiring hire to put it mildly.
  15. Well how good of a recruiter was Saban at Michigan State? I genuinely don’t know the answer to that, but it would stand to reason that if Campbell came here and had immediate success and competed for conference championships, his job as a recruiter would be a lot easier.
  16. That’s fair but I’d rather take a chance on someone with more head coaching experience at the college level, but like you’re alluding to the options aren’t necessarily great because I’m not sure someone like Cristobal or Franklin would be any better than Herman - they both lose to teams they shouldn’t and make questionable in-game decisions. I’m high on Matt Campbell but I’m certainly no expert.
  17. Look Traylor may very well be a solid hire, and honestly some of y’all are making him sound intriguing, but holy fuck it sucks if our options go from one of the GOAT college coaches to a dude who’s 6-4 at UTSA with only one year of G5 head coaching experience. If one of the dings on Herman was that he wasn’t prepared for this job, how on earth is Traylor prepared? At least people like Campbell have multiple years of experience and relative success at P5 stops. Fuck it, throw 8 - 10 million/year at Mullen and make him say no.
  18. I just don't see how you can keep Herman for another year after effectively neutering him with all of this. If you can't poach someone like Mullen (which would be highly doubtful considering he's already built a top program in the easier division of the SEC), Matt Campbell is the best bet comparatively at least. Cristobal or Franklin would not be much of an improvement over Herman. Campbell at least knows how to win in the Big 12, beat OU, and has multiple years of head coaching experience at multiple schools. Recruiting ability for Campbell would be a huge question mark, but it's hard to assess that because it's hard to set the recruiting world on fire at Iowa fucking State. Just my 2 cents.
  19. Anyone else catch Brando on the Baylor-OU game say something about Stoops auditioning for Urban's current job or something along those lines?
  20. The firing probably wouldn't come until tomorrow since we technically aren't mathematically eliminated from the Big 12 Championship Game unless OU loses both of their next 2 games. So once we're officially mathematically eliminated he'll be fired tomorrow. Hell if Urban says he's in Tom still probably gets fired tomorrow regardless of the result of Baylor-OU.
