  1. Hey we are just trying to brace for impact here. This ain't our first rodeo where failing miserably was not only on the table but the option chosen.
  2. Agree. If we fire Herman and don't make Urban tell us no at least 100 times before moving on to plan B we have failed, but assuming plan B is our play we have to hire someone. The powers that be equating Strong and Herman = every other G5 coach will likely lead us to making another poor hire.
  3. He's not a proven p5 guy though. We also don't have the kind of money our fanbase thinks either. Plenty of other programs in our league money wise.
  4. LSU, Clemson, and OU didn't hire a proven P5 coach. Day technically wasn't either but taking over for Urban and not having to rebuild anything is a completely different animal. If a proven guy is willing to change jobs sure go there first, but I don't think that's reality. Just because some internet poll still rates us as the #1 job in the country doesn't mean that those guys are leaving their current situations to rebuild. What's the definition of proven?
  5. Harsin has at least been a HC beyond the initial QB he inherited. I'm not saying Harsin is the guy but outside of Urban we will fuck it up if must be a P5 coach is one of the restraints.
  6. I love the Samsung remote, but I am changing batteries on that thing once a month. Is that a thing with yours, or did I just get a bad batch?
  7. Zeke was picked to win for Romo's last couple of years. It was nothing but a short term decision, and you could argue that it worked as Mackey points out. They didn't have Romo but they got great play from rookie Dak and were one of the best teams that year. Now extending him was absolutely retarded. In hindsight, 4 years later, all short term decisions are going to look terrible compared to their long term counterparts.
  8. No it's not possible. "We're Texas" is a delusion in our minds, reality is a whole other thing.
  9. The newer pro series Blackstones come with a integrated lid. You probably still need a cover if in direct whether, but mine is just under a covered patio and it does fine with just the hood and no cover.
  10. I guess I never reconciled this but when Troy blew up on Gordo a few years back during his weekly call in, I just assumed he was a no nonsense guy, but then Troy got Joe Buck on board by how funny the station was. Does Troy think that George/Junior are funny sans Gordo?
  11. Charlie was going to get paid the same amount regardless. His USF contract would just offset our buyout obligation. I would guess it was more a move on USF's part than his.
  12. I thought USF just backloaded his contract so we were on the hook for the first couple of years. I don't really think that's screwing us over. I imagine any lower tier school would do the same. Or maybe I am completely off base.
  13. Obviously the bit has jumped the shark when they are having to go tier 3 employees to fill air time.
  14. Correct. Twitter is global. Our little school is blowing up fellas.
  15. If you are just streaming Netflix all will have a good integrated app for that. If you are streaming lots of stuff from different services just go for cheapest with best picture and get a device.
  16. A day at a waterpark has to be one of the lower rungs of hell. Anything open to the public is going to pack that thing to capacity, at least the housing development lagoons can somewhat control access, but I guess it doesn't matter if you plan on 10k home community.
  17. My point wasn't that he sucks so bad he can't get a HC job, it was that covid is going to limit the firings and therefore openings.
  18. I would bet Herman goes OC, or maybe takes some time off. Maybe something opens up in the G5 level, but there won't be much turnover in the lower levels because of covid. It will be slim pickings if he wants to be a HC.
  19. It probably doesn’t help when trying to hire other top tier coaches.
  20. Does anyone have the decoder ring for this? Translation: I’m trying too hard.
  21. As long as you stay in that room.
