Herman. There's a reason so many UT fans are freaking out that LSU is in the mix. This guy's ceiling is Saban-like. It's a gut feeling, but if we land Herman, Saban's trend starts to move downward.

We're at a crossroads in the program and the right/wrong hire could make or break us for the next 10 years. We could end up like USCw or Florida if the wrong hire is made. Or, we could end up like Ohio State with a boost in the program and a Natty to boot.

I don't think fans who have O as their preferred choice truly understand what is at stake here. As a fan base, we've been pretty spoiled the last 15 years or so. We had Saban, won a natty, then had Miles, won a natty and were a perennial top 10 team. Yea, the last 3 years have been rough, but they certainly haven't been Florida in the post Meyer age, or Texas in the post Brown age, or USCw in the post Carrol age.

This is way too big of a moment to waste on anything less than a homerun hire. Herman gives you that for sure. Jimbo is a close second. O might be a stand-up double...
