It's much more difficult to stop UT's offense than it would appear, and this is Ehlinger's third year in the system. They will be tough to stop. Their defensive coordinator is one of the best in the game, particularly in pressuring the QB. Yes, they are replacing a bunch of players on defense, ...
[quote]I think he handled the part where he talked with a "handler" himself, poorly. In terms of the stuff regarding the suspension, I think he handled poorly with regards to LSU. But probably handled it correctly for Will Wade, particularly if he anticipated some question he couldn't honestly answe...

[quote]I am out of the loop but why would he make this move?[/quote] Lots of reasons to make the move, but no one who's talking really knows which ones motivated him: 1. UH is paying him slightly more than WVU ($4 MM v. $3.75 MM), but he probably has more job security. Presumably he'll get a...
[quote]I don’t know? That’s what you all say about us st Mississippi State. Houston hasn’t been any better than us the last 40 years, but we are supposed to accept mediocrity. Why can’t they? [/quote] I don't know who says Miss St should accept mediocrity. They shouldn't. And the idea that U...
[quote]Yeah, because Houston is such a football powerhouse. Those people should be happy with 7-5, 8-4. Unrealistic expectations leads to bigger failure.[/quote] Yeah, "those people" shouldn't want to do better than 8-5. What are they thinking? It's so unrealistic for UH to expect better; it'...

re: UH possible replacement

Posted by PDM92 on 12/31/18 at 11:37 am
There are several reasons why he might prefer coaching at UH, including that he probably just had his best team at WVU and finished 3rd (or 4th?) in the Big12. He seems to have run his course at WVU. And it's been established that a good coach can have success at UH quickly. Before Major's ...
[quote]They were ok. Nothing to get excited about. IMO there is a lot of wasted space in the building that could be used for better concessions. [/quote] The original footprint is a square, so there is some wasted space in the corners. They have tried to use that space to facilitate entry into ...

re: Kendal Briles Courted by SEC Team

I don’t think folks at UH were pleased with the last 2 years. If Major goes 8-4 next year, he could be done. The administration knows they need to keep fans interested in the program, and the UH president is on record saying that 8-4 will get you fired. (That was Levine’s record when he got canned i...

Kendal Briles Courted by SEC Team

Posted by PDM92 on 12/4/18 at 9:57 pm
https://www.chron.com/sports/cougars/article/Associate-head-coach-Kendal-Briles-signs-new-deal-13440590.php Briles has a good platform at UH b/c King and most of the offense will be back next year. So his decision to stay for another year makes sense—he may be the next head coach if Major gets f...
For the guy saying Fertitta has no allegiance to UH, he went to UH. So that's something. And he just put his name on UH's basketball arena for a mere $20 million. (Another UH alum, John Moores, previously owned the Padres and donated $50+ million to UH in the '90s.) Fertitta is on record as sa...

re: Let's Talk About Shaq at LSU

Posted by PDM92 on 7/3/16 at 12:04 am
Shaq was truly dominant. But Hakeem was the most skilled big man of the last 30 years. The Dream Shake was unstoppable. Hakeem schooled David Robinson so badly in the playoffs the year that DR won the MVP it was embarrasing. ...
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 deserv...
With all the hype he's received, there is certainly very little risk that he's underrated. But there are no holes in his resume yet. Criticizing the schedule doesn't account for the fact that the AAC teams are UH's peer group. It's not fair to say that LSU or most P5 teams would have gone 11-1 ag...

re: U of H search

Posted by PDM92 on 12/11/14 at 4:40 pm
It's almost certain that neither SMU nor UH will get an invite to the Big12. But your view of UH is extremely dated and simply wrong. The new President (Khator) has worked wonders and will continue to do so. UH has several highly ranked programs (including the law school, the creative writing pro...
