Sumlin's probably in the hot seat but I think if he can win against 1-2 of Ole Miss, Alabama, and LSU he should be ok.

Like being a 9-win team is fine, it's just being a 9 win team and also winning against good opponents.

the LSU conundrum

hell the problem isn't even the fact that LSU's offense was bread and butter I-formation poo poo. the problem is they were doing it badly. its kind of hard to get a running game going when everyone knows your QBs cant reliably hit a specific side of the field, let alone a receiver in stride.

Watch Charlie Strong win like 7-8 games and come within a hair of a co-championship in a terrible B12, followed by a booster uprising that causes him to get fired after a lot of infighting, leading to an epic PR disaster with Texas getting taken to task for being racist and mistreating Strong and having a totally dysfunctional political culture around the program, which in turn causes Herman to decide he doesn't want to step into the middle of that. Followed by a shitshow of a coaching search led by an embattled placeholder AD, culminating in the hire of Lane Kiffin for $10m a year after he initially turns us down.

UH needs to get Herman a new contract, like tonight. The new buyout needs to be whatever the principal is on TDECU Stadium, plus the deed to 300 or so acres in south Houston.

Doing some reading around, it looks like rumors are that Baylor is looking at both Herman and Chad Morris?

As big a fan as I am of Chad Morris, does he really have the stock for a job that big yet? I could see him going to Houston after Herman goes to UT/LSU... But I dunno about Baylor.

You're giving Baylor way too much credit

So would I. I wanted Herman, but if he truly wanted to go to Texas, there's not much LSU could do. I'm going to hope like hell that O gets a great OC and keeps Aranda.

It does feel like LSU had their thumb up their rear end regarding this whole coaching change. I get why they did it, but I still have a feeling we will regret firing Miles. I miss my Miles avatar, but I probably need an Ovatar now.

The last year of this makes Texas seem well run by comparison. Les was a dead man walking and it seems like their entire plan was pulling Jimbo away from FSU.

Yeah recruiting isnt some regional thing anymore. Literally any HS kid trucking a bunch of people ends up on YouTube and is being seen by some coach 5 states away in 2 hours. Granted there were other factors that Schnellenberger capitalised on to build Miami but expecting some guy to just lock down a recruiting area any longer is not gonna happen.
