He is - ah - not popular on Surely right now.

Lots of this going on - while seeing only a setting Burnt Orange sun.

UT’s Herman sees what fans still don’t
By Mike Finger
September 1, 2018

As usual, Tom Herman saw what the rest of us couldn’t.

The unsophisticated football-watching public completely misconstrued what happened to Herman’s Texas Longhorns in their season-opening loss to Maryland on Saturday, when what appeared to be the latest in a long line of Texas humiliations actually was nothing of the sort.

This was not a repeat, nor was it a sign of things to come. And we know this because Herman said so.

The naïve among us might have thought we saw a team as unprepared to start Herman’s second season as it was to start his first. But this is because we are uninformed.

We just assumed that a flurry of bone-headed penalties and a rash of late-game turnovers were signs of a squad that remains as sloppy and as undisciplined as ever, but the truth is we are unable to comprehend exactly how much the Longhorns have improved.

Thankfully, Herman was gracious enough to break it down for reporters covering the game in Landover, Maryland, and thereby set the country straight.

Sure, it might have seemed like the Longhorns made all of the same mistakes they did last year, and that the offense showed no signs of progress from a season in which it ranked as one of the worst in the Big 12, but that’s only because we did not notice any of the details Herman and his staff did.

I am covered in dripping sarcasm from just reading that but it was worth it. Mensa making friends in the media.

The Texas faithful had their pitchforks mostly pointed at Beck last year, probably due to his history of OSU and Nebraska fans almost universally disliking him, but now they're turning them on Herman also. I have a feeling that any more embarrassments this season will have them both looking for new gigs.

No way do they fire Herman after two years. If they do, I really can't see any worthwhile coach taking that job regardless of the paycheck. Foosball coaches are arrogant sob's, but they're usually not complete drooling idiots either. Herman will get four years. Though if he's really crapping the bed, there'll be a real shitshow start to surround the program and school as to why the white guy who can't win gets more time than the black guy who couldn't win....who of course got less time than the previous white guys who couldn't win. In the meantime, nothing will be better than seeing Charlie Strong continue to thrive. That'll really drive home the notion that it's not the coach........it's the school.
