Herman was 4-0 in Bowls,he'll find work
He wouldn’t be a bad OC for any time. He’s just not elite HC material. No shame in that. Few are.

Wow. Texas just set themselves back even further.

I don’t understand how they wouldn’t go all in for Matt Campbell- but would hire Sark. Campbell is drilling PAC 12 champs Oregon right now.

Mensa boy had to go. But to can him for Sark would only be a downgrade.

Sark has proven at two stops he’s a mediocre head coach. He’s a good co-ordinator. Bad head coach. Not everyone is cut out to be a head coach. Would be a disastrous hire if Texas did that.

I might be tempted to go after Brian Hartline if I was an AD. I know he’ll be able to recruit lights out and I think HC is definitely in his future. Might be a little to early and too big a stage to take a plunge on him- but I’d be tempted. For sure.
I don't love this hire.  Nothing I can do about it though.  Sucking sucks.

His record as head coach isnt that good

He was canned at USC mid season

I think we could have done better then this

Mack Brown is a better choice imo

actually he would

we traded an average HC for a below average HC and paid $15M to do it

What did it take to get Tom Herman out of Austin? A buyout of approximately $15.4 million for him and including the rest of the staff, a total of $24 million. Texas will also have to pay another buyout to get its new coach.

True.  When you go straight to the bottom immediately, you're sure to get your man.
