Hermann isn't much of a TV personality.

He has coached in Texas, Ohio and Iowa and is from California. He has a pretty broad geographic experience.

He’s still young (like 42 or something) so he will end up coaching again. My prediction is he will take 2021 off then take a G5 job for two seasons or three and then a mid level P5 gig (e.g. Arizona State, Missouri) where the expectations are not as high as Texas.

I wouldn’t mind UTEP taking him once Dimel gets fired this coming season. I know he would succeed but he’ll leave at the first opportunity.

If Lane Kiffin keeps getting jobs, I don’t see the reason why Herman won’t.

After getting fired by USC, Kiffin spent 3 years as an Alabama assistant before getting the Florida Atlantic job and then 3 years at FAU before becoming the Ole Miss HC. If that’s your comparison for Herman, it might be awhile before he is offered another P5 head coaching job.

My point more or less was is if Kiffin keeps getting HC jobs, so can Herman. The former is IMO grossly overrated and and the latter has a better HC record. It’s not a matter of if for Herman, it’s a matter of when and where.

He just got paid $15 million by Texas. He can afford to wait or even work as a tv analyst although some posters on this thread think he doesn’t have the personality for it.

Word is that he would like to get a job on the next level.. that's what Anwar Richardson talked about on his pod when Herman's future was brought up.

Kiffin had a whole lot more baggage holding him back that Herman doesn't have.

Don't Meyer and Herman have beef with each other? I seem to recall Meyer was highly critical of Texas earlier this year, calling out the coaching staff.

Not that I am intending to insult Hermann, but he has more of a Jeff Fisher personality, not a Mack Brown or Dabo Sweeney.

UTEP might not be the best fit. What makes you think he can build a roster there? He’s never had to prior to austin and failed there yet he’s gonna recruit to a spot 8 hours from any talent base?

I think UTEP needs a proven program/roster builder who didn’t have a job with easy recruiting gifting him a talent base.

He seemed to get along with everyone at his stops at Rice, ISU and tosu. Think he just became a narcissist once he became a HC at UH then UT. Very stubborn guy who believed he made no bad decisions.

NFL would be a good stop as a WR or QB assistant. I think he can still be a very good HC, but he needs some personal growth to achieve it.

So, you agree with the comparison to Jeff Fisher, because that describes Fisher to a T.

Sark could not have more momentum going to Texas after tonight. Incredible play calling and player development.

Not as dominant as this team was. Also that was predicated on 1 guy- Zeke Elliott. Team scored 48+ points in 7/15 games- 5/13 vs P5 competition.. Alabama in 8/13 games with a much tougher schedule.

Also, Herman (and Pruitt) did not have HC experience before like Sark has had. However, those two coaches, too, did have momentum riding high into their new gigs. The question remains if Sark can be elite at Texas, but the momentum and excitement are both clearly there.

Yeah and Sark going into a situation much better than Pruitt did (Herman going to Houston a bit of a different situation). This would be more comparable to Kirby Smart quite frankly at Georgia.

But it was down to its 3rd string QB.
