ugg... This Texas team looks like it was out partying all last night and they are hungover.
Burn it down, burn the ashes, and get the next disappointment started.
Tom Herman or Herb Hand?
I'm going with Hand.
However, anyone on our coaching staff that suggests that Kerstetter is going to play at the next level is on drugs. Our C had 2 false start penalties, at least 2 holding penalties, and on a 3rd & 4 play early in the 4th, didn't make contact with a defensive player. Luckily Roschon Johnson is Hercules and converted 4th and 1.
This goes to my point about how to hire a coach. To me expierence and program building matters more than “OMG he beat this team’! Let’s hire him!” I’ll take a guy like Leach over the hot new name of the week every single day. I always go back to Mack Brown. His recored pre Texas wasn’t spectacular It was respectable but he has the expierence to handle the challenges at Texas and the ability to build the relationships necessary.How about Mike Leach at Miss St. That guy is a helluva coach but everyone in the media thinks he's a right wing nut job so he gets zero credibility. Dude is going to completely disrupt the SEC. That was a great hire.

Yeah his last couple years at NC we’re really good. But in 14 years as a HC pre Texas he never won a conference. So All I’m saying is you can’t get sucked in to recored and titles as your only measurement when looking for a head coach and that tends to be what happens now.Mack's record preTexas was respectable?...It was spectacular!....He had 2 10 win seasons at NC when they couldnt do squat before he got there.
BringBackRoyal I expect this from other posters but not you. I think we're going to be alright. And hey that was a helluva comeback yesterday. 15 points in 3 minutes and how about that onside kick? And in games like these all the defense needs to do is make 1 defensive stand and we did. And although we gave up 56 the stats weren't as bad as some of last years games.Burn it down, burn the ashes, and get the next disappointment started.
We are a better team than last year? Based on what?Weevil it's to early to write off TH. We are a better team than last year and of that I am certain. And there is no coach in the Big XII head and shoulders above TH. And as I said above there is no stat more worthless than good as your last game. I think if we beat the cockroaches and the team really looks good doing it then were on the way back.
Like everyone else I realize that Kerstetter is the weak link in the ol. I haven't liked that guy since the TCU game when he almost got Shane killed. Go back and watch films of that game and see how bad DK played they almost broke Shane. I was happy he went to SMU and saved his career. He is so slow I'm thinking center is a good spot for him all be has to do is remember the snap count and try to stay out of the way. What I'm trying to say he is the weakest link in our ol and he brings everyone else down because of it. Maybe Herb Hand can work around it. I gotta admit I'm surprised hes still here after all the coaching changes. But we've got a good group of skill players and a good qb maybe it can help him. So if I have to pick between him and Herman I'd say Herb. And I still think Herman can rally a team around him. Look at what he's done during these troubled times. We make something out of our ol than we can have an outstanding offense in 2020. For all the points we gave up the defensive stats were not that bad and we did have 3 pics.
And while we gave up an onside kick and a fumbled punt we also blocked a punt and of course the onside kick. And don't forget CD kicked 2 fg's one from 43 yards. People aren't talking about the blocked punt they're dwelling on the negative. And despite the fumbled punt DJ is going to take 1 to the house before the seasons over. Ryan is a good punter. In short well be good on special teams this year. Herman has improved this team far more than you think. I understand the doubts were all frustrated.
I still believe that TH can take us to the title this year.
The issue with Mack is we always came up one game short of the ultimate goal. Usually it was the OU game and if it wasn’t that we slipped up somewhere else.Remember Mack being called a fraud.
We are a better team than last year? Based on what?
We should be better based on the roster alone. We lost CJ, Duvernay, Brian Jones and Malcom Roach from last year's team. Thus far, our receiving corps looks like there is a drop off, but, the running backs, Sam and the coaching of M Yurcich looks like it will be a good year for the Texas offense. Our roster on defense is better on paper with all of the experience and athletes in the secondary and defensive line, but there are a lot of question marks after the Tech game. Let's hope Chris Ash gets this unit going.We are a better team than last year? Based on what?
That’s funny. My aggsy cousin told me the same thing about Mack Brown when we hired him from North Carolina. Both were (are) true.He is?
Let me show you a picture of Mike Leach's trophy case.
cali,
Why should I believe TH is the guy? What does he do that is elite? Please, change my mind.
Cosmi is a sure fire NFL prospect...what in the hell are you talking about? He won't be a 1st rounder because he isn't getting coached up at all, but he is very athletic and will make a solid NFL lineman IMO.
