No problem with any reporter helping #MensaTom look even stupider and less in control.

Seeing this for the first time back when, made me think he was just a pussy, not necessarily a bad coach. The reason being I own a business where the use of three different weight sledge hammers is common. They are at 12, 10 (and 8 for the ladies). Sadly, that is a 8 our leader is trying to throw around. And it kicked his ass. Based on this performance alone, I hypothesized that our man had never done an honest days work in his life.
First thing I thought, when he walked in, was "hammer looks a little light". Gotta admit, I had no idea what it weighed, and the result of that first swing recalled a GF who insisted on going bowling with me, could barely hang on to an 8-pounder, then leaned way down on her very first approach and bounced that motherfucker off the floor on the downswing, broke two fingers and sprained the fuck out of her thumb. At least #MensaTom didn't wang himself in the teeth...

If there is in fact an "agreement" then CDC isn't an very good at negotiation.
There's no reason to back himself in a corner like that. If Urban has told him no, then an agreement like that might make some sense.
I believe it may be more of a demand, in terms of a stated expectation, i.e. the CC, and an affirmative reception by #MensaTom. I don't know if the "or else you're gone" is a real, or merely an implied, consequence.
At this point with three games to go, the coach has a possibility of achieving the demand/expectation of winning the XII. On that basis, CDC (perhaps only in his own mind) must wait for things to play out.
Urban seems to be quite patient. I think there have been informal talks and a hire is all but signed, just waiting for #MensaTom to show up unprepared and lose one of the must-wins. I think he is aware of CDC's opinion and that he respects it.
Whether it happens or not is mainly on Tom's shoulders to carry. If he falters, he's out, and Urban is in. We've known Tom to surprise, but if I had to bet, then I would bet the under, performance-wise.

If in fact a deal has been made, who is going to give CDC a hard time if he fires Herman even if the team wins a conference championship? Not me.
No doubt. The problem is whether CDC would fire him after nothing but W's since 0U.
To me - and I think a lot of us, most of us - Beat 0U is an every-season goal. Reverse the current HC's record, and that's acceptable. That should have been the first potentially fatal miss, already.

Agreement with the Pope has been made. CDC is waiting for #MensaTom to lose one of the next three games, and the axe will fall. I prefer for the axe to have fallen already, but it has not, and the best explanation I can come up with is that the alleged agreement is real, and CDC cannot in good conscience swing it unless and until #MensaTom has a chance to reach the goal of CC and a NY6 game win.
I prefer that we get rid of the problem awaiting should we win these last three games and scooch sideways into the CCG, but I think CDC will refrain from swinging the axe so long as the W's flow. The longer this goes on, the dumber we look, notwithstanding the theoretical attaboys from the Wide World o' Sports for having an AD with a strong ethical style.
The unthinkable is the the W's continue through Bowl Season, and we wind up keeping #MensaTom, on the theory that he has finally learned how to win. Unthinkable, but "This is our concern, Dude."

This. Dude is focused on slapdick bullshit instead of winning. Just fucking win Tom. Just fucking win.
You racist piece of shit! Don't you know that #MensaTom has more important things than winning that he must work on with his team? Right now, they need to decide whether to have a whole new Alma Mater, or just change the words and keep the tune.

KState is 12/5, CCG (it could hapen - as of this date) is 12/12 (assumption). NLI signing is 12/16-18. Cutting it close, but I reckon if #MensaTom becomes #JoblessTom before 12/16 there will likely be some meaningful flipping and/or GradXferring and/or PortalingIn.It would be a lovely Xmas - for some of us.

The ultimate "Fuck you" from the Pope to #MensaTom would be to keep (most of) the staff when the turtle waddles away. Can definitely see Ash and (most of) his guys staying. It could happen.

Shit. Another lawyer.
Reminds me of the time I got off the plane at Schiphol. Walked down the roll-up stairs wearing a cowboy hat, carrying a J-200, looking around for my ride. In the group waiting for passengers, an older gentleman called out at the top of his lungs, "Jee-zus Fucking Christ! Another fucking Texan with another fucking gee-tar! Wot I wouldn't fucking give to see a fucking Scotsman with a fucking trombone!" Yep, my ride, who turned out to be a pretty good guy...

Well.....the shine is certainly off both Fleck and Franklin at this point if they were ever seriously in consideration
Franklin was a non-starter always - Vandy not being quite as rapey, but otherwise too Baylorish.
Fleck? The only thing he had going for him was marrying a stripper, plus the fact that "Row the Boat!" is only marginally ahead of "Ride the Pony!" as a team motto. Definitely no good for surliness.

The reason there's no info flow is that the lines are drawn and all we can do now is watch... and wait. It seems that CDC and #MensaTom had words, after last season and before this one started, and CDC asked for and got a guarantee of a XII championship. Failure was either implicit or actually agreed to be end of story for the coach. Various versions of the agreement disagree as to whether it's enough to just get to the CCG. Either way failure is not certain, yet. Urban's people and CDC's people have met and understand that if and when #MensaTom falls short, the axe falls, the feasting begins. We hope it's soon enough that the 2020 recruiting not only recovers, but becomes a fireball - which may include GT's and covid xfers... but #MensaTom is perverse enough to pull it off, and perhaps assholey enought to not only do so, but resign after.
I think the chances are more than 50-50 that we're celebrating the Urban hire before the end of the season, but I'll be a whole lot easier of mind if #MensaTom manages to lose to one of the Korn Kountry Kolleges, soon.

He heard Saban is 23-0 against his former assistants who're now HCs on their own... it's a variation on that riff.
Soon as #MensaTom loses, it'll be CUM all over the situation.

Urban's not just a winner, he's an immediate winner. In his four previous head coaching stints, his first year improved by FIVE wins from the previous coach's record, on average - BG went from 2-9 to 8-3, Utah from 5-6 to 10-2, Fla from 7-5 to 9-3, and tOSU from 6-6 to 12-0.

Who's going to hold for Dicker when he's the kicker?
-
Here's a stupid take for you:
If CDC is a man of his word - and I believe he is - he is honoring the agreement he and #MensaTom were said to have made earlier this year. It was claimed, and I didn't see it debunked, that the HC was given an ultimatum of "win the XII or you're gone." Because that outcome is still available, CDC has not pulled the trigger and fired Tom. I think Urban is aware of the situation and is content to bide his time. If and when we lose a game, things will resolve quickly. Urban is not worried about recruiting, one way or the other.
I agree wholeheartedly with those who believe we've seen enough from #MensaTom to be quite certain he ain't the guy, but if that agreement is real, it answers the questions about wtf is going on.

Traylor has UTSA looking very good. It's a shame that Harris has been hurt, but the team still playing well, across the board. What's really a shame is that #MensaTom didn't keep Traylor at Texas when he had the chance.
-
The decision to tie in regulation was already made before we scored. Miz Long will verify I was screaming for 2, then and in OT. Win or lose, right here, right now. ST has been shit, other than Dicker, so if nothing else, run the fake kick play - I'll bet Dicker can catch a wide-open toss and score.

Seriously. A 6 page thread because a teenager changed some pictures on social media?
Naahhh - because he didn't catch a (probable) TD pass that hit him right in the hands, in stride. Probable, because apparently he's lost his sprinter's speed - although he may still be faster than Ingram...
