Fuente took the most godawful team I'm FBS and turned them into an almost identical team to UH and he doesn't get the Herman hype on this board.

Probably because Herman took a 3rd string QB (who is a shell of himself this year) and won a national championship. Sure, Meyer deserves some of the credit, but look how OSU fared this year without Herman. Obviously, all of their struggles aren't due to Herman's departure, but he definitely deserves meaningful credit for their success.

And when you couple his work at OSU with his immediate, break-out success at UH, he becomes the hottest commodity out there.

Fuentes may be better than Herman, but it's hard to say he's enjoyed a comparable last 2 years. And, heck, Fuentes was hired by Va Tech; that's a pretty nice gig. No one is sleeping on him.

Probably because Fuente has never been a recruiter at a big time school and he has never coached in a NC game.
Herman has done this including organizing a game plan for the team that was running its 3rd string quarterback. He is highly intelligent and comes from a great football background.
