As long as he sets up the next coach like he did Ryan Day at OSU. Urban is being brought in to set up his hand picked successor. I don't think he will coach more than 5 -7 seasons before turning it over.

Well he left three schools and only one is at the same level or near right after he left. the other two went south in different ways (utah more just kinda bounces up and down for a bit) so the odds of that are not exactly a good.

Drew Lock was critical of Herman in a posted news article here, and many ridiculed Lock. Being a classless prick only works if you’re better than a .600 coach.

I will give you this that Herman underestimated the culture of defeat he was buying into. People like yourself are completely kneejerk and the lack of any worthwhile ideas make you want to see the coach fired.

They could fire Herman tomorrow and the same posters would be on here a year or two from now wanting the next coach fired. Until the culture is eradicated there will continue to be problems. Do you honestly think the problem is these coaches that have a history of success until they come to UT are the problem?

Are you still here?

Yes, because Kyle Whittingham has been an absolute disaster.

I changed it to say Utah has bounced up and down but he still has had multiple losing seasons and right after Urban left he won the year after with his talent and then dropped to 7-5 years which is the exact thing UT fans would be livid about.  Whittingham is fine there because Utah fans will not lose their shit too much after back to back 5-7 seasons

Drew Lock was a mouthy then whiny little punk. Herman shouldn't have done it. Both things are true.

Ole Miss and Arkansas are already better than us. 

Tennessee is as well and that's a scarred program that has been wandering in the darkness [with a carousel of poor coaches] even longer than we have.

$30M for Herman buyout
$50M guaranteed to Meyer for 5 years
$10M in bonus options for Meyer

Who knows the big money guys? Let's get the phones humming.

Someone please explain the $30mn buyout for Tom Herman! His buyout is $5mn per season and he has 3 years left after this season. That is $15mn. Assistant coaches have 2-3 year contracts and therefore 1-2 years left and the average pay is like $350k (coordinators are $1mn). That is at most $5mn.

Fuck the buyout.  I know a guy who can throw a platoon of dead hookers over his fence and all his buddies fences.  Problem solved.  Even went to SMU.

Can his son come too?  Need someone to clean my storage shed.  Lock him in there until he’s done.

Meyer said last year he would have taken the Cowboys job. I think he’d also take Texas, with a large part of the appeal the big F/U to Tom Herman it would offer. 

He’s open to coaching again.

Meyer would take the Texas job tomorrow if offered.

Okay, Mrs. Meyer. 

I’m house shopping right now for us.

Seriously.   Meyer was one of the few from a college outside the usual suspects to recruit well in Texas when he was at tOSU.   For an outsider with no ties to the state, that says something.   Imagine what he could do being based in this state.  And plus their wouldn’t be a recruiting drop off which occurs during a transition because the newbie is trying to assemble a staff. The name brings instant creditably.

If you need the fence torn down, I know a guy.

Such a pussy

No I have just read all the Briles jokes and how Baylor sold their soul and Meyer has left two places in turmoil and Florida not far off from what Briles did at Baylor. I am just pointing out that UT would basically be doing what Baylor did and selling the soul. Me personally I am fine with it but I mean we got people crying about players not staying for Eyes after the game today, I can only imagine the uproar if Meyers starts doing his same shit.

Just having some fun at you guys expense. Sit back and enjoy what is beginning to look like a sub .500 season. If you get a chance tune into some ATM Football and watch a real team in a real conference play ball.

OBTW I love the negs. It's your only response to the truth you don't want to hear.

i'm cool with winning a national championship or 2 over the next 4 years and then have Urban bail on us. Damn sure beats keeping Herman for 2 years  and then hiring another unproven coach to wander another 4 or 5 years

Who is ATM?

most people I know who follow the agricultural & mechanical college of Texas simply say, “anm.” 
Y’all have one win every five years like today; it never changes anything. You are little brother,  just wanting attention. Nothing imaginative in your post.

he's a reliable front runner 

you don't have to check the scores to know if A&M wins a meaningful game, you just have to look for trolls on Texas sites

what is the second place he left in turmoil? 

Fla was the big one and while the OSU one was small he still left when things started getting spicy and many around OSU said if he would have stayed more would have come out.

Aren’t there any surly posters with some inside information? Like know what’s going on with the BMDs etc (I admit giving them the control to pick the next coach is a little frightening)? Why don’t we have someone imbedded on the inside? In the know?
