The problem is we just aren't that good.
In CTH 4th year. There should already be a culture of a disciplined football team where everyone is held accountable. Instead of " we gave to do better" etc.
what is CTH?
Coach Tom Herman
Can you just drop the C make it TH.
ah, that would be much easier to type - wouldnt it? Why would someone add a le to initials? this looks like an aggy-sec type thing
Does this work for other coaches and athletic directors? ACDC?
We have played great in last 3 bowl games...we are terribly inconsistent. And we are not good enough to overcome multiple bad calls. Especially when they are playing a well coached team.
I'm not defending anything. I'm just asking why the horns don't run the ball more with those running backs
Well yeah, when a good team underperforms, they end up in a lesser bowl where they [usually] win.
I think UTHCTH would be much simpler, imo
We beat Georgia in sugar bowl 2 years ago. Completely destroyed Utah last year
Stick a fork in Tommie boy, he is done at Texas, Boosters are now talking about who is up next. Sounds like Urban is the man to beat. I can honestly see him keeping both coordinators and a select few assistants like JV.
Lets face it, Tom was not ready for this job.
I'm telling you, he'd be great for UTSA.
5* cb domani jackson will visit texas this week & has set a commitment date of oct 24
Most missed my point which was coach and Tom Herman do not go together.
I am so gone if its Urban fckn Meyer.
Disgusts me to even entertain the thought.
bye you will be back when he turns texas around
I'm not a fan of Urban Meyer as a man, but he is a winner and we really need a winner right now. Lord knows Herman isn't the answer.
Herman might be the answer in about 10 years but as of today he just isn't ready to be a coach at a University like Texas.
I feel the same way about Meyer and Herman. And, the main reason is I'm not sure CDC knows how to evaluate young coaching talent -- that usually takes an experienced coach to see traits that non-coaches cant see. It took Darrell Royal to force Deloss to hire Mack Brown. It took DX Bible to hire Darrell Royal from 5-5 Washington team. Where is that mentor to CDC to hire the next head coach? in north carolina? So the quick fix is to hire an undesirable Urban Meyer

Urban has been pe ioning for the job. Word is that he attempted to open channels alittle while back. Plus there was his somewhat rousing compliment of the program on live TV in the pregame. He did this once before 10 years ago going out of his way to publicly praise Texas football.
On top of that, I have no doubt he would love to take Herman's players and do what Herman could not do with them, win the conference with them and make the playoffs (and maybe a NC). And he might be able to do all that.
But it's unclear if someone with Urban's reputation would ever be considered. I kind of doubt it.
I think one of the more interesting questions we have to wait to see is whether CDC has full control here, or whether the academic side will interfere again.

I didn't attend the University of Texas so I really don't have a right to attack the academic side, but I'm going to. I am very much at odds with the academic side of UT and most every university right now. Not because I am a football fan, but because they are socialist hypocrites when it comes to football. Lets face it, Universities have football because it is advertisement to entice kids to attend the University. This is why places like UTSA and Texas State have put so much money into their football programs. Some programs like Texas are actually making money and give back to the University, but it seems that the University isn't willing to give the football program the ability to win games.
I'm not asking for them to go full on SMU or renegade, and I appreciate there is a commitment to honesty, but lets face it, in today's day and age, you either want to win or you want to play fair. You can't have it both ways, there is a gift horse in front of us, and we seem to keep looking it in the mouth.
I had one goal for tom this year, prove you can win a conference, and I guess that is still on the table, but I just don't see it happening. His cir stances will never be better than they are right now. And he still can't beat a very pedestrian TCU team. This is the most talented team Texas has fielded since 2009 and we can't seem to stop anyone and we are still extremely undisciplined. What I don't see is attention to detail, if I did, then I wouldn't see DBs getting toasted, and running backs fumbling at the 1 yard line. This is on Tom Herman.
Look I like a number of coaches out there, and I'm sure any number of them can come in and do a good job, but more than anything, Texas needs a winner and name recognition, and Urban brings that. Kids know Urban will get them winning, and get them to the league. Tom's time is up. To be honest, there are only a few assistants I might let go, in fact, I think Texas has the assistants to get the job done outside of Hand. What they need is a leader to set the tone and Tom isn't that guy.
Maybe in about 5 to 10 years Tom will be that guy, but today he isn't. Right now he is in over his head.
I don't think UT is in any position financially to pay Herman's buyout. They just had to cut 28 million in costs which will basically be out of the 2021 budget, and his buyout is 20 million?
