Tom Herman annoyed by reports linking him to LSU

Houston coach Tom Herman says he is annoyed about reports that he has been contacted for the LSU job and insists the chatter does not affect his sixth-ranked team.
"It's really a non-issue," Herman said Monday. "We are so very open and honest in our program that if it was I would know about it. It's not an issue because our guys have been educated to know that whatever they need to hear about me is going to come from me and it's going to be the truth."
He said on Monday that he wasn't going to waste more time and energy talking about false reports regarding his future.
"Me ranting and raving about it's not going to change it," he said. "I still think irresponsible journalism is more and more prevalent than it ever has been and it stinks because it affects people's lives and livelihood and there's no recourse or repercussions ... instead of me ranting and raving, I have to spend my energy focused on a lot more productive things because I'm not going to change it. I don't know what will or if it ever will."

Just relax and let it happen Tom.

Because his team has a chance to win the national title (still a small chance but legitimate), and the job whispers are a clear distraction.

He should be. It's September. 
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:06 pm to Bench McElroy
What do you expect him to say whether he has been contacted or not?
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:06 pm to Bench McElroy
He really doesn't like LSU.
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:07 pm to Bench McElroy
He didnt say no 
quote:
"You know my stance," he told reporters. "I'm never going to comment about another job during the season. It's not fair to our players. It's not fair to whatever university these reports are about. It's not fair to anybody."

He didnt deny anything.
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:08 pm to Bench McElroy
Interesting that he has spoken to the press a couple of times and he has not said he is not interested in leaving Houston
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:11 pm to Bench McElroy
Just wait until Houston loses a game or two and then his tone will change dramatically.
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:14 pm to Bench McElroy
Sounds like he's annoyed at the press more than anything else.
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:14 pm to Bench McElroy
After reading that, Herman to LSU seems more likely

Of course he's going to get mad with reporters asking him questions about another school during the season.

Herman speaks in concise, clear English. His direct approach dealing with media will be most welcome in Baton Rouge.

This is the only bad thing about canning Les in September.
No coach interested in the LSU job is going to announce that he is interested during the middle of his team's season. It just isnt going to happen that way.

Wonder if he felt the same way when Houston was doing the same thing while he was the OC at O.State during their run to the N.C.?
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:42 pm to Bench McElroy
Wow that was fast. I expected that to happen but not for a month or two.

Doesn't flow as well as "I'm here to coach my damn strong football team....Have a great day!"

Herman better learn to coach with distractions like this because his name is going to be linked to every single potential coaching vacancy out there.
He's the hot name in CFB. That's how this shite works.

he's 100% correct but he better get used to the spotlight. he just needs to handle it better than ranting about it. like it or not those media annoyances are called "hounds" for a reason.
