Tom Herman (Head Coach FAU Owls)

Mississippi State's QB coach is 27 years old and played for Urban. Long shot candidate, but interesting with his age.

I saw his name floated elsewhere - also read that a recruit has taken us off their list due to coaching change but haven't heard anything else with regard to impact on recruits.

I like the idea of Warrior as the OC with Brian Johnson as assistant and QB coach. Job one, two, and three has to be keeping W on the staff. It couldn't hurt, though, to have a young, black QB coach who is personally familiar with Urban's offense.

I think Warinner ends up with the OC job. As far as the QB coach job, there is someone out there that knows the system as well as anybody and was also a former QB under Meyer who right now doesn't have a coaching gig...
Tebow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



j/k, Johnson would be awesome

I think our offense will keep rolling even though Herman was a very good OC. I think where he could potentially be missed (meaning we need a great replacement) is as the QB coach...the progression of Braxton, JT, and Cardale have all been remarkable and that is not an accident. I think under the old regime we could be bordering a Bauserman reincarnation digging this deep but under his tutelage, all QB's are playing spectacular football. The other area of concern could be our Texas recruiting because Herman did fantastic work down there and we will need someone to step it up now that we have dug some nice ties down there.

The (huge) silver lining in this is that we may keep Warriner longer due to being able to bump him up to OC and give him a very, very handsome pay raise. But as it relates to Herman, his legacy will be held in high regard by me. I think he adapted the scheme well with personnel and generally was creative when need be...yes, we complained about play calling sometimes but no couch quarterback will refrain from questioning play calling when things go bad. Above all, I really respect him for committing to this team through the playoffs. All fans should wish nothing but the best for Coach Herman and that is what I have been seeing.

I like the idea of hiring Lane Kiffin to replace Herman.

I am celebrating and am super happy and I love you Tom but get your head right for next game. That pass on first down was the worst coaching mistake here since I don't know when. The calls in the redzone and when we were backed up on our own goal line were really bad. Fix it. #15 is the most underrated player in the NCAA give him the football
