I'm not sure that's him. Side burns don't check out. 

Has anyone ever seen Urban Meyer and Urban Meyer in the same room together? I didn't think so.

That's definitely Meyer in HFD's photo. Look at the video posted a little earlier, and stop it 6 seconds in. Profile's the same. Also has a big ass ring on the right hand in both. Who knows when or where that photo is actually from. If you open it in a new tab, it comes up with a twitter icon, but I can't find it in a photo search. It's recent though (masks).

In other words ... I have no idea wtf...

@hornfromdallas has been nails with recruitments, from the misses by the staff to the players who actually committed.. He was even right with the grad transfers this summer.  

Yeah, then we found out he's the only person dumb enough to get booted from the recruit group chat after being identified by posts on an anonymous message board.

I always thought Mandel wasn't an out-of-touch moron but some of those lines have me questioning that. Also, why is he answering from the mailbag regarding Texas from someone in Arlington, Virginia? 

 

Because Texas takes people from, and sends them off to, places all over the world. That's what being an internationally recognized top tier University means. I've seen Longhorn gear on people as far as Qingdao, China.

Ya dumb fuck.

Anyway, depressing read. Fire Herman. Whatever it takes. Just get rid of him.

Why are some of you getting so worked up over hornfromdallas? Our team is absolute trash - can't block, can't tackle, can't run the the football, and recruiting is in massive decline. Rumor mongering about the next coach is pretty much the only thing interesting left. 

Exactly, everything sucks. Carl has been the most entertaining part of 2020.

I hate to be negative but if he is meeting UT BMDs in such a public place I would think he might be using Texas as leverage.  Was his wife seen house shopping in Austin?

Well let’s say it was in California, at a restaurant. No one would know and Texas BMD’s there anyway.  So it would just appear as a normal dinner.

Yep. Plus it’s not like they are discussing the finer details.  That’s what agents are for.   The BMD if just letting him on all the side business doors that will open for him.

Which ones?  Did he call their commit date?  If you subscribe to IT/OB or any of the other sites you can kind of get an estimate.  Admittedly I don't follow him or anything but even I could've predicted the timing of some of the commits.  

 

But the "wow you won't believe what I heard" stuff is annoying

You didn't know those three were heading to Bama?  You're saying he nailed the exact date or "hey they're gonna commit soon."  I think most of us knew for a long as time all three were Bama bound.  I'll review the thread though.

Who gives a shit what he called, the very fact he posted something like "I got information that i was just going drib drab out to you over some undefined period of time" makes him a douchebag.  Nobody is paying for this shit, so fuck off with the "look at me shit."

That's how he got kicked out of the GC in the first place.. he revealed more news.. and it turned out they made that up to find out who the one was leaking it on surly.  Look man, if you get frustrated with it, just hit ignore.

So maybe don't say anything at all. And I ignore nobody.  Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled idiots yearning to breathe free.

Texas Tribune has the executed version of his original employment contract.  I tried but couldn't find a copy of the extension, but the original contract language should still be helpful.  https://static.texastribune.org/media/files/6848d600da55db1efc9d299a0d4f9d76/Herman_contract.pdf

 

C. Specific Duties and Responsibilities. In addition to the general duties and responsibilities set out above, the duties and responsibilities assigned to Coach in connection with the Program are set forth below. Coach’s job duties and responsibilities may be reviewed and revised from time to time by the Men’s Athletics Director, provided such duties are reasonable and consistent with duties typical of an intercollegiate head football coach who coaches at an NCAA Division I program. The list of specific duties and responsibilities supplements, and is not exclusive of, other general duties and responsibilities provided for elsewhere in this Agreement. The specific responsibilities of the position include, but are not limited to, the following:

  Reveal hidden contents

(1) Coach will be responsible for customary coaching decisions including, without limitation, the systems and strategies used on the field (both in practice and actual game play), conduct of practice and training, selection of team members, position, assignment of players, and all other matters relating to the preparation, practice for, and playing of games.

(2) Coach will comply with the academic policies established by the University, the Big 12, and the NCAA.

(3) Coach will ensure that he and his staff and assistant coaches recruit student-athletes who are likely to meet the University and NCAA’s academic requirements.

(4) Coach will work to integrate the student-athletes and team into the whole spectrum of academic life so as to complement the University and its mission.

(5) Coach will oversee all aspects of prospective student-athlete recruiting, including recruiting contacts, evaluations, official and unofficial visits, telephone calls and other communications, and any travel-related activities of prospective student athletes and the Program’s coaching staff.

(6) Coach agrees to cooperate in the scheduling of games for the Program and agrees that the authority for and final decisions on such scheduling are with the Men’s Athletics Director, in consideration of the overall needs of University Athletics.

(7) Coach shall maintain and enforce conduct (both on and off the field), and disciplinary rules and sanctions, fairly and uniformly for all student-athletes in the Program so as to ensure academic and moral integrity while encouraging excellence.

(8) Coach shall adhere to the University’s Athletics department policies and procedures.

(9) Coach has authority and responsibility to make decisions as to the hiring, continued employment, job titles, compensation, and discharge of assistant coaches and all other personnel employed exclusively for the Program.

In accordance with the terms of such agreements, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Professional Services and License Agreement between University and LLC, LLC will cause Coach to participate in promotional activities and will sublicense exclusively the use of Coach’s name, image, and likeness for commercial exploitation by University to endorse those Products that are provided for use in the Program.

Worst case scenario.  

7-3 finish.  No B12 championship game.  Back into a good bowl and beat some overrated top 10 pac12 or ACC team.  Finish at no 10 in the final polls.  Close on a top 15 recruiting class.  Keep Tom Herman.   

Mediocrity cycle continues with no changes.

Thanks. Fucking sucks. You know you hear about these shitty narcissistic moms, the ones who need to see your manager, the ones who don't understand football... she was like, the exact opposite of that. I could throw snake eyes at the craps table every fucking time and I'd still be the luckiest motherfucker on the planet. 

Still not OK with it.
