Courtney Messingham was 3-19 as a head coach at Upper Iowa.

 

Right in Herman's wheelhouse.

    A few things: -If Harrell is the OC, and the rumors are legit but don’t take anything for granted until ink is dry, then Traylor could make a return. Herman would be admitting to a mistake in let

I feel like Tom doesn't understand the basic sentiment that the teams that are best in college football don't play college football. They play pro football against college teams without the salaries.

Hiring loser fucking college coordinators isn't going to get Texas to being an elite program. It's going to get the same results as all the other loser tier schools. 

Messingham seems...very uninspiring

Pro tip. Dick’s and razors don’t mix. Unless you prefer the Hebrew tip. 

That's circumspect advice.

Seriously - despite 30 years in football - no one has heard of that fucking guy. 

I definitely know of the guy, being my #2 college team is NDSU. Just... I don't see it.

Have to laugh at how much fun it will be to see Surly meltdown humor for Mensa and a guy named "Courtney Messingham"

I’d rather have major

I said last offseason that Herman should hire Major to replace Beck, but folks negged me for it. If he had did that, Herman wouldn't be in a position that he's coaching for his job next season.

K State was ranked 92nd in total offense, this is so Mensa.

Why demote Tim Beck to hire Tim Beck with a different name, and without the same defense and special teams structure to surround him?

This place is about to get a whole lot less pleasant. 

It’s like Tom just turned it up to 11!!!

Obviously, we didn’t offer Fuck You $!

Lmao hiring major would be a last resort to appease the fan base/alumni. So it’s probably a top priority of Tom

Would it?

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. 

This is very true based on my interaction with Tech associates.

Tadlock  did not accept the baseball offer.

I refuse to believe this fucking guy is under consideration. 

 

This is all misdirection - Lashlee will be named OC right before NSD1. 

I don’t think it’s close to a lock that Lashlee would take the job 

If we hire Lashlee or the KSU OC, we might as well start looking at who will be on the 2021 coaching staff.

Courtney Messingham. I did not hear his name mentioned as a candidate but I need to drum up clicks so I’m making shit up.

This would be the biggest middle finger from Tom Herman yet. Here is a blank check with unlimited funds to go money whip the best coaching staff possible. 

Tom Herman’s response? 

Hold my beer and watch this!

I mean his offense was potent at uh.  Not my first choice as I think he’s a choad and I do believe he will get herm fired but I’ll stand by what I said

He also runs a law firm in his spare time.

Every time I check this thread, I feel worse. 

It won't shock me if I read here tomorrow about a 150% beer tax, Trump being declared Caesar by the Senate and we've hired rehired GD GD.

Watching you and hippo smugly whistle past the graveyard is one of the more entertaining aspects of this clown show.

At least I will not go into the 2020 season with any sort of enthusiasm.

Herman hires that dude I’m officially canceling season tickets.

He literally said he had heard anything on this and everyone is freaking out about it as if it’s happening. 
 

Oh, and this outcome has little impact on my life.

$1.2m: USC got a discount here, and if GH was really in play, USC would have had to up the ante.  At least $1.7m.  USC did not fear GH actually leaving.  For whatever reason.

Which means that this has been grinding for a week, USC finally put an ultimatum to GH, and voila, he had to sign.   If this was really about who has the keys, it should have broken bad a week ago.

There was something else in play.

Beck staying as a QB coach/recruiting guru: Sweet, more than fine with it

Moustacheingham as the OC hire: yeeeeeeesh

Are you even aware we’re in the midst of a complete shitshow? Honest question...

You don’t have to cancel your season tickets if you never had them in the first place!  Genius move.

Hiring loser fucking college coordinators isn't going to get Texas to being an elite program. It's going to get the same results as all the other loser tier schools. 

At this point, get both of the HC’s from this years high school state champ game. Who ever wins is the OC...

I know this might come as a shock to some, but Major is an extremely average OC. 

LOL, I've watched so many 2013 UT football highlights over the years because I tuned out CFB that season. I'd take Major based on what I've seen from those highlights

Considering Beck couldn't call plays by himself, any extremely average OC would be an upgrade.

Listen DramaColt. This shitshow is mostly brought to you by $9.95ers. We have no idea what’s really going on which leads us to drown in our own imagination. If we choose to...

We do know that we hired Ash and did not land our top OC target. This is a full on shit show.
