Last thing we need is to fire Herman with no replacement lined up like what happened with Mack in 2013. The coaching search and public rejection from Jim Mora was total circus.

I'm still of the belief that Urban wants this shit kept quiet until Tom is let go. 

The circus was because we kept Mack around for almost two months so he could drive away recruits and sabotage the coaching search. Get the old coaches out of there ASAP to limit their ability to destroy the program in the interim if you want to avoid a circus.

[horn4life 3755]

IF we get Meyer, Herman is gone.  But if not Urban Meyer, what coach you gonna bring in that justifies your almost $16 million buyout?  I think it' a legitimate question.  What if Sam and a few other guys want to come back and finish things off right?  Would that figure into the decision making?  Would that be a good or bad thing, for recruiting and team dynamics?

Too bad the flashes of brilliance were overshadowed by stupidity and penalties.

I don't entirely disagree....

 

But to be the devils advocate.....We fired Mackovic before we hired Mack.........That was actually my most enjoyable/least stressful coaching search....

Urban apparently and wisely is considering many variants concerning this job.  I guarantee you one thing he isn’t considering is what fucking Mack Brown thinks.

Not to go CR, but imagine a man who suffers from delusions of his own greatness and is as petty a fuck as ever walked the planet.  There's your analog for Mack Brown.

[SquishMitten 10398]

Perhaps getting his guys back together have a larger impact than we think. If he’s worried about the stress, it wouldn’t help that if he had to find new supporting staff. If so, maybe the outcome of games going on the next week or two could sway some of his guys to join him. Maybe we’re not waiting on the results or timing of the Longhorn games, but other teams. 

If he’s worried about the stress of coaching here, then he wouldn’t even bother looking to put together a staff. Coming off two bad hires, it’s arguably the most high stress job in college football right now. A dream team of assistants isn’t going to change that very much.

It's a question of simple accounting........What do you want to see happen to the donations and season ticket sales next year if Herman is here.  Plus, consider the in general depressing effect such a cloud over the football program would have on every other athletic programs donations and enthusiasm......

 

Luke Fickel(as an example) would not generate the buzz of Meyer nor reinvigorate the program to the same level, but there are plenty of people that would jump right back on the train for next season if Fickel was hired that will not do so if Herman is still here.

Only legitimately good news I've seen on this board in weeks.  If Roach is saying it then Sanders must have already signed the NLI and moved on-campus.

In the Big 12 we have to beat the rest of the league, and then beat OU in the title game. We consistently fail to do this rather straightforward and doable thing. I am not really excited about adding "also beat Ohio State" to that formula.

with the failure of the F900 last night, my wishcasting has moved to a new paradigm which shades the "sunday or else" consensus we seem to currently be on.....:

I'm obviously biased, but not sold that the Kendra F900 was a nothingburger. No offense to theBigHen and his thirteen posts, but all we heard was that there was no one "recognizably important" on the plane. The theory was it was Urban friends & family, so wouldn't expect them to be. The little we were told was passengers included "a man, a middle aged man, and a woman."

The woman could have been Shelley or a daughter.@ChiTownDoc also said the following yesterday in re to the Sarasota to ATX flight: "Those are people close to Urbs.  Bruce Cassidy is very close to Urban and his family.  He owns the concession golf club in Sarasota.  I’ll let you all connect the dots." Bruce Cassidy is a middle-aged man. As for the third man, no idea, but in theory could be any other friend/family member without more details. 

And all that is underscored by the fact that the report came third-hand from a friend at Atlantic, and theBigHen even noted that "they have strict protocols now after what happened when Saban came to town." Friend could have given theBigHen bad info, not gotten an eye on others on the plane (didn't sound he like he had a close/good vantage point given the very limited and vague details we got), been scouting out the wrong plane - or hell, maybe the friend doesn't exist.

Just saying, not staking my life on the plane being a bonafide hit, we'll probably never know. But way too much went on with it before the ATX landing for me to dismiss it given the above.
