Texas made the way-too-early top 20

I want to be somewhat critical of Herman mostly because:

a) He doesn't seem fully confident and cock-sure at pressers.
b) I didn't like his titty dance mocking a student athlete.
c) I wish he would just go clean shaven, his facial hair doesn't fill out

But nonetheless, he does impress me on occasion, and I like this move.  I don't really have any football results to bag on Herman yet, because I'll give him a first season free pass.

I'll be honest with you - I didn't like Strong from his introductory presser.  (see (a) above - I like a CEO appearance)  He seemed like a deer caught in headlights, and his circular babbling didn't help matters.  But soon thereafter, Strong gave me football reasons to justify my instinct.

You’re kind of a cranky, opinionated  old church lady sometimes.

Sometimes Herman rubs me the wrong way but I hold out hope for him.

I liked A lot about Strong’s approach and demeanor but he never seemed able to attend to every detail all at once.  Something always bit him in the ass.

I thought Brown was his own worst enemy.  He did so many things right, then overthought too many things too.

Mackovic didn’t like defense.  That’s what I had against him.

McWilliams should’ve been perfect but he must’ve done something to piss off the ECFGs.

Akers was Tom Osborne on a shorter leash.

DKR was a genius but in his later years I think he got to the point where he didn’t even like football.

You're not going to get a businessman approach from Tom Herman. He interprets everything analytically.

In a press conference, he's going to try and answer the question as best he can. Unfortunately, 90% of questions asked at press conferences are prosaic or non-interrogative. When he gets those, he has a look on his face like he's struggling to to be rude to the questioner, but there's no non-insulting way to answer.

Good point, Doppel.
