If this happens these freaking 11am games stop.

Have there been rumors of him being dissatisfied?

He wasn’t suited out for them last night, and Jimbo just said he was “unavailable.”

Herman is gone--no way he can come back from all of this speculation after another loss and expect to recruit, while major team players are debating bailing on the season.  He's DMW and every Texas high school coach, trainer and athlete knows it.

You provide zero to any of this. You claim to have sources, yet all you say is that Meyer will not be here. If you really had sources you’d provide more. Typical troll

No shit.  I’m hoping there’s been more of these than normal this year due to lack of other games being played in other conferences.   The Horns have almost always sucked at these early games no matter the coach.

Saw someone on one of the other sites say that Demas watched the game from the stands. He’s only participated in two games this season. I guarantee he didn’t expect to RS this year.

1) Anyone that doesn’t have futureman on ignore is missing out. I’ve never once missed that idiot’s voluminous insipidity.  

2) Once they realized they weren’t ready to fire Herman after the OU loss due to his camp’s insistence about still making the CCG, nothing could or would ever be firm or meaningful until that possibility was ruled out. 

3) Well, today happened. Now we’re going to find out what is real and what is bullshit. The mere buzz that Meyer’s camp is posturing about not returning to coaching should be an obvious sign that things are getting real. It’s not going to be cheap, so we’ll see if they have the stomach. I wouldn’t read too much into anything from anywhere until public statements are made by parties involved. 

4) I’ve always maintained that the odds of getting Meyer were low. I still see it that way. Texas will try its best to fuck this up and we probably will. 

The one really good source I have on this is pretty adamant that pretty much nothing is going to happen with Urban. Of course he’s much more tied in to the basketball program, so maybe he just means that he’s not taking Shaka’s job.

a source who i trust says that we have already started the full court press on Urban, and that the ball is 100% in his court. (forgive the tired basketball cliches, and fuck Shaka)

His early offenses were a little too gimmicky for my taste. But when Florida came out 13-1 in '06, I think it really came into its own, schematically and talent-wise. The whole offense has a clear, crisp direction, and a new sheen of consummate option QB play that really gives his offense a big boost. He's been compared to Nick Saban, but I think Urban has a sense of humor.

In '12, Urban joined Ohio State, his most accomplished coaching. I think his undisputed masterpiece is the 2012 season. A season so good, most people probably don't notice they went undefeated. But they should, because it's not just about going undefeated without a title due to bullshit NCAA sanctions. It's also a personal statement about Meyer himself. Hey, @futureman!

Waiting for Jimbo to call for him to suit up?  They do love their 12th Man schtick.

You need to stop listening to realgreggym. Good job calling his bullshit on Baker before the news broke.

Jimbo is guaranteed to get a big raise and an extension after this season. If we raise the pay scale bar, Jimbo will be getting a massive raise.  

Good for him. A lot of those guys never make it out of the tree where they make the cookies.

He's just trying to be a tight ass every opportunity he gets because he knows he won't have one soon.

It’s going to be an interesting press conference today.

Burton-Monday

Eric will be posting an accumulation of news and notes in the The Scoop later this morning that I feel closely monitors the pulse of the coaching situation, so I'm going to use this column as an opportunity to go in a slightly different direction.

**

The attitude of those in charge at Texas has never - and I mean never - been more together in their drive to bring home a single coach. Ever.

This is different than Texas' courtship of Nick Saban, where some big money donors led the process without the explicit clearance and understanding of all key members of the athletic department and administration.

It's also clearly at odds with the bizarre outsourcing selection of Charlie Strong that only Steve Patterson could oversee, or the whirlwind, shotgun marriage that led the Horns to Tom Herman, a hand forced somewhat by the timing of another suitor (LSU).

Heck, it's even vastly different than when the Horns landed Mack Brown.

After all, some key members of the Texas admin and athletic director favored Northwestern coach Gary Barnett rather than Brown, athletic director Deloss Dodds even had a handshake deal in place with Barnett and a plane ready to bring him to Austin. Barnett never got on that plane.

Instead, Texas legend Darrell Royal became the kingmaker whose decision everyone coalesced behind; Royal had met with Brown in Atlanta, knew Brown from years before, and Brown was christened the new Texas coach. That was way back in the winter of 1997.

This time, there is no kingmaker of Texas athletics. No single person has the sway of Royal, nor should they.

Yet despite Royal's absence in this search, the powers that be are channeling his ideology. They are remembering what he said, what he stood for, and putting it into practice.

Coach Royal, when asked why he wanted Mack Brown as coach, said he felt like Brown was the one who could put all the BBs back in the box at Texas.

That is exact same reason why those who donate heavily to the university and those who run the university are in utter agreement. They see Urban Meyer as the person to do just that. Meyer is the one they are convinced can put all the BBs back in the box and harness the power and potential of Texas football.

Texas wants three-time national champion Meyer as the next Longhorn coach. And Meyer will be forced to say no. He will be forced to forego a potential financial package for himself and his assistants that would make Nick Saban blush.

No matter the outcome, you can't blame Texas for trying, or the reasoning behind it.

what about the chick with the boots

Meyer's health problem with that cyst is real. Or at least it was 3 years ago. He had surgery for it.

His offenses at Ohio State were maddening. Good because of talent and execution. But not great because his play calling lacked alot.

If you hire him, keep an eye on our S&C coach Mickey Mariotti and Head of Ops Mark Pantoni. He brought them to Columbus from Florida, and they're both very good at their job.

Don't let him bring Zach Smith. Smith is an excellent position coach, but he's not worth the drama.

While this is a lot of money, it isn’t when you compare it to things like the Astros giving Carlos Lee $100m

 

Or when you compare it to the State just handing over $226M+ to COTA for simply existing. So far.

I can guarantee you, Zach Smith will not be employed by the university of Texas...no

I get what you are saying, and I don't think UM would touch that with a ten foot pole, anyway..

But with everything that is going on, if UM wanted to bring that fucking loser with him, do you really think that would be the sticking point to the hire? Not a fucking chance.

If Zach Smith is out, then I’m out.

We can call futureman CUM after he officially signs.  A passing of the torch, if you will.  

I prefer fisterman myself

Chip Brown's shit about our administration being nervous about having to shuck and jive for the Legislature exposes how little he understands about college athletics and how it is funded.
