that's a shitty chain of events. 18-22 year olds don't always deal with adversity very well.
Like LSU firing their head coach that was on the job when everyone of them signed with the team? LSU firing the offensive coordinator who had been with the team since 2013?
Who's fault is it that Houston isn't going to the playoffs?
Did it really make that big of a difference to the players that they didn't make it into the B12? They weren't in the B12 last year either.
I can see how a rumor of a coach(who didn't even sign most of them) leaving could be a lot worse than the HC and OC of a team being fired four games into the season. Poor, poor Houston, having to deal with those bad rumors.

O is your guy and I'm not going to bother arguing with you anymore, you've done some serious mental gymnastics to get to your conclusions but there is no convincing you otherwise.

who is your guy?
Posted on 11/15/16 at 11:16 am to BilJ
Hiring O will be an emotional decision that defies logic kinda like Mike Archer was who went from 10-1 for his 1st season in 87, 1988- 8-4 won the SEC lost to Syracuse in what is the Outback bowl Today, 1989- 4-7, and in 1990 5-6 his final season. Relatively speaking, the O hire would be just as bad or worse.

Transitive property in college football is so stupid. You're actually using Air Force's losses as a negative against Houston.
Nope, just pointing out to whomever asked that Houston has not lost to world-beater teams. There is no transitive property on earth to make Houston's 38-16 loss to SMU look less pitiful than it is. Unless you can somehow go back to the Eric Dickerson / Craig James days at SMU and make some crazy shite up.

Hopefully, they can do as well in their second seasons and not tank like Herman has.

So one true freshman player makes Houston's talent composite better and you think that means they should be undefeated?
No, I think that even if they didn't add anyone and lost some key players from last year they still should have had more than 303 total yards and lost by less than 38-16 to SMU. Not to much to ask from an offensive genius is it?

I concur sir

Guess it equates to Saban's medicore success at Michigan state. If you judge a coach solely on wins and losses without factoring in state of respective program, than you are being short sided. When Saban was at Michigan state, he was heavily courted by NFL executives. Coach O is not being heavily courted to take over Texas. There is reasonZ

My conclusions come from facts. I am not fabricating anything to make a point. Houston will most likely finish the season 8-4 after going 3-4 in the last seven games. They are 13.5 dogs to Louisville at home and go the Memphis (the team that beat SMU 51-7) to finish the season.
What about this season makes you want to hire Herman as LSU's coach. I can understand last season but what has impressed you the most about the current season?

LIES. We won on the the road against OM in 2006. And since then, this was the second time we've played a road game after Bama.
Don't be dishonest.

So, the transitive property doesn't even work for football games being played on the field but you type some stupid shite like this? You are forming an opinion based on shite that happened 2 1/2 decades ago?
Relatively speaking, you don't know what the frick you are talking about.

That's another reason that I think Herman will do even worse next year.

When Saban was at Michigan State they weren't the most talented team in the conference. Houston has been successful with previous coaches including Art Briles and Kevin Sumlin. Hell, Houston fired their last coach for going 8-5 his last two seasons.
Herman may well go 8-5 this season if he loses in a bowl game.

Someone else posted the stat on the Rant. There was also something put on the screen about it during the Ark game that the last time it happened was 1996.
Okay, so CEO won on the road for only the second time in 20 years playing on the road the week after the Bama game.

My father coached on the collegiate level for 20 years. I grew up around coaching. Yeah I don't know jack shite. Transitive property? No it's called gaining lessons learned from prior pit falls. Corporate mangement bases decisions on This and so do Atheltic departments. This is classic case of enotion defies logic. Those typically don't end well. Statistics are going against you. Transitive property of equality that of course relatively speaking, dumbass.

Also was highly respected on the collegiate level. But at the time he was the hot name
for the NFL. If drew Brees got the green light from the doctor in Miami, who knows how that would ended . Better than Culpepper I can assure you that.
