Herman better have a good fucking plan that we're all just too stupid to understand and is super under wraps. Its pretty fucking apparent that the $9.95s have less than 0 clue Why are we assuming that he wasn’t offered or the numbers reported were false? I could see a scenario where GH decides that a $800k less annual salary is worth it to not coach under CTH.

December 17, 20196 yr Or Harrell took less to stay at USC. Or even more likely, we had agreed to 1.5 and Herman pulled the offer when Harrell tried to pull the trigger. Occam’s razor says Herman doesn’t have a fucking plan, or if he does he’s executing it to perfection and the plan is I’m The Smartest Man Alive.

December 17, 20196 yr The answer all along was so simple and obvious that we all somehow overlooked it. Harrell was never Herman’s true first choice for OC:

December 17, 20196 yr 24 minutes ago, HtownHorn said: Never mind that Colin Johnson missed almost the entire season. Other than Duvernay, he was the only WR with any kind of consistency. My hope is the new OC will look at Malcolm Epps and move him to the portal or TE. Hopefully Eagles, Smith, and Washington are our starting WR's next year. Edited December 17, 20196 yr by Elmer_Fudd

December 17, 20196 yr That’s Cumbie and now Harrell that turned Texas down. I really do think the hatred for Texas runs deep with ex Texas Tech alumni. Real deep. I was surprised at the amount Harrell agreed to. There something else going on there for sure.
December 17, 20196 yr I know who the next OC will be. Subscribe for $9.95 TREEFIDDY to find out on the "secret" surly board for paid members only. fuck that means I actually have to go find out and build a secret board. FML. Nevermind just kidding.

December 17, 20196 yr So Ash got leaked (no formal UT announcement), and now with the Harrell news, what are the chances a DC and OC get announced tomorrow before signing day? Gotta say, it would be nice. With as much as people say Herman is universally disliked, it’s interesting that he’s been able to hang onto a top 10 recruiting class without coordinators and a bunch of dudes waiting to get fired.

SMU football will head to the Boca Raton Bowl, and will face Florida Atlantic in the game that will be played at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday Dec. 21, and aired on ABC. It will be a true home game for FAU.

December 17, 20196 yr From TFB As Super K mentioned earlier this week it appears that offensive coordinator candidate Graham Harrell has chosen to stay at USC: “***I know there have been some reports that Harrell is still in play. All I can tell you is that I’ve reached out to multiple people on the USC and they’ve simply said that if Harrell is planning on leaving, he’s doing a heck of an acting job. Behind the scenes, he seems to be assuring them that he is staying. Take that for what it’s worth. ***I can also confirm that Harrell is telling recruits that he’s staying. Again, take that for what it’s worth. ***USC folks say that Harrell does not believe Herman will fully give him the reigns to the offense. ***Either way, we should know something after the early signing period ends. ***Should Herman strike out on Harrell, a name that might be worth watching is that of Kansas State OC, Courtney Messingham. I did not hear his name mentioned as a candidate but he’s coached multiple positions, he’s coached with Herman, he could help with the Texas run game and he sure did a number on Oklahoma this past season” Super K was on top of this search as he also brought up Kansas State OC Courtney Messingham as a potential fit for Tom Herman and that train of thought seems to be picking up more steam as well. We will bring you more updates when we get them.

The reaction isn't necessarily solely related to this specific hire falling apart, but moreso confirming many fans' preconceived notions of the type of people Herman wants to bring in.
December 17, 20196 yr Kansas State ran a lot of I-formation this year. Not sure if that was from Messingham or Klieman.

One year removed from FCS but has spent plenty of time at P5 Iowa St including as their OC. He’s not a QB coach by trade - we might keep Beck around.
