  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. I certainly think Campbell would be a huge improvement over Herman. How much of an improvement remains to be seen.
  5. Maybe Tony Elliot at Clemson? Doubt we’d hire a Coordinator to “learn on the job” as Head Coach here though.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. 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.
  13. Anyone else catch Brando on the Baylor-OU game say something about Stoops auditioning for Urban's current job or something along those lines?
  14. 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.

  16. Boba going ham on the storm troopers and them eventually tucking tail and running was probably my favorite action sequence of the entire show. Very well-done.
  17. Anyone know what Urban was making at Fox before all of this???
  18. Hell if I remember correctly they had blacklab on the Midday show right around the time this site launched
  19. I get that. I was just curious if he has any kind of demonstrated insight into the program in the past such as with the assistant coaching overhaul last year or if he just makes shit up.
  20. Does alumnihorn even have a proven track record?
  21. Bohls and Davis are just University mouthpieces trying to make it look like we're not negotiating with Urban and his camp without even formally firing Herman
  22. I'll temper my excitement until Fancy Boots confirms these reports
  23. Never tried it with ketchup. Good call. I'll give that a shot next time.
