Tom "the turtle" Herman [Lame Duck or greatest 5d chess player ever?]

It’s not just right play. It’s player personnel. 
Having Beck/Porter split out wide is nuts. It fools no one and whatever perceived flexibility the staff believes they gain from being able to quickly move to a running play is lost due to suckitude as viable route runners of Beck/Porter on passing downs. 
agreed. for me, personnel is part of the play. calling plays that do not optimize or match the personnel is calling the wrong plays.

Sick of watching all these teams put their opponents away in the first half like they’re supposed to while we struggle with fucking Maryland.

Fuck you, Tom.

Struggle?   I thought we lost.  We may struggle tonight.

1.5 is the line.  There will be at least one lazy out pass that he gets baited in to.  The question is will there be a second....or a fumble

I'll take the under. One int, but at least 1-2 others that should have been picked off but were dropped by the defense.

Yeah it’s amazing what a little bit of competent coaching will do.  Watching Scott Frost execute a game plan, especially on offense, with unquestionably inferior talent than UT is sickening.

could we finish worse than 4 and 8?

I dont want to say we have some guaranteed wins but the only ones I could possibly see are :

Tulsa

Tech (maybe)

Kansas

We might be the underdogs in the rest. just wow

 

 

Watching the rerun of Longhorn Weekly before LHN Gameday,   Herman stated he was asked by Fenves about a recommendation for AD and recommended CDC.    Also,  talked to CDC about taking the Texas AD position.    Stated he and CDC have continued close relationship since working together at Rice.    Interesting...

(CDC was interviewed to open Longhorn Weekly)

So basically CDC wouldn't be here without him
And CDC needs to remember that come firing time.

Hermans a dumb ass for saying that in an interview even if true.making it sound like he hired cdc, shittin on fenves also.
He knows hes been shittin the bed pretty much sense he got here right?
Dude acts like his shit dont stink like saban.
Fuckin blind asshole

Reminds me of uncle rico.
Charlie seemed like a cool,genuine dude.
This chode seems like the snake oil salesman on josey wales. And yes im still pissed about last week and last year.

That high powered vaunted Maryland offense is locked in a defensive struggle with Bowling Green, 16-14, in the late third quarter. Hermann is such a dipshit. 

Im not a Tom fan, but come on its Tulsa. go for it and make a statement. Of course Sam goes dumb dumb again

Come on you European cigarettes! I want to see an unbelievable ass whipping!

I’m all aboard this guy needs to get a sock party and fired and ran out of town. This team is so bad 

they should go UP TEMPO every possession 

In the stadium right now. I just, just, what the hell am I seeing. I didn't think it could get worse. Joke's on me.

 

 

What happens when your defense is on the field all game?

Pull the goddamned trigger. Don't wait for the game to be over.

Poor coaching job and it fucking shows.

This is worse than Strong

If we lose to Kansas come talk. But this certainly looks to be the worst team in years

We are struggling with Tulsa, this is not our standard

Tulsa and Maryland are on par with Kansas

I can't believe I was fooled by this guy.

While the inbred farmers were locked in a battle with Clemson, we are in a dogfight with Tulsa, jesus christ, fire this fucktard already, he is clearly incompetent

Herman inherited significantly more talent than strong (see first year drafts). Maybe a scare against Tulsa isn’t the same, but a loss to Tulsa and 2 seasons getting beat by Maryland is easily on par with Kansas.

I'm a rainbows and unicorns kinda guy when it come to the team. Always trying to look at the bright side. But after this debacle I'm done. I don't know what it's going to take but we aren't even close to being back in any way. I remember the years before Mack Brown and I don't ever remember feeling like this.

IF we win this game we may not win another one this season.

Coach Stubborn won't let anyone tell him who should be OC.  Coach Stubborn won't let anyone tell him who should play QB.  Coach Stubborn won't let anyone tell him which RB should get carries.

Coach Stubborn doesn't look like he'll change the rest of this season or next season, so right now there's no reason to give him a 3rd season.  Spare me the BS that we'll never get a coach if we fire him after 2 years.  Won't get a proven top tier coach, but were we going to get one anyway if we wait a year?  There's always hungry, up and coming stars willing to gamble on what should be one of the top 3 jobs in the country.  Give 'em 2 years to show promise, sooner or later one will work out.  And probably faster than these 3-year untouchable windows that just makes the hole deeper.

That said, it is still possible that he can make changes and turn this season around.  Just like peace in the Middle East is still theoretically possible.  But I'll probably not bet money that either will happen this year.

I was still in wait and see mode after Maryland but seeing ZERO adjustments and this poor of a performance after the embarrassment of losing to Maryland again has turned me. Herman and this staff are poor coaches. 

A legit staff gets wins in year 1 and especially year 2. Aggy has about the same if not lesser talent in many ways and Jimbo has them competing. This is what happens when you hand the job to the flavor of the month and dont properly investigate to find the best fit. 

I think I'm done.  I just can't muster the strength anymore.  Im tired of getting excited for a game and then seeing how it plays out and being disappointed - even in the wins.  It's just been too long.  I actually think that I have stuff I'd rather do on Saturdays now. 

I never thought I would feel this way but here I am.

This kind of effort is a joke. He should be fired after the game.
