Tom "the turtle" Herman [Lame Duck or greatest 5d chess player ever?]

I'm not typically a quick trigger on these things (held off on Strong longer than most). That said, I've seen enough, and if you haven't I'd genuinely like to know what it's gonna take.

He's not wrong.  There is absolutely no reason that UT should have 2 conference championships in the last 22 years.  Two.  It's inexcusable.

Meyer will not be available after next year.  He is available now.  Time to cut bait and make our move or forever suck.....  Texas football has done less with more than any other school in cfb history, except aggy.

Modern era Michigan and Notre Dame would like a word with you.

Well, there you go.
He believed those shitty run calls would go for yards.  And then when they didn't, he believed another idiotic call wouldn't suck and would somehow get the first down.  First downs of course being the most important thing for that series.

That dumb fucker thought ISU would sit on their TO. Texas had probably 30 yards running in designed plays. That was when ISU was necessarily expecting them.

This team doesn't understand have any type of situational awareness. That's a coaching issue. 

The staff can't teach it when they don't have it.

the best part is on the prior question he had just explained how the running game was not working.

I'm not sure why we would ever want a G5 HC here bad.  Charlie was such a clusterfuck we had to react with no plan and no AD.  Tom gets next year and if CDC isn't trying to figure out his next move for the next 12 months he sucks as bad as Herman.   This shit is what we pay him for. we don't pay him for pre game shit or crappy 3rd tier sports. We pay him to get football, baseball and basketball right.

Out of the available coaches.  Would I have rather had a Saban or Meyer, sure.

I stand corrected but they don't have the talent pool we have, so........

It’s Going to be really tough to get the best coordinators to come when it’s a desperation move.   The time to do it was after year one for OC and after last year for DC.  Of course, a really good HC would have made a better OC hire to begin with.  

This is a real concern.  What decent coordinator will work under Tom?

We’re stuck with this at least two more years. CDC will give him a reprieve if he demoted Beck and Orlando. Then we suffer through another year of mediocrity. So maybe in 2021 after he’s lost another game like this, we’ll move on to the next guy.

Huh? Didn't Notre Dame make the CFP?

 

 

You’re right, but they haven’t won a title since 1988. Michigan 1997. Texas 2005. 
 

Vince Young saved our ass and Colt nearly did it as well.

well to be fair, charlie lost to Kansas.  Tom didnt.     but hes now lost to 2 teams who will join Texas in the dead fucking middle of the Big 12 pack- which is exactly what he did at Houston. He won lots of big games against ranked teams, and lost multiple games inexplicably against mediocre/bad teams

Um.  Tom almost lost to Kansas...at home.. with far more talent.

None.  Motherfucker doubled down on dumbass Beck and Frodd Orlando.  That's why the only option at this point is to fire Tom.  He made his choices.  Dumb motherfucker.

Herman has terrible coaching instincts. I don't know if these improve over time, given how long he's been doing this already. His teams are generally dumb...that's a reflection of coaching. He's just not the guy. 

When people say "Texas doesn't care enough about football" - this is what they mean: with Urban sitting out there, a lot of schools would already be firing Herman to sign him. Texas will not. And that's why Texas won't be on the same level as the Alabamas and Ohio States of the world.

This.  The dumb mother fucker passed up the field goal early, on the road, and it cost us the game.  He has no intuition for in game management.

Remember the 4th down call against Okie State? He said that was the right decision too

that goddamn game was a fred fucking akers special. that shit he ran right after the d forced a punt in the 4th was right out of the fred akers sweep right 4 times on the fucking ou goal line for no fucking gain to lose the game playbook.

time for this assclown to go.

Meanwhile. Baylor who went through a semi death penalty is killing it.

This is my concern.  The rapists will supplant us as the ousux counterbalance.  They will be the #2 team in the B12.  Hell, I think they'll win it all and be champs.  Yet, here we are stressing over Tom's shit show for another 2 years.  Just fire him already.
