Houston said 5 mill BONUS not salary increase. They still couldn't compete with Texas, TAMU or LSU.

quote:

+ Texas and Ohio and La recruiting


Competing against Texas, TAMU, Oklahoma, and even smaller TCU for top tier Texas talent?

You really think he will compete with Ohio State and Michigan for Ohio talent

LA talent? Where have you seen that he can pluck top LA talent? Where have you seen any Texas school doing that?

quote:

he will do fine building his own legacy. Prestige is building something from nothing AND NOT COMPETING AGAINST the SEC West. No brainer


That seems more like people hoping he stays at Houston than reality.


Listen, it's simple, and here is my thinking on it

Texas will be A LOT better this year than people believe, and I've said this since the offseason

TAMU will not get rid of Sumlin because it's likely he finishes with a 9-10 win season.

Houston will not get into the Big 12, because they don't provide anything new for the Big 12. They don't have any other good sports teams, the don't have a new recruiting ground, and they don't have a new media market. It's pretty silly when you think about it.

Well, for one, a bigger university like LSU or Alabama can offer him whatever resources he needs especially on the recruiting end. Better facilities. More money. Just to name a few. Easier stepping stone for a job in the NFL too if he's looking for that.

Tom Herman is NOT going to come here. Don't give me stats and BS. Houston will pony up the money and they will be in a much easier little 12 power 5. Why would he leave that?
I really despise this shite. Have you spoken to the man personally? If not, you have no f'n idea what he would do if offered the opportunity. I'm not saying that he'd come here, but I'm not going to say that he wouldn't either, cause I don't know and neither do you. That's just a presumptive opinion on your part, Presented in a matter of fact type of way.

ETA: Btw, these coaches don't get where they're at by avoiding competition. I'd say that some of them may even crave it. Thus, any good coach that's ever come into the SEC. If these coaches were afraid of competition, they wouldn't leave where they have more control over things at the college level to go to the NFL where it's basically a crapshoot as far as the talent they end up with.

I'm really starting to believe he is another alter. It seems like he doesn't want Herman here more than he thinks he'll be somewhere else.

Maybe some TAMU plug.

Ed Oliver just got a safety at UH. I followed recruiting long before there was ever a board.
That included watching Dunn, Slash and others leave while we tried like hell to convince them to attend LSU. My friends were all ex LSU players and we worked hard through their high schools. It was been a lot of traveling all over finding kids.

That was directed at you dumbass. U made the comment I directly quoted towards me.
I replied that I've followed and recruited while your sorry arse was still in nutville. God help this country.

DEFINITELY some TAMU plug.


FIFY. He called Texas TU... In all my life, the only people I have ever met to use that saying are Aggies. I grew up in the Houston burbs... No Baylor fan, or TCU fan, or Texas Tech fan, or even Oklahoma fan uses that saying. The butthurt is sincere with that group. His trolling was ok at first, but now it is in the realm of illogical ramblings of a deranged idiot.

Don't think so DUDE. Wasn't talking to you. When people attack me, I defend myself. Don't start it if you can't finish it. Y'all act like reading 247 or knowing some random kids friend or follow them on Twitter like they are some God, makes you an expert. Well here is the reality. The ONLY reason I joined this thread was the comment people on here and the Rant are saying about Tom Herman. I LOVE MY SCHOOL and back it up every year with TAF fees and season tickets to football and baseball. I had basketball tickets for 10 years or so at one point. So I invest in MY school.
I wish we can get herman more than you can imagine - go look at my comments.

Right back at you. Wasn't talking to you either. Stop defending someone who started it all. Making comments about recruiting he has zero idea what he's talking about. I'll tell you like I told another poster, don't talk trash and I won't defend myself.
Another fine example of the uninformed.

which you obviously know zero about. You act like your opinion is the only one that counts, especially when its only your opinion (ill informed one at that.) You shot off opinions as facts and ignore everyone else. That is what makes you an arse and the reason people wish you wouldn't post.
