Something is likely going on with Herman in Houston

Maybe he's practicing losing so he fits in better at Texas.

Gentlemen's agreement

That Texas job is about to be his

His OC has ties to Texas

Doubt Major is hired back at Texas.

If Herman says that's my guy. Its done

and if I were him,

If you were him, you'd think a lot differently. If you were him, you might would look around and see winning the Big 12 is a lot easier than winning the SEC. Or maybe you look at Austin. Need I say more?

Houston players know herman is leaving. Past two weeks they look lethargic and uninspired. Definitely don't look like the same team who beat Oklahoma and Florida state.

Wherever Herman ends up i am more concerned about him not trying to pull Aranda away from us. I think the likelihood is low, but with a new coach coming here, i am not sure. It's possible Herman ends up at UT and our new coach decides it's not worth it to try and outbid them for Aranda. Right now, i think Aranda is the most important person on the LSU staff, and LSU will desperately need him next year with all guys going to the NFL.

Herman has a great DC

I don't disagree. I was just thinking if you have the opportunity to take Aranda why not? If UT is willing to pay him that is.

I guess it would be more likely for Herman to ask than Aranda to actually leave since the big 12 seems to have forgotten what the word defense means.

Maybe it's an easier task in big 12

I didn't mean that if that's what you thought I was saying. I meant big 12 doesn't even consider defense these days, and if Aranda wanted an HC job he would likely be better off to prove that at LSU where we value our DC. So i guess Herman could ask, but Aranda would likely want to stay here for reasons i stated. Just speculation.
