    Well, depending on your interpretation of the Hegelian Dialectic and it's utilitarian and empirical value, I do know what I'm saying.

    Hell, on the other hand, is debatable.

    I don't know that the term trailblazer is appropriate. However I will say this, he uses social media better than any coach I have ever seen. It has provided him a huge advantage in recruiting. He also utilizes the local media in Houston exceptionally well.

    No one knows what the future holds, he could fizzle out or could change jobs. However I will say that he has discussed the advantages of coaching at a top 10 institution (OSU) and a school like UH. At his current job he has a level of control that he would not get elsewhere. Herman likes having control and where he is at, he literally controls everything. He is not a big fan of overbearing boosters. That is why he very well may not leave if he keeps getting what he wants, and he will get what he wants as long as he keeps winning.

    It seems that with the Cyber Thursday Code TEMPLELOSS we not only got Tom Herman at 2.8 M but we will also get free shipping with prime. Herman's name is out of the barn, and in the henhouse! Houston 84 Temple 10.

    I just noticed on the Cougar web site the "For Recruits" section. Is this new because of Herman or has it been there all along?

    I am happy that NC lost because playing either NC or Clemson seemed low key to me.

    I hope we don't get stuck with Iowa.

    All other teams are welcome.

    Peach Bowl is what the coaching staff thinks we end up with.
