9.3.18 Coach Herman press conference (Noon)

[bschoolprof 6,252]

Any dipshit fan can tell we suck. It takes Mensa to tell us why. 

[bigup2dahorns 3,343]

Chip with the first question today about the QB situation

[ClubWhatever 12,134]

Kill the wabbit, kill the wabbit

[Handcruser 2,805]

He's so full of shit. Just said the players might have made mistakes because they haven't been this close before.

How about last year when we choked like 5 times?

You know what happens to Lenny at the end of Of Mice and Men....

[Bevo Num1 1,011]

Herman's new name is Lenny.

[Red Five 40,854]

He thinks Sam got better as the game went on.

[FriendofaFriend 93]

Quit the fucking quivering in your voice. If you are gonna be an asshole, act like one.

At least he’s admitting the team is regarded.

[nineliveslost 2,753]

bwhahaha. I get it now. Tom is trolling us. Thats mensa genius shit right there

[taybo20 2,825]

Mensa needs to use some of this fucking window dressing distraction in his offense. Maybe it’ll help distract the defense

[TexasMan 10,891]

 

[Horn of Gabriel 1,614]

He is going to regret that Of Mice and Men analogy for the rest of his career.   It will span memes of memes.

[Tracer Bullet 183]

Was Herman's major comparative literature or something?

Taking coaches to task for not reading Steinbeck novels, overly flowery and ornate language to sound smart, etc.

[alphahorn 1,637]

he's going to ride beck and sam to his firing

[bigup2dahorns 3,343]

Asked if it is time to bring in Shane to start?

A: No, don’t think it’s time for that. Nobody played perfect but we aren’t gonna demote Sam on the depth chart.

[Nick Diaz 107]

All this QB nonsense is giving Herman a complete fucking pass from dodging/answering any "fire/demote Tim Beck" questions.

Mensa, bruh.  You just don't get it.  Steinbeck holds the keys.  Wait til he gets them to read The Grapes of Wrath before OU.  It's on.

[RoyalBevo21 767]

"This one game will not define us"

I disagree completely, this game should perfectly encompass the season. Start off like shit, look decent in the middle, close it out stepping on our own dick and go into the off-season the same way we just went into this season. This program has mentally worn me down. 

[Bevo Num1 1,011]

If Shane can see shit Sam isn't, why isn't Shane playing?

Yep. 

[Red Five 40,854]

Hey guess what, can’t hear the questions.

[alphahorn 1,637]

coach, how many games do you need to lose with sam before you recognize that he's killing your career here

[Bevo Num1 1,011]

coach, how many games do you need to lose with sam before you recognize that he's killing your career here

How many books did Steinbeck write?

[taybo20 2,825]

Fuck this shit. Herman sucks ass

[Nick Diaz 107]

Why the fuck won't any of these pussy reporters ask about playcalling...

[bschoolprof 6,252]

Can hear them on LHN.

Yep.  RamJet and TreatyOak will have a field day, here.

[RedDirtTexan 209]

Steinbeck has more of a pulse than our offense

Now that's fucking comedy.

Tell Gary not to be a dumbass.

[Not a Sock 2,313]

Well that of mice and men reference will be great when you are teaching freshman English and coaching special teams in Brownsville, Tom.

[Surly Bevo 24,908]

Come out totally unprepared and unable to adjust when being paid $5M per.  Yea you better be ready to suck on some grapes of wrath motherfucker

Right...so when Simple Jack cost us the game against USC. Or plays so badly we get blown out...We turn to Shane to try and save the season? If I was Shane I'd tell Herman to fuck off. But Boo is too nice for that 

[mdleast 8,289]

But an hour long rain delay with the prospect of pizza, Tom.

If you're going to quote Steinbeck, then how about East of Eden and "timshel".  "Thou mayest" call the plays, thou mayest start shane who is 5-2 since you've been head coach, thou mayest play Ingram in the second half.  Free will coach to make better decisions.

[taybo20 2,825]

herman is fucking stupid. He decided not to play Ingram.

you don’t need experience, you need your best fucking player. 

[bigup2dahorns 3,343]

And now the Ingram question

A: we will continue to see his role progress as the season goes along. Herman made the call to go with Porter in the second half. Said we need experience at that point in the game on the road coming off the rain delay

[Izhmash 562]

Doesn't Tre Watson technically have more experience than Porter...even if it's with a different school?

[Tracer Bullet 183]

Herman:

"Sam can't be indecisive in the 4th quarter.  It's like Shakespeare's play, Hamlet.  I think his first quarter was eerily similar to when Hamlet saw his father's ghost and froze.  Very similar to Sam's decision making.  And we can't dwell on it and go all Hamlet act 3, you know?"

At the very least we'll get a shitty synopsis of some work of literature every week

[rickyspub 801]

So no one asked if Steinbeck also liked to go to titters?

No you stupid fuck....that's not how any of this shit works.

[alphahorn 1,637]

Ingram averaged over 6 ypc, by far the best on the team, bench his ass

Classic Mack.

[Not a Sock 2,313]

Porter over Ingram.  I might fucking explode

He was referring to watson over Ingram.

He didn’t answer why to Kyle porter was playing WR

[Sejjr 3,246]

Yeah but Tre Watson "fumbled". He wasn't squeezing the rabbit tight enough.
