Herman is set to be successful!!

[DFW Hornsfan]

Watching Clemson win tonight it gave me confidence in the future. 

NO!!! We won't win a National Championship next year.

But what if we are 9 and 3 and beat Stanford in the Holiday Bowl?

What if we are 8 and 4 and beat LSU in the Texas Bowl?

What if we are 11 and 1 and lose the first round of the playoffs?

What if we are 6 and 5 lose 4 games by less than 4 points?

Winning breeds success. Herman is impressive in every press conference so far. 

I feel good. 

Herman is set to be successful

I agree. Herman is undefeated in press conferences so far.

Next year we win it all. Cinderella story. Herman coming out at halftime in title game will look like he's climbing to the 18th green at Augusta National.

I so hate to wish my life away, but I cannot wait to see how well the team does next season under Herman.  I have pretty high expectations of at least an 8 win season and a bowl victory and on the high end would be a 10 win season.  I want to see how we replace Foreman and if our defense improves especially in the secondary.

repost -- this will be part of it

i'm hopeful for the future.  everything he's done (and reported) is something that a true leader does.  he's come in and identified different aspects of the program that aren't up to par with what it takes to win championships in this era.  he has a plan and is executing it.

Yeah, I don't care for us being ranked in any kind of Pre-Season Poll. Hell, I don't want to see us ranked until we've played half a season and have proven ourselves. We need to earn it. This team, as talented as it may be, has not earned it.

It would be nice to see "NO" rankings in college football until the halfway point.

Biggest joke in all of college football.

It'd be for the best, but it'd be impossible. There's a demand for polls (this thread being evidence of just how big of a demand), and new polls would rise out of the void.

Herman is set to be successful

You had me anxious to hear HOW he was set up to be successful.

You had me anxious to hear HOW he was set up to be successful.

It's pretty simple.

Winning breeds success.

Herman was top recruiter for Ohio State and ran the offense that won National Championship.

He took that Houston and had very good success.

He is so impressive in every interview with detailed answers of what should work and the discipline he expects.

Texas has athletes on the roster right now.

Herman seems poised to harness that talent and compete right away.

I just don't see bad losses in the future. (Ones where we are just flat or out coached)

I imagine in every game against a ranked opponent we will compete and probably even pull some upsets.

Once that happens the talent gravitates.

If Herman is successful, he will be like Saban and Meyer. Recruits will know that they are not going anywhere and trust them.

Let's be honest. Charlie was always on a bit of a hot seat.

He is set up to succeed

I can't decide what is more useless and inaccurate.

Preseason CFB polls or political polls?

Words cannot describe how awesome this is.
