re: Why do you guys think Herman is our Ace?

Just saw this as well on him

quote:

---

Fleck and WMU had the highest-rated recruiting class in the MAC for the third consecutive year.[31]

So he's really a great recruiter compared to the rest of the competition.. so he's loading up on talent and has better talent than the rest.

Yet.. To open the season, WMU lost to No. 5 Michigan State 37–24 at home in Waldo Stadium. The matchup marked the first time that WMU had hosted a Big Ten Conference opponent since 2007 (Indiana). The following week, they lost to Georgia Southern 43–17. In week 3 they beat Murray State at home 52–20. In week 4 they lost at No. 1 Ohio State by a score of 38–12.

Yet Herman with 3 star talent beats highly nationally ranked teams, and you worry about him dropping 3 games in just 2 seasons.

WMU finished the 2015 regular season with a record of 7–5 (6–2 MAC). 7 of the 12 opponents ultimately appeared in a bowl game. The 7–5 record earned WMU a bowl berth for the second straight year – the first time in program history that the team made bowl appearances in consecutive seasons.[33] On December 24, 2015, the Broncos defeated the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders in the Bahamas Bowl by a score of 45–31. The bowl win was the first in program history – WMU was previously 0–6 in postseason bowl games.

and again this was 2015
