Tom Herman to Ohio State (Confirmed)

Re: Herman to Ohio State?

This would be an terrible move, so he is demoting himself in a position where he will have to be promoted to OC again? I have never heard of QB coach making the jump to HC.

It does seem strange to me as well. Wonder if he was encouraged to evaluate his options.
 
Re: Herman to Ohio State?

So where do you think we should be with a freshman QB, 3 soph & 1 freshman RB's, and an receiver class that has underachieved for years?

Why is ISU starting a freshman QB? Might be a good place to start asking questions.

Maybe the receiver corps is "underachieving" because the scheme they are running doesn't provide them the opportunity to "achieve".

Losing Herman would set the offense back, he finally has the right players on the roster to run his offense.

Set it back to where? ISU is already at the bottom of the Big 12.

A coaching change is not what the offense needs right now.

The offense needs to score more points. If it takes a new OC to get that done, then so be it.

We're testy on the board today. Really don't know why.

Your arrival is strangely convenient, so it will be interesting to see where this goes.

been searching for a cyclone forum...

heard the inside info on herman and found this on a search.

it's funny how we are the CyClowns and now all of my OSU people are GUSHING over their diamond in the rough....

Now all of a sudden the Cyclones are an offensive powerhouse and Herman is a genius. (really, they're saying he is in MENSA)

Granted it's professional, but didn't Sean Payton go from qb coach at Dallas to head coach?
 
Re: Herman to Ohio State?

Twitter as well. Lots of OSU fans are starting to tweet about it. Search Tom Herman on Twitter.

Yeah, but most of them are responding to blogs, quoting forums quoting blogs quoting forums

That's because he is.

He actually is in MENSA. It was huge here when we hired him.

This will be a fun time.:smile:
 
Re: Herman to Ohio State?

Is he going to run the spread though?

Loney was a pro-style guy, not a spread guy. He was also an o-line coach and developed some GREAT offensive lines while he was here. He had two terms at ISU as OL/OC, first with Troy Davis from 95 - 97 (left to go to U of Minnesota), and again from 2000 - 2001 (left to go to the Vikings). He's been in the NFL as a OL/OC ever since, except for 2007 when he served as Drakes interim HC.

shouldn't you know that as a loyal Cyclone since '77?
 
Re: Herman to Ohio State?

I know you were being sarcastic, but I wouldn't hate having McFarland come back. I think he did a pretty good job considering...
We were a better offense then than we are now, incorporate the zone read into that offense and it could be explosive.

Let's ask Briles/Gundy/Leach who to hire if this is true.
