Ketch's 10 Thoughts From The Weekend (A moment of great opportunity...)

I just feel like they are both going to look at it and say there is no point in playing this game.
It removes the threat of his not being around for the long haul as a tactic against him in recruiting.
I hope UM has realized that Saban will likely retire during Meyer's tenure here. Dabo will either keep Clemson humming or move over to Alabama, and Ryan Day seems like the real deal but nobody is replacing Saban on Mt Rushmore for a long time. But, Meyer could have a shot at unseating him, and wouldn't have to compete against him.
Just so many timing advantages with this thing. If we cannot pull it off, it will be the biggest missed opportunity in coaching ever.

This feels like the perfect storm. There are so many things that line up for Texas to make this happen. At all cost we desperately need Urban Meyer. Imagine a world where a coach that successful has the full backing of the Titan that is the Texas Longhorns. It would be perfect to open recruiting and next season in a brand new state of the art football facility. It’s the only thing that puts Texas right in the mix with the regional powers and the national powers alike. Let’s hope one bounces our way for once.
Just what I've heard in the grapevine.
I want to see some sustained on field success.
That was my impression at least. My fear is like many others. UM says no. Who is even in same planet as UM?
Woah. Not denial at all.
It's a string of things that happened together.
a. It started with the demands that Herman was perceived to help cultivate with the march in the summer. The Eyes thing that followed was seen by alums as something Herman helped created and CDC didn't get in control of.
b. Obviously, the OU game fisasco falling directly after the TCU game fiasco was another set of events that CDC felt Herman should and could have prevented. Neither man has truly answered questions about the miscommunication and directives from this stretch of time.
c. It's out in the universe that CDC felt that criticism of his job performance was a plant by Herman, which is how three head coaches were all allowed to put out statements on the same day supporting Herman and undercutting their coaching colleague. The feeling was this was set up by CDC as a response to the "hit" he felt Herman put out.
It's basically a lot of drama.
Urban at 56 is the same age Saban was when he went to Bama! Imagine having that kind of success for the next 8-10 years! Selling point to Urban should be that.

Both Cristobal and Fickell have better resumes than Herman had in 2016.
