    Don’t know. Money wasn’t the issue. The $20million buyout was lined up happily and in unison for once. This dude has one year to post a return to dominance for Texas. 

    And he will spend it resenting and undermining his new staff. So we are just wasting the 2020 season. 

  2. If everyone hates herman and he had to be forced into changes, he should have been fired. 
    beating tech should never be a valid reason to keep your job. 
     

    we were (still are I guess) one more top class away from having the elite talent all over the field again, I guess they didn’t want to jeopardize that with a transition class this year. 
     

    I hope they are already making a list of his replacement.

  3. This seems like maybe the best thread for this question:

    for posting a new job as the state requires even for football coaches, is firing one position coach sufficient to screen all candidates such that we could theoretically interview for all position coaches and then fire the rest only after identifying a suitable replacement?

  4. If my choices for wr coaches are beck or samples, I choose samples.  Another black dude on the coaching staff, young up and coming coach at a primarily recruiting coach, great contacts in dfw. 
    vs older white dude demoted with Arizona contacts. 
    I want the guy going up the ladder, not down it.

    He’s being a bit extreme, no doubt, but overall I’m leaning much more the way of @Rockethorn1978‘s take on things here.  I’ll reserve the excitement until I see how this whole thing really unfolds.  And he’s right, typically this level of staff gutting is just delaying the inevitable.

    He hired a bad staff. We complained about it 3 years ago,  we bitched when he kept them in place up to now. 
    I’ll hold out hope that herman has learned that he is fallible and he can’t just use friends and yes men to get it done. 
    I’ll have that hope because the alternative is that we’re still years away from truly competing and I don’t want to embrace that reality until I have to. Which might be as soon as the new hires are announced.

    I was told next year aggie was playing for a championship.  Is this their tuneup?  Looks like aggie may run out of time this game too. but LSU is sitting Joe for the entire 4th quarter so there's a chance.

    You don’t understand. No burrow, no tua, no Georgia, no Clemson.
