Much easier path to the playoffs than the SEC and we will make you the highest paid coach in history Would we pay him 12 mil?

No one gives me the goosebumps. Robert Saleh is kind of the NFL version of Muschamp. I don't know much about Matt Patricia or Brendan Daly other than their names. Patricia was great at finishing last in the league.

December 7, 20205 yr This is a real question, I'm not a troll, and I understand many will shit on me for even asking. I'll start by saying that it's clear to me that Herman is not a *bad* coach. He obviously does not perform up to our standards and seems like a pompous ass who rubs many fans, admin. and BMDs the wrong way, but he is an above average college coach. My personal view of college football over the past 15 years, and even more so over the past decade, is that there are 1-5 truly elite college coaches who can predictably and systematically win at the highest levels. Then there are a bunch of coaches who, whether because they don't have truly elite talent, or get outcoached sometimes but not most of the time, lose 2-5 games every year. This is totally variable from year to year, but generally these are coaches that win more than they lose to varying degrees. Herman is obviously one of those coaches. Can someone who knows more about recruiting tell me why we should buy out Herman, pay another probably very comparable coach as much or more to come here, only to continue to lose a similar number of games year to year? Having missed on Urban, why is it out of the question to simply ride with Herman, who is at least winning (more than we could say about Strong)? I gather it's to save and re-invigorate recruiting, but I don't see evidence that there is someone out there who will keep Bama and Clemson and especially tOSU from taking the best recruits out of Texas for the foreseeable future. It really seems like missing out on Urban means we are back at Herman being our best option, which at least means winning twice as many games as we lose until someone else emerges as a truly elite option. Getting rid of him because we hate his personality and because he isn't one of the best 5 coaches in the country, when none of those dudes is available, seems like cutting your nose off to spite your face, but I honestly don't know enough about the damage to recruiting that this approach would do in the medium and long term. Someone please enlighten me.Go home Tom, you’re drunk!

I don't know if you have had experience trying to help out an alcoholic. It overtakes a person. They literally cannot have one additional drop of alcohol the rest of their life and have to avoid being around alcohol at all times. That is hard to do with a functioning alcoholic and I would supect much harder with a non functioning alcoholic who shows up to his work drunk.
