Recruiting class is about to become a train wreck. Is there an argument for firing him now, or does that make the class even worse?

Absolutely. This is already gonna be a transition class. If you don’t fire him this year, then 2022 will be our second transition class in a row.

Just stopping by to unfollow this thread because decommitt season is about to go hard in the paint.

About to?

[Dbeasy 14969]

No, I’m talking about Monday.

Lol. Why not? I mean who really gives a fuck? This thing is gonna be a total shitshow regardless. 

[Dbeasy 14969]

That’s where my head is starting to go. If Matt Campbell is the choice then you have to just try to get recruits to wait for the announcement. If it’s Urban, you could actually bring him in Tuesday. He already likes Ash.

We aren’t fucking firing Tom Herman today and hiring urban Meyer tomorrow dummies

Matt Campbell is not going to quit his current job during the season when he is in a good position to win the conference. For him at least you have to wait for the end of the season. Only someone like Meyer who is currently not coaching can be hired right now.

That’s not what I meant. If it’s Campbell then obviously you have to wait to the end of the season.

If it’s Urban, then why not do it now? I realize this is a crazy idea that’s never been done before, as far as I am aware, but I’d they do want him, why not now ?

no shit, you do it Monday. Then Tuesday becomes the big day.

shit, do it midway through the Rewind taping. Like have Herman review the game with Lowell and then announce that he's gone when you come back from commercial break.

No excuse to not fire Herman this week. Perfect time to have a bye. Fucking see you Tom, you won’t be missed 

[squeegeedegg 723]

Herman and the team are playing like they believe this year is not a real year of football, and it's entirely possible the rest of the athletic department feels that way as well.  Fuck.

There is no other right way to do it.  Thots and prayers this happens

[Michael Knight 12898]

everyone can go fuck their own faces

[Dijon Robinson 1511]

Don't let that drive distract you from the fact that Tom Herman should be fired

[RGBIII 22798]

No matter how this game plays out...fire Tom Herman

Lol this thread is now the football board, been quite the experience watching the blend/denial that it wasn’t one in the same. That said fire everyone.

[satyanash 14281]

More of the "great week of practice" BS

 

[Dijon Robinson 1511]

Watching the presser on LHN. Tom's demeanor reminds me of Strong after the Kansas loss in 2016. Sounds like his voice is about to break.

Not  really. Once meyer is hired the class will stay intact might even add a few 4 stars

Giving odds is silly. We're 2-2. Let's see how we feel after a few more head scratchers.

He said pretty definitively earlier today that if Herman gets fired it won't be until after the season

What the fuck does Nahlin know? They’ve pumped koolaid almost every fall camp since Herman has been here. They’re the leaders of the “this team is tough and full of high character guys”. Fuck IT they’re clueless

They've also said since the summer that the biggest question was whether or not Herman could change his mentality. On paper this team should be miles better than it is.

Dear Tom,

Take the losses, pussy.

I don't believe that 9.95ers would hedge like that.  Not at all. "Might be the best team in years unless it's not."

Herman has definitely lost the team (and I'm not sure he ever really got them back after the Iowa State loss last year), but I'm not sure how the players not staying on the field for the Eyes plays into that. Not like the discussion surrounding the Eyes is somehow Herman's fault.

But if Nahlin is also saying that Herman's status is imperiled by BMDs being upset about players not participating in the Eyes...well that's almost certainly accurate.
