I'm a fan of the guy, but did his on the field results justify 6mil?

Good. He's been a HC for two years at a team like Boise st. He's lost to SMU, Navy, and Memphis, and his team has looked really bad in other games. He hasn't proved he deserves that type of money yet.

Wouldn't have paid him 6 m either. That's just stupid.

I doubt it was a money issue. It was a Herman favoring Texas over LSU issue that couldn't be resolved.

This looks like Texas using the media to soften the blow for overpaying for herman.

I agree, Herman may be a 6 million guy in the future but he is not that type of guy today. I hope UT retains Strong or moves to another coach besides Herman. When the next talk of expansion occurs Herman will see that UH will not be offered. To me Herman is the biggest looser goi g forward.

Yeah! AWesome! We're not "overpaying" for some coach with incredible promise, we're going to go cheap for a coach no one else wanted!

Things did go as planned for him, this year. Let's be honest, he may have a huge upside, and he is by far a better coach than O, but 6 million is a lot, for a guy who hasn't proven much as a HC. Sure, he beat OU and Louisville, but he lost several games that he shouldn't have.

Honestly, 5 mil is what he deserves not 6. I don't care if anyone disagrees because he hasn't earned that sort of money

If true, LSU just picked Archer over Spurrier ... again.

I dont think it was ever about the money...it's about control...Miles had too much power, Herman/Fisher would have had too much power....Jones has no power, Nikki Hyphenated has no power, PM has no power, and Orgeron will have no power...Aleva is now in total fricking control

Same agent that leaked the news?

He hadn't proven shite yet. He had potential, but still losing to very poor to poor teams.

I expect Herman will have a new agent soon. Lol
