Tom Herman

Twitter @CoachTomHerman

What he's doing on Twitter kicks our entire coaching staff in the crotch

Yeah, he's making an effort to reach out to Houston and from what it appears he has all of his coaches on board with him. Maybe UNT will one day start doing that thing called marketing, maybe. I hear it's really beneficial.

They have pretty sweet posters made up for their "Houston Takeover" campaign and they have a, uh, campaign in general. This kind of petty stuff goes a long ways in recruiting.

Mac is being overtaken by innovation, on and off the field. Progressive thinking isn't for some people, I guess...

I have been in Houston a lot recently and let me tell you, despite Herman's campaign, Houston still don't give a damn about UH and they get about as much media coverage as we do. This is what all the new young coaches are trying to do, but social media only goes so far.

From what I hear on the national news it seems to be working pretty well for isis........... :(

Seeing as how the kids coming to play for this guy are 100% more likely to be on twitter and social media rather than watching the news I would say its going to work.

UH only gets Houston's attention if they are winning big--if not, they are just like every other G5 in their urban markets. The number of t-shirt P5 fans in Houston is enormous, just like it is in DFW. Only difference for UH is that their only local competition is Rice. Meanwhile, the SWC locals run the DFW media when they aren't covering other P5 schools--plus we aren't located in the heart of the Metroplex's big cities, unlike the two private schools.

This Herman guy at UH will find out one of two things in his time there:

1.) If he wins, he's gonna get a P5 job somewhere that will pay him a lot of money

2.) If he doesn't win, UH will fire him--they have the resources to do it, as well as the expectation within the university's "family" to do it
