Herman called Tanner

[BattleshipTexas]

Gene Sapakoff on a call to Finebaum said Herman called Ray Tanner of South Carolina and was very interested in job. I assume this was before the hiring of Beamer.

Lol! One would assume.

That’s like the ex girlfriend that dumped you because she thought she could do better. She finds out she couldn’t and she wants to come back.

Can you imagine ... so when Texas decides to keep him he calls back and says, "Sorry, I changed my mind ... AGAIN."

Rich Rod 2.0 lol

How stupid would we have looked if we put our eggs in the Herman basket only to have him back out once Urban made up his mind?

 

[AnCRooster]

Supposedly debunked.

Which is exactly what he would've done.

And before he found out he was keeping his job. His contract would have made it almost impo$$ible for us to hire him away... But if they fired him- then it doesn’t cost to get him obviously. Of course then we are hiring another coach fired from his stint with a major program... That would be too easy to attack! I don’t see how the hire made sense for anyone but Herman- IF he had been fired.. Now he gets to see who wants him when he gets fired after next season.

I can see Herman trying to get the h*** out of Texas after they publicly tried to replace him with Urban.

It would be cool if Beamer snatched Herman from Texas and put him on staff wherever his strength is.

Tanner's response: too late I found the man of my dreams

Shane is a lot nicer than Tom Herman. Everyone likes good ole Shane. That is what is important in an SEC coach. Right?

 

[PC31]

That said I bet Tom Herman would have come IF Carolina would have met his buyout, which of course we would not do. Herman knows he is getting fired next year short of a Big 12 title.

 

[92Pony]

If it happened, I hope Tanner politely told him to kick rocks.

Depends on how hot she was .... Tom Herman not so much . He’s gotta feel like a deadman walking the next year or so .

Completely false. When asked to back it up, Sapakoff quickly changed his story. He knows nothing. Has no sources. He'd be perfect for professional message board gossip guy.

I figured it might be made up, as it would be a stupid thing for Herman to do legally.

 

[SpurrierWalkedOnBeer]

I absolutely nailed this a few weeks back.

 

[eno1946]

Herman's agents tricked us before in order to get a big raise....shame on Tanner if let him to it again. Tom Herman is where he wants to be and should stay put. Same with Kirby Smart who was coming here until Ga fired a coach, who had a better record than Kirby at Georgia. We just make coaches richer whether they come here or not.

Spankoff is a joke. The guy disparately tries to remain relevant but is just terrible. I believe he will say anything to try and get clicks and attention.

That's pretty common these days.

I hear he is going to offer Sarah Fuller the special teams coaching job.

 

[USCBatgirl21]

Sapakoff is basically Charleston's version of Ron Morris, IMO.

Kinda like TOS

Kinda like TOS

What is TOS?

 

[Flameout12]

Yep....here's the evidence.

 

[alston]

Supposedly debunked.

There is no way we could afford to pay his buy out at Texas. No way.

Herman assumed he'd be fired, in which case his next employer would not be on the hook for a buyout.
