Good medicine. The end is near for Kliff. There is a man in Italy that will be taking his job.....the country not the town.

Make sure you have foil for the windows and duct tape for the screen door. I use duct tape on both. Thank you very much. I use tinted film for the sun screening.

I get what you're saying, but it feels like there are no chiefs and a bunch of indians. This is why they looked hungover? it was the peyote. they thought they were in the spirit world.

I get what you're saying, but it feels like there are no chiefs and a bunch of indians. i think that herman isn't able to run his program at UT like he was able to at houston. too many people dictating (AD, boosters, etc) to him how he needs to do things. I was having this exact conversation earlier with a friend. the conversation started with my saying that willie taggart is overrated and not qualified to steer a ship like fsu. I compared him to charlie strong at texas and how his having a few great years at louisville gave the illusion that he could handle a job that big, even though there were down years that would have gotten him on the hot seat at a bigger school. now he's back at a smaller program and doing great (ironically with taggarts kids, but I digress). As I was talking about this I realized I was describing tom herman. the sky doesn't fall at a place like USF, Louisville and Houston when you go 7-5 or 5-7.... we'll get em next year coach. but at a place like texas or fsu, 7-5 puts you on notice and 5-7 gets you the door.

Sounds like Bob Costas-esque investigative journalism.

Exactly right. Had the same conversation with a Techie the other day. Winning 7-8 games consistently is good enough for Tech, A&M, Baylor, Houston, Rice, etc. But UT, Ohio State, Bama, USC, Michigan, FSU, and a handful of others turn up the heat and expect to win 12 games and have a conference title thrown in every few years. Herman is too smart for his own good. His arrogance will be his downfall. The good thing for Texas is they have an Athletic Director who is going to grab the bull by the horns and get the Athletic Department going in the right direction. He's made two great hires for softball and track. I expect a meeting with Thomas will take place shortly after the season and changes will be made. Loved Charlie Strong and everything the man stood for, but he was in over his head. Herman, much to my disdain, had me fooled with the song and dance. However, two straight losses to Maryland (who will probably win 4 games all year), a below average season last year has me thinking the Horns made the wrong decision. Don't go after a mid-major coach. Go get a P5 conference coach that can handle the load. He will get another year. If Strong could make it three years then Herman can talk his way to that. I do agree that they need to find a big name instead of the up and comer who it may be uncertain that they can win. None of this matters as Art Briles will be at Texas Tech soon enough!!!

Guys, Art Briles isn't going to tech or anywhere else at the FBS level. he's political smallpox at this point. move along and hope you can snag kendall from houston, because that's the closest you'll get.

You guys are missing the point.
Big XII needs to be Dissolved. It is becoming like the old SWC. OU, TX, OSU, TCU to the SEC TT, Baylor, KSU, Kansas PAC 12 WVU and ISU to Big 10. With Boren gone from Oklahoma I can see the Big XII will die
