Today's press conference

That was hard to watch. The pressure that Tom is feeling right now showed in his voice and on his face.

 

Did he say anything that was worth a salt?

 

no, HIC, but Bohls did ask him if he was the right coach for Texas

 

What did he say?

 

He's checking his binder.

 

Didn't watch presser, so not sure where this idea comes from.........

 

I didn't hear anything that left me brimming with confidence going into the TT game. Injury report was particularly worrisome.

 

I certainly didn't pick that up from TH, but Davis probably knows better than me.

 

The binder says: "When facing heavy criticism from fans and sports reporters, go for it on 4th down."

 

The good new is that if you missed this, intentionally on my part, it will be replayed 873 times in the next several days.

 

Guess I'll catch the replay on LHN this evening... if true, positive step if he is already "laying groundwork for asst. coaching changes".

 

Yep, it ought to lead to really good game planning for Tech. I'm sure the assistants will all be full in.

Not that it matters, since the game plans suck *** anyway.

 

Their apathy may work to our advantage

 

Go on...my low IQ prohibits me from following your thinking here.

 

Somebody needs to take little kirk on a canoe trip.

 

Anahuac has some lovely "nature reserve" areas for canoeing

 

Bohls may ask stupid and insulting questions most of the time, but aren't many here wondering if Herman is the right coach? Not sure if he expected Herman to say no he isn't, but still...

 

Class & dignity, neither of which Bohls has exhibited in decades. That was neither the time nor the place for that type question. But then, is there a time and place for an ******* like Bohls to report for a third rate quality fishwrap?

 

Bro, your comments are not helping my Tech pre-game apathy.

 

Yes, and Winnie is wonderful in the fall for burying bodies...

 

I'm no fan and don't disagree it was in poor taste. But, that's his MO. He has always tried to be the non-homer Austin reporter and he just looks like a hack.

 

Easy for him since he is one, although that might be a complement

 

Looking like Grizzly Adams there......

 

He's not gruntled Adams!

 

I made it through about 30 seconds of that.

 

Good Grief the injury list is troubling. I know it is late in the season but it seems like there are too many, esp of key players.

and it sounds like there is major dissension in locker room

 

When he was talking about what is going to happen in the offseason including improving the player development program (he said they had had not been doing a good job on player development).

Whatever you think about him, it took guts to admit to the world that game preparation and player development were not acceptable. Not sure how many upper-level Power 5 HC's would do that.

 

That's positive he was willing to admit that and a step in the right direction.

So, here we are virtually at the end of season 3 of the TH era, staring at a potential 6-6 regular season or 7-5 best case finish. What improvements will he make? They better be significant and provide dividends in year 4 that = at least 9 wins or I suspect the BMD's & CDC will be taking a very harsh look at TH.

 

You are getting paid $ 5 Million, so why the hell is your player development and game prep NOT top notch from the word go !!!!!!!!!!! ?????
