    Someone needs to ask him ”ed orgeron probably can’t even spell his name but changed OC after having a better season than you, do you feel like the smartest man in the room still?”

  • You know, sometimes you just look at Charlie Strong and you realize that you're no different or better than him.

Asked about his comments to the Texas fans:

The sky is not falling. I hope they see what I see, the hope in this team. We’re gonna be fine once we fix things. We expect to win every game. We failed to meet expectations for one game. It’s not Armageddon.

Ingram averaging 6ypc and instead of running him for the 2pc you do that awful TE toss back play again even though you didn't practice it and the ball was on the wrong hash. 

Ok Mensa

Herman has taken 0 accountability thus far if you’re keeping track.

He sounds lost. He has no idea what to do about this situation

#211

He’s not CDC’s man. Nothing Herman is saying here can help give him faith he can turn this shit around. 

This is bordering bizarre - strange explanations, making no sense, making excuses, shifting goalposts. 

#213

Someone send Tom the video of Augie taking responsibility for that performance and loss. "I totally fucking failed you." That one. 'Cause that's all he should be saying and doing.

Thus, six losses last year, including in particular Maryland and Tech, met expectations.  Therefore, only this loss to Maryland failed to meet expectations.

Abracadabra.

matt canada's presser was awkward as fuck,  but he won.   this shit is just wtf mode  and our reporters are such pussies lobbing this soft ass shit.  

#218

So many long winded answers. The people I know that do that are called con men that try to make them sound like they know what they are doing so they talk you into the ground.

"Unique challenges" with the fly sweep???  Doesn't EVERY team in the country have that play in the playbook?  C'mon man.

I will say, the timing on Maryland’s sweeps was excellent.

"I pushed a cardboard toilet paper tube up his rectum and slipped Ragout, our gerbil, in," he explained. "As usual, Kiki shouted out 'Armageddon,' my cue that he'd had reached nirvana, so to speak. I tried to retrieve Raggot but he simply would not come out, so I peered into the tube and struck a match, thinking the light might attract him."

#225
Good grief, take the delay and kick a PAT.  Please tell me you didn't run a play you haven't practiced.  That's Charlie Strong level dipshittery

 

Like Potato dipshittery, right?

 

Potato Tom.

Why do coaches do this bullshit. All we want to hear is "I take full responsibility for this loss. The level of effort and effectiveness shown on Saturday is unacceptable at this university. As long as I'm the head coach for this team nobody will beat us in heart or effort ever again."

#228

These questions have to be getting pre approved before they ask. No questions about beck when that was literally all that was being posted Saturday on social media yet it’s not asked? 

#229

Softball questions.

Not one question about playcalling. Nothing about Beck. Nothing about Utilizing Sam more in the run game.

But plenty of laughter at Herman’s jokes and plenty of “thank yous” when he was done.

Pathetic. 

#230

I didn't think it was possible, but I actually feel much worse after watching that.  I was expecting Mack-like platitudes.  But that PC was very revealing:

1) Mensa has no fucking idea what to do, despite his claim that the staff gets paid to figure out the "whys"

2) He doesn't think they (the coaches) have done anything wrong.  He's going down with the ship with Sam and Beck in tow and fuck everyone else.  

He'll be gone in about 15 months.

Correction to what I posted earlier regarding what Herman said about his decision to go away from Ingram in the second half: he did not say he went with Porter he said he went with a 5th year senior with a lot of experience and he did say the name Tre. I missed it as I was typing and thought he was talking about Porter. Just had to rewind and watch again. My bad.

#233

Even the question about Ingram was phrased like “hey Tom, do you see Ingram getting more PT in the future after he’s earned your trust? Thanks!”.

And that might be 15 months too long.

Now you understand why I want Lee Corso!

He would have and excuse cause he is senile!

He would be funny!

He would put a funny hat on his head at the end and in the fumbling mascot thing he would...

Shoot Fucking Chip Brown in the ass!

Lee Corso!  It would not be a bigger clown show!

re: no one asked about Beck/playcalling....

I think the 4th or 5th question was about the "sudden shift midway through the 2nd quarter going tempo" which i believe was intended by the questioner to allude to Tom calling the plays, and thermensa answered "we got on the headset and blah blah blah" which he (Herman) had in the can as his non-denial denial of Beck's incompetence.

then the follow-up questioner slipped in "when you started calling plays in the 2nd quarter" as bait, thermensa did not fall for it.

he is going to inflict pain and suffering on millions in order to protect his incompetent hire.

#240

The closest they came to Beck was "coach, something had to have changed in the second quarter, what was it?"

 

Pussies.

Yeah you gotta love the questions where the reporter gives him an out before he’s even done asking. 

#243

No amount of words will ever make sense of a whole half of Porter over Ingram. It was inexplicable, but absolutely par-for-the-course with Herman’s abject stubbornness. 

#244
Tentativeness goes away with confidence. Confidence comes from winning. Winning comes from good coaching.

I’ve heard this before.

“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.”
#245

Have to agree - Tulsa is certainly nowhere to close to being a sure thing.  If I were a betting man, I’d take Tulsa and the points - regardless

At least Gary Johnson might read “Of Mice and Men” - personally, I’d rather go study OU film....

Another attempt to try and let everyone know how smart of a coach Tim Herman is. What a educational and life teaching moment! Cue the music!
