Houston Coaching Candidate Wish List: 5 Replacements For Tom Herman

Seth Littrell, North Texas Head Coach

The Mean Green won just one game in 2015. Enter Littrell, who has North Texas at 5-6 entering its regular-season finale and on the cusp of a possible bowl bid in his first season. The former Oklahoma team captain, who won the 2000 national championship in Norman, coached under Mike Leach at Texas Tech from 2005 to 2008 and was at Arizona from 2009 to 2011. He really started to turn heads after he moved on to work under Larry Fedora at North Carolina in 2014 and was part of the Tar Heels’ 11-3 team in his final season before he moved onto UNT. He has only been there a year, but he has already started to re-establish himself in the Lone Star State. He is bound for a bigger job sooner than later.

Lol. If we can't keep our coach after an 6-6/5-7 team, what even is the point anymore? Especially laterally?

How is this a possibility. We are LAST in offense in CUSA. Dead Last. 

[brooks91]

I don't think it's serious but I'm happy we finally have a HC who other teams would actually consider hiring.

They will promote apple white.

Love Seth, but no chance this happens 

[KingDL1]

Seth has his full buy out and still needs to prove a couple of things.

What ticks me off is how houston appears to be a better place to coach than North Texas, it should not be.

[GreenTexan13]

If this list is serious, I think SL would be 5th pick. Houston's got a good coaching staff as is... Just promote someone at Houston and stick with the system that's been played. SL will be our coach next season. I do think we are going to lose him to a P5..  Going 6-6 after a disastrous last season, definitely turns head.

Since the Big 12 did not expand expect to see Houston cut back on expenses.  Houston will avoid any buyouts.

They were investing to make the B12, that not on the table any more.

People who know college football -, really know college football (and that's not me and probably not you) -  base evaluations on more that just records and statistics.  I suspect there are folks in Texas college football who understand and appreciate the job Seth Littrell has done this year.  Their biggest problem in making this decision might be in explaining it to the geniuses on their fan boards.

poor grasp of grammar

[southsideguy]

Why would he move from Big 12 to AAC?  I guess they could pay him a bunch of money but it doesn't make sense to me.

[southsideguy]

They say he turned down an extension at WV this year, has texas ties????  Just their fan board talking.  But if the big 12 is going to collapse take the money and run lol.

Seth successful next year and Texas Tech stumbles next year, this is when I would worry. Mahones will go pro! They may really suck next year!

This.  President has said as much.  Faculty is up in arms.  They will save money.  It will be Applewhite or Orlando.

if they promoted the dc i will go with your pick.

[MeanGreenBuzz]

If they hire Littrell I say we hire Strong and get him to agree to $1 a season to stick it to the shorthorns ? They still owe him $10.8m only reduced by what he makes at his next job.

[RushnStudies]

I'm not buying this.

[Withers940]

Littrell's
