To me this is all conjecture without merit. Tom Herman is just another media darling that got hired at a big school who has done nothing. The name of the school means nothing and the recruiting class means nothing if the coach is not the right fit. We crown a coach with a losing record at the richest school with all the facilities, resources, etc but criticize our own coach for going 8-3 with what he was given.I get the TH hate, really. He is however a very very good coach, and at UT where he will have every advantage a college FB team could dream of, money, facilities, recruiting base, tradition etc., it is only a matter of time. Already UT is sitting at around a top 5 class this year, and that will only get stronger each year. UT can and will outspend any school in investment in their program, their wealth is vastly greater than even Bama, by a lot. UT should never be behind the TCU’s of the world in anything, they simply have those type teams beat in every meaningful measure in CFB. Herman will have his day, and soon.
Herman ain’t done squat. Muschamp has.
