Herman cutting bait and bring in a new staff lol. The assistants will have all the power in these contract negotiations and We're gonna pay out the ass.

Not sure I buy Chris Ash as the top choice, but he's not necessarily a bad option. His tenure at Rutgers is irrelevant.

He was at OSU, and wasn't going to be retained by the new coach.

Really the only 2 left that everyone really wants is Warehime and Horny.

I'm choosing to believe that Ash is merely interim for the bowl game, and that Odom, Scalley, et al will be considered.

if it translates to success on the field it's worth it.. we need to embrace this as a mercenary school for coordinators and position coaches

holy shit I'm in shock.. didn't expect Herman to grow nuts 

Wake me up when his buddy Beck is fired. He's a bigger issue than Orlando. Both need to be gone.

Who cares? It's not like it's our money. Pay out the ass. Don't we have lots of money? Why not spend it?

I don't care whatsoever, I was merely pointing that out. Most coordinators will know Herman's on the hot seat and they'll have all the leverage is all. I don't give a shit, I think we should spend the shit out of our money is it means wins

Nope, Orlando 's contract was extended thru 2020 season when raised to $1.7mill  @Johnny Sack

Wrong. Beck can be valuable if staffed appropriately. He shouldn’t be game planning or calling plays.

If we get Harrell and he's cool with Beck being a TE or QB coach..whats the real issue? He wasn't calling plays anyways..that's on TOM

They only looked better after spotting the other team 14 points on easy wide-open long-gain pass plays. 

That was just deception in making the other team over confident.  Mensa tactics.

Derek Warehime? It is taking way to freaking long for this name to show up on the list of folks that are gone.

If you wanna mensa world a better place, you gotta look in the mirror and mensa change?

Lincoln Riley went out and got Alex Grinich from Ohio State. We're out dumpster diving for Chris Ash

JFC. Chris Ash won a national championship as Co-DC at Ohio State. Grinch, in the same position, helped coach the worst Buckeye defense I've ever seen. It's good for Alex that someone hired him because Ryan Day wasn't keeping him on. Day replaced most of the defensive coaching staff from last year and the results speak for themselves. I'd take Ash over Grinch any day.

I thought every assistant contract except Hand and Orlando’s expired March 2020. And Hand/Orlando are under contract through next season?

This is just not true at all. #15 offense in country, he’s a great recruiter, and a good QB coach. Ten times more valuable than Orlando, who doesn’t recruit, defense ranked #115, and whose positions group(LB) is fighting to take the number one spot for worst position group on the team. You’re out of your mind if you think Beck is more of a problem than Orlando

3 years too late but maybe CDC can keep the ship afloat.  pleasantly surprised. we are not 5-7,5-7,6-7 with blowouts galore.  a real P5 staff could get us back in short order assuming we hold the portal chaos in check.

Succeed at Texas and you write your ticket.  Somebody who thinks the way you do is not somebody we want.

weird thing is that the D was improving and the O declining.

I’m irritated by the bLtimore assholes  

Maybe we should let Beck coach defense for the bowl. He has a long history of being able to shut down an offense.

This!   I mean next season is where he makes his employment  a long term deal at Texas vs losing his job because of his arrogance and becoming radioactive in the coaching world to the point he'd be lucky to get a coordinator job at a mid major or even an FCS job.   

I’d like to believe that all these firings/reassignment will make a difference...BUT...historically, what HC’s do y’all know that have been successful when forced to do so. I mean so he hires new cooordinators etc...does this mean we’re automatically gonna be conference beaters? I just see this as the last stand of Herman’s regime. Hope I’m wrong because watching UT football for the last decade has (save a few bright spots) really sucked.

We had the same issues on D as we’ve had the entire 3 years, they were just better hidden by the circumstances of the game and having experienced players back. Poor containment, dbs not playing the ball, covering grass in zone, poor tackling form, guys not playing in their optimum positions.  

Edited by ClubWhatever

That it took three years for Herman to make these changes, and that he brought a staff of P5 buddies, both are bad signs for his future here.

But, it was pointed out that Herman appears never to have fired an assistant coach.  Which goes to show what a really baby coach he is.  It is conceivable that he learns on the job and becomes what we hope/want him to be.

And also underscores what an inadequate, foolish hire he was in the first place.

D gave the illusion of improving because it couldn't get any worse and we were playing a lot of new faces who didn't get coached to suck.

JFC. Anwar needed sources to come to these conclusions?

Nope. The Defense was facing worse offenses playing at slower paces, but the quality of play wasn’t going up.
