    Clearly O was a better hire in the short term. Let's see next year.

    You're forgetting about the eye test, though. O has had this team humming since he took over with one slip up that was arguably not his fault. Gundy's teams don't come out every week ready to kick ass.

    I'd prefer Ensminger to Kiffen.

    Was about to bring this up to Stacey. We seriously need to ban him if he can't control himself.

    WOuld of loved to take a gamble on Herman but we knew Texas was going to push the price way up. Reportedley asked for $6M last night...way to much to start negotiations at.

    Well that is Jimbo...his value is in that range and Herman's is not unless someone is willing to take a huge financial gamble and over pay. Wish we would of bid him up even higher and made Texas pay him more.

    BTW Jimbo would of been around $7.5M after incentives.

    I'd say there is a huge difference in value between Jimbo and a hot shot out of Houston.

    Yes 800 k... He kicked Bama butt in the playoff with Ohio State talent.

    He kicked OU and Louisville butt this year and Jimbo butt last year.
