Tom Herman (Head Coach FAU Owls)

College football top 25 scores, overreactions, Week 13: Tom Herman and Jimbo Fisher are busts so far

Tom Herman is on the hot seat: It's ... warmer than it was a few months ago, that's for sure. You have to take Texas' 24-10 loss to one-loss Baylor, which dropped it to 6-5, with some context, though. Not even a year ago, it capped off a 10-win season with a Sugar Bowl victory in Herman's second year. It's too soon to abandon ship. The problem is this is the new standard at Texas and has been for the past decade. The Longhorns have lost at least four games each year since 2010. Is Herman the one to get it turned around? That question has been asked a lot, and in Year 3, there's not a definitive answer. Theoretically, at a blue-blood, championship-level depth should be noticeable by now. With Texas, it's not.

It's the old standard pre-2004 too. 2004-2009 was the aberration to Tejas football. This is the rule.

The irony that so many want Urban, you know the guy Titty Bar tried to ruin, to take his job from him. A swing and another miss.
Doubly hilarious because over the years they've spoken of him in near-Hitlerian terms. Wanting him is stripping away their Xichiganesque sense of moral superiority. It's analogous to that "family values Christian" politician with a wife and five kids being unable to restrain himself from doing dudes half his age on the side.

"Herman is one or two more gimmicks away from wearing big floppy shoes and a red nose."

The full quote is even funnier.

Herman is one or two more gimmicks away from wearing big floppy shoes and a red nose. The problem for the Longhorns is that Herman was thought to be The Savior, The Chosen One. He is one of those hires that should have their fan base wondering "Man, if we can't win with THIS guy, with his background, then where do we go next?" (For the record, Herman, Jimbo Fisher at Texas A&M, Scott Frost at Nebraska, and Jim Harbaugh at Michigan comprise the Mount Rushmore of "We are ALL-IN on this guy" head coaches.)
