  1. Herm is doing some work out in the desert.
  2. It's why I think the criticism against him has been overblown, especially when we've had Orlando fuck around with alignments/players. We talk about needing coaches that can coach players, and Giles has been fantastic on two occasions doing exactly that. His recruiting this year, even if it being helped by others, indicates that he isn't the liability that some people make him out to be. I really, really hope the Giles + Okam pairing actually happens as that would be a great combination of coaching and recruiting at a key position.
  3. So did i. And you've got that right. Same for Pueblo, but Runyon Field was fun. I know this is slightly heretical, but I kind of like Pueblo (and Greeley) despite them being shit on by most of the rest of Colorado. Pueblo has an actual vibrant Hispanic community that Denver isolates as well as easy access to the Sangre de Cristos / easier access to the San Juans, and Greeley has the best brewery in Colorado. Anyways, went back to the in-law's farm in Central Texas after living in downtown Denver. It's very crazy the difference in life and how things out in the country definitely move much slower. Quite the contrast.
  4. Rivera seems like he’s going to the Giants. Knows Gettleman and is the right type of coach they are looking for.
  5. I think most of the advanced stats have Clemson over LSU. Will be interesting to see how they all readjust before the game.
  6. It’ll be fascinating to see how LSU is next year when they don’t have a QB who can throw into those ridiculously tight windows. What a pass.
  7. What a dirty and idiotic hit. Going to get ejected all for a play where you blew your containment.
  8. C.R.E.A.M.
  9. Good thing we have a coaching staff that knows how to develop talent! Wait...
  10. Because we never act like we should and just hire the best people. The conversation to get Herman should have started with who he wanted on his staff, and when he mentioned that he would be bringing the gang from UofH instead of upgrading, we should have stopped. We should have realized that he was in over his head when he demoted Beck and then forgot to actually hire someone else. We should have realized that when we left Warehime on staff when he was an abomination. We need to have a coach that is willing to put his ego aside and find the best candidates for whatever system he wants to run and not his fucking cronies or people he went to a strip club together a decade ago. Sadly, we'll have a decent season next year without a conference championship and be stuck with Herman for another year when it all goes south post-Sam and with diminishing recruiting that puts whoever we hire next into a shit situation. TLDR: We don't have the balls to actually make the decisions that matter until it is too late, and then we fuck it up because we are desperate.
  11. If we hire Lashlee or the KSU OC, we might as well start looking at who will be on the 2021 coaching staff.
  12. Just as a quick counter point, Helton is also a former OC turned HC. Do agree that Herman seems less willing to change it than Helton though.
  13. Giants are god awful. That second half was atrocious on their end. I’d be surprised if Shurmur gets another year.
  14. We are going to face him next year, it’s only a question of if it’s in Baton Rouge or the Cotton Bowl.
  15. It's going to be a hell of a game. It'll be interesting to see how Riley does a year after getting blown out by them. On a different note, I think I'm going to go and see the top division in Colorado's state championship game this weekend. Will be fun to compare to what I remember from playing/watching in Texas.
  16. Yup. Tech isn't a good team, but switching to 4 down and allowing them to rush was kind of a glimpse of the future. Will be nice not to see Ossai dropping back to cover nearly as frequently.
  17. I know time heals all wounds, but Morris and Odom would be pretty surprising based on Herman's history with them/their former jobs.
  18. Mehringer's reputation has to be completely fucked at this point. Couldn't happen to a bigger asshole, however
  19. "Come on Herman, let's get out of here"
  20. And USC is about to be back until Meyer has another "heart condition."
  21. If that story is true, how the hell do you not fire that coach immediately? Herman seems like he's in way over his head as he preaches accountability for the players, but does absolutely jackshit to coaches that are clearly subpar.
  22. I hate to break it to you, but Tennessee still sucks. Their most impressive win came against UAB which is somewhat negated by the GSU debacle. Their SEC wins came against opponents that were a combined 13-27 in conference. Without facing an unbelievably soft SEC schedule and having 0 OOC P5 teams, there is no way this team would have a winning record.
  23. OU just owns OSU. It's why OSU fans celebrate beating Texas as they know it's a rarity that they beat their main rivals.
  24. Based on how people are reacting, Orlando’s ass is coming back for Herman’s last hurrah. Hopefully I’m wrong though. His scheme is such complete shit that teaches players nothing.
  25. Giles is not a DT coach at all. He’s at his best coaching the DE
