Inside Texas believes both new coordinators will be in place before the early signing day.
Sounds like CDC has the financial support to write blank checks. Who’s the better fit, Harrell or Brady?
Brady... and not even close. I do not want the air raid offense with Ingram, RoJo, Whittington, Young, and Bijan ALL needing snaps. I would prefer LSU's offense to Leach/Herrell's any day.
Jeff Howe from Horns247 is also hinting that Graham Harrell will be the OC hire.
I just watched some 2018 UNT game clips against SMU & Arkansas on YouTube. UNT ran the ball plenty from 11 personnel sets. So that fits in with what Herman likes to already do.
USC had 4 RB’s each with 50+ carries and each 4.8+yards per carry. Harrell values the run game
An insider poster from the surelyhorns forum just posted this:
A few things:
-If Harrell is the OC, and the rumors are legit but don’t take anything for granted until ink is dry, then Traylor could make a return. Herman would be admitting to a mistake in letting him go in the first place, so I’m iffy. There’s a shot. Traylor is a stud recruiter and ST coach, irrespective of which position role he would wind up with, if he were re-hired.
-For all of the everyone gives Warehime, he’s actually done okay at TE coach and Wiley looks like a stud. He might stay.
-Beck and Meekins will be gone after signing day.
-Ash isn’t the leading candidate.
-Outside of Giles, not sure if anyone is safe on defense if the new DC wants other guys.
-Expect better positional balance in the coaching staff.
-Money and CDC were involved with this. Anyone thinking otherwise is a ing moron. Herman wasn’t ready to make changes.
-Herman is roundly despised by the academic side and the money. Tech win gave him another season. He has been told unequivocally that they should be competing for a national le next year, that he needs to win the ing bowl game, and they better damned sure land a top 10 class this year. If he fails at any of those, his ass is ing gone. Obviously, if he fails at the bowl win and the recruiting class and then goes to the CFP, he’s keeping his job. 10 wins though? Some like that? Nope. Dude is ing despised by too many important people.
-Urban Meyer was not going to be approached, fwiw. The guy they had lined up would have been pretty ing great and it will be interesting to see if he goes anywhere this year or if he’s still available after Herman butt s 2020.
EDIT:
He also added...
I think anyone thinking that coaches won’t take a job because the HC is a dead man walking is just way off base. Coaches are egotists and they’re always going to think they can do better and they will be invincible.
Harrell is a guy that, if he takes the job, will take it because he knows that succeeding at Texas will make his career. He told people that today.
If Harrell or Rhett Lashlee get the OC job, we will have some great ing intel on this board. Probably.

If the above post is accurate, might as well fire him now and bring in the "pretty freaking great" guy. Seems a lot like the start of year 3 under Charlie where everyone was sitting around hoping the coach would fail. All of that makes me wonder if all of the hatred is real, somebody did a really poor job of vetting Herman before he was hired or simply don't really care what the academic or money people feel. Either way, it seems like a recipe destined to fail.
This entire post reeks like the surly poster is egotistical.
Is the below good or bad? Great fckn intel?

How about a great fn team?
Go after fleck, but you would probably be disappointed
