First Hire Made - Tom Herman is off the board

wesfau2 · « **on:** November 20, 2015, 10:48:38 AM »

Accepted the USCe job at $4.5M/yr.

Seems high for a guy coming from Houston who hasn't won anything of note, but the schools are going to pay through the nose with this many openings available.

Huh. We could trade them our HC (Gushlee) and Jughead for their AD. No buyout remaining.

It was just an opportunity to make a dick joke.

Yup but as soon as Spurrier retired I was thinking how Columbia would be a nice destination for Gushlee, out of the extreme heat with time on their side.

Not seeing anything on the wire about Herman taking this job. And Finebaum was just speculating about where he might land. Houston PTB just approved a raise to $3M trying to keep him.

Jacobs would play hard ball and not go a dime over $1.75m. Oh, and pay no attention to that $12m buyout clause.

Doesn't seem like that long ago that we were laughing at Alabama for paying $4 million for Nick Saban.

EDIT - I'm not seeing this anywhere else. Anyone have a link?

Only person I saw announce it on Twatterz was Barrett Sallee. He got it from some random crap twitter account like "Breaking Football News Now!" it appears. I wouldnt trust that dude to report anything.

Today's lesson:

My Louisiana skreets say Miles will be gone by the time they've finished playing their bowl game. Add LSU to the list of schools in front of us in line should we be dumb enough to pull the trigger this year.

ESPN ticker was scrolling something similar last night across the bottom. Said that even before the OM game, he and the PTB were working out a departure.
