Herman lost to 3 shitty teams. Would be reckless to pay him Saban money

Won't be surprised if Texas gets cold feet, but they suck at knowing who to hire anyway.

Texas would be foolish to pay the money his agent is asking.

Who else would pay that money? Baylor? I doubt it.

But he beat Jimbo and Petrino who has O beat?
What was his best win this year? Arkansas? a&M?
I'll get behind O because I am for LSU, but don't tell me right now that this a great hire.

Texas will get him but his price tag will drop after O is named.

Saban lost to shitty teams and still got Saban money.

ETA: Saban lost to shitty teams even after getting Saban money.

With players he inherited. After one year of recruiting on his own he lost three games including pathetic SMU.

I agree. I can also see Sexton asking for program crippling money for Fisher.

That said, was O really the clear #3? Were Fleck, Fedora, etc... not better choices? It feels like we settled.

Don't get me wrong, I think O will be better than Miles, but he won't beat Saban.

It's foolish to think we only had 3 options.

We just hired a man with 2 losses to Vanderbilt and a loss to Wyoming on his resume.

Why are we rushing to hire O? It's not like he is getting offers. We should let more interest stew

This is a fair argument - but Texas was willing to pay it.....I can't blame the guy

The real problem (considering your point) why were there only 2 other candidates?

If we pay $1 more that a million for Orgeron, we're throwing money away.

His coordinators should make more than him.
