So you don’t have a real reason, thanks.

Let me be more clear... He has built a winning program at Baylor and there's no reason to believe it won't continue. He has no ties to Texas so he has no reason to come. He's stated many times that he's about more than just making money...and he'll make plenty of it at Baylor.

So you tell me why he should come? Other than a bigger paycheck what does he gain?

    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

Considering Bijan is the best RB in the Big 12 RIGHT NOW, I’m not too worried about the run/pass balance.

Both our offense and defensive schemes must be changed or it's another 7-5 or 6-6 season.  You know...that shit about Sigmund Freud's definition of insanity.

Maybe we should fire our OC and DC, just a thought.

Ahh yes we've definitely never had 5* busts at the RB position.

Lack of pressure from our front has less to do with the DL coaching or talent and more to do with Orlando’s scheme. How often did you see our best pass rusher actually rushing the passer?  Most downs he seemingly was back-pedaling 15 yards down field. 

 

Orlando was more interested in scheming up exotic blitzes than he was in allowing our big guys go and try to whoop ass of the guy across from them. 

 

 

exactly, he was coaching like he was at Houston playing with Houston players and trying to upset OU/FSU.  Tom herman completely fucked up by not seeing Orlando's D was getting exposed last year after a year of film.

Lets be clear, he had a winning season. We have not seen yet if hes built a winning program

You're giving Herman the benefit of the doubt that he'll hire coordinators who will bring a different plan to the equation.  Can't say I've made that leap of faith.

Fair point... but I'd feel better about his successes if I'm a Baylor fan than I do about ours as a Texas fan.

Disagree here.  Just because he did a lot of things wrong doesn’t mean he did everything wrong.  I don’t remember losing many (if any) players to cramps the past few years.

I wouldn't... but this is not last year.

Right. USC ran the ball something like 49% of thebtime this year. He would mesh his offense with Herman’s to some degree. And I think that would be awesome. 

most of the Leach guys that are from Texas High Schools have a lot of Briles O in them.  Briles O runs the ball a ton.  Leach is a true Mumme disciple.

I'm sure Harrell has some of that in him as well from his dad.

If Harrell was mensa, he should just stay at SC while kicking some ass, wait a few years and wait for Texas to hire the "hottest new co-ordinator" for head coach.  Its what we do.

It’s literally never been something weve done. We never hire coordinators.

I know, I was being facetious because the last 2 guys were basically "co-ordinators".  neither were ready to be coaches at Texas.

Chip (I know) is saying that they’re getting conflicting info on Harrell and to keep an eye on Lashlee.

If Ed Orgeron is smart enough to keep himself from meddling with his OCs work, I have to believe Herman is as well.

The difference is hermans ego.

I didn’t say he was wrong, but something you wouldn’t hear a head coach talking about. We need to get some fake cramps next year @LSU.

Has Lashlee ever been a play caller? 

That Iowa St. DC seems well thought of. Is he on our radar?

Yup. GH is actual Mensa. Dragging out this OC hire for CTH only to stay at USC for a year, to guarantee 2020 for UT is another flop. Then GH can just replace Tom as head coach in 2021.

Todd Orlando is a block head. 

Also, they are suggesting that Herman went to Orlando and told him to move his DEs outside in the Tech game. Then you hear a clip of Roach saying if felt great to be moved outside and that the previous set up was hard to rush under (not that he was complaining).

Basically Roach said, “it’s hard to rush out of the 4i, but it’s something we gotta deal with, it felt good to get out on the edge, I played there a lot as a freshman, felt good to do it again and get after the quarterback.”

the 3 tite is supposed to remove the B gap that spread offenses attack.  the problem I have with it is using it basically exclusively and adding shitty DB/LB coaching to it

Plan B take SMUs offensive coaches.

Shane can’t catch a fucking break. 

The modified "Air Raid" is so much better than the QB "Power Reads".  The current Texas offense under Herman is hard to watch as well as boring.

Sonny Dykes is a "Leach" disciple.  Refer to my reference of above regarding the modified "Air Raid".  I like Sonny.  I used to hang out with him on Spike's house boat at PK.

Edited by 2300 Nueces

Lets just hire Chad Morris as the OC. Herman a fucking Hermit. He is the best OC on the market.

Lashee learned under Malzahn. How much of their current offense is air raid.

Lashlee learned under Malzhan but has spent the last two seasons running Dykes air raid offense. 

 

In in an attempt to make chicken salad out of chicken shit - UConn’s offense improved by nearly 9 points per game when he took over in 2017. 

I’m not sure what Lashlee brings to the table. He’s obviously heavily influenced by Gus and limited time elsewhere. Gus ran him off and I wouldn’t begin to know the extent of his current role.

I always thought that Lashlee wanted to move on and not be tied to Malzahn for the rest of his career.

That’s what they portrayed but Gus wasn’t happy with him and didn’t want to fire his protege. He got him a soft landing spot kind of like what Herman tried to do with a couple coaches last year. Think about it, who goes from Auburn to UConn to SMU? I’m not saying he couldn’t make a good OC, but why wouldn’t he have left for a somewhat equal gig if he was a good coordinator?

Is Lashlee actually running Sonny’s offense?  I saw some Malzahn flavor in their attack, but is that window dressing added to Sonny’s own very credible offensive resume or is Rhett actually in control?
