FAU set to part ways with Tom Herman

Don’t hire coaches from the broadcast booth.
I wouldn’t touch Mullen for the same reason.

I wonder how things would have played out for Tom had he chosen LSU.

Was he always just overrated AF or just unable to wash off the scent of the UT failure?

Still a fun few weeks on the board, rooting for Texas to win each week so strong would keep his job

I know Herman has sucked, but everyone has sucked at FAU except for Kiffin, and even he went 5-7 one year.

I'm not sure replacing coaches every 2 or 3 years is a good recipe to turn around a G5 program, even in the NIL/portal era.

LSU could have propped him up for a time

Mullen will get another chance if he wants it, he could run roughshod over the ACC

2016 me would never have believed this timeline.

We all wanted him. And I melted when he took Texas.

He’s a bit of a prick and weirdo, which I’m guessing gives him less leeway with admin and boosters compared with someone with more charisma (ex: Mack Brown or even Coach O). His record wasn’t bad at Texas.

His Houston sample size was small. He inherited a talented roster and good QB that were recruited by Tony Levine. He won a NY6 bowl in year one and had that weird year two where there were nonstop rumors of him leaving and he managed to beat OU and Louisville with Lamar Jackson but lost to Navy, SMU and Memphis. He had a great recruiting class that year (headlined by Ed Oliver) and I wonder if he would’ve kept the momentum going had he stayed, though the team was due for a bit of a drop off given loss of senior talent.

Bring him in, he's cheap now...
