Tom Herman Continues Dropping Weird Quotes Not Making Texas Fans Feel Better
© Troy Taormina-USA TODAY Sports
Texas fans are frustrated after a week one loss to Maryland and head coach Tom Herman continues to not make anyone feel better when he opens his mouth. On Sunday, he had a quote that wasn't exactly reassuring moving forward. And then on Tuesday he made this odd "Of Mice and Men" reference when talking about his team...
quote:

“It was kind of Lennie with the rabbit and with George, right; that Lennie wanted so badly to touch the rabbit and play with the rabbit, and he squeezed it so hard, he killed the rabbit,” Herman said. “To me, I know that seems maybe out there a little bit, but I think that’s what the first quarter was. We wanted it so badly that we got in our own way quite a bit, and that’s correctable.”
Oh man this dude needs a big win.

Tom is one strange bunny crusher.

That actually makes sense. He's still disappointing, but not bad.

Plus the reference is wrong. Lennie wants to tend to the rabbits but he kills a puppy.

Didn't he kill a woman too?

Herman's an overrated overpaid douche.

This makes Les and his eccentric, grass eating personality making Yogi Berra worthy quotes seem normal.

This guy would have been run out of Baton Rouge. Probably worked out for the best where he ended up. Fans are probably a little more patient at UT

Mr. Herman, what you've just said was one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Gotta be the first time ever that “Of Mice and Men” was referenced in a football interview.

He’s like a retarded Les Miles.

If that makes sense.

Don't disrespect Miles like that. Miles was a winner.

I thought Tom was a MENSA member? Or was in MENSTRUAL?

Boy did LSU dodge a bullet. I mean, we ended up getting hit with a cannon, but we dodged a bullet.

And the O meltdown on this board was directly caused by the non-hiring of this very strange guy.

Wrong. The O meltdown was caused by the promise that an exhaustive search would be done with the best available being hired. 2 abortions later, the search was called off and O was hired.

Herman is a weird guy. I bet Urban targets every Texas recruit next year.

This is the first sign of many to possibly come. Herman train could be heading for the delirium tracks where at it's eventual derail he'll be babbling incoherently, enervated, wandering towards the ignis fatuus in the marsh unable to understand how it all fell apart.
