Curious about you alls thoughts about Tom Herman as Head Coach.

He won at Houston but did not win enough at Texas.  Was the OC at Ohio State during Urban Meyers tenure.  

With him I would want to see a solid DC hire.

I think he could succeed here in the new AAC. I just don't think he will stay if he has one or two good seasons.

There is Tom Herman discussion in other threads.  I’d suggest you search for those too.

Gotta get the Stadium built.

1) Urban Meyers (already lives in area. 

2) Tom Hermen

3) Matt Ruhle

4) Simmons ( FAMU)

5) Kendall Briles

6) Scott Frost (he really recruited well in Fla)

Do you think Meyers would be hands off or hands on?

To be clear are we talking about the women in Tampa or the players?

Maybe but didn't we try this with Strong? Killed it at UL and fizzled out at texas? Houston was already winning when Herman came in. His best season as a HC was literally just that first season with UH so there's no evidence he himself can recruit and coach up through a full class cycle to success.

That's kind of debatable. His second year at UT, 10-4 (7-2) with a BCS bowl win, considering the competition, could also be classified as his best ...... and there's little comparison to Chuck, imo. Strong sucked at Texas, going 16-21 (12-15), while Herman went 31-18 (22-13). Frost is a lot more Chuck-like than TH.

    Last I checked the scoreboard doesn't have a spot for current bank balance on it.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
