In regards to Herman? That was the quote.... I said, we shall see. Aren't you the one who ran with Strong is gone if they lose to Tech? I know you said he was gone if they lose to Tech and Baylor.
This is why the new Coordinator needs to be announced as soon as possible after the conclusion of our season. We need the excitement around the new OC to permeate for the last two months of recruiting.
I'm not worried about Shane. He's not going anywhere unless Charlie is gone.
He's been saying it since he took the job. He wanted 2-3 classes to get the kind of core he's looking for. By that logic, this would be his class. I agree in that I don't really see why people are surprised he wants to get one more class in. Three classes has been the narrative all along.
That is a little harsh and not completely true. By some accounts we had Saban with a 10 year 100 million deal. Who knows the true story, but apparently Patterson refused to do it. Im pretty sure 10 million a year would get anyone you wanted. Not saying a coach should make 10 million a year, just saying we paid 1.25 million per win this year. Real value there.
Yes, you have
I think all he has to do to get a 4th year is beat this year's record, even if it is only by one game. The powers that be will see any improvement over this year's record as progress and use that to justify bringing him back for a 4th year. And they will have "excuses" to justify their position.
Don't be so sure... you've said that to me once or twice.
Also, I said with a bowl game, 7-6.
Saban to Texas is and was a fraud that got Saban a raise. The best agent in the business. The folks that attach themselves strictly to BMD's for information are the ones that ran with this. We will never know if it was 10/10 other than word of mouth, but we aren't that desperate either! Why set that precedent?
It is a sad state of affairs for sure. The craziest part is the number of fans that seem ok with it.
