Long-term, though, this is perfect. We'll just hire him back from Texas when we're ready.

Texas is taking a page from Awburn's playbook:

Herman is owed a $15 million buyout and assistants an additional $10 million in buyouts.

"With our football season coming to a close, our vice president and athletics director, Chris Del Conte, has evaluated the UT program's strengths and weaknesses and where the program is relative to our goals. While we have made measured progress during the past several years under Tom Herman's leadership, Chris has recommended to the university president, Jay Hartzell, that UT make a coaching change to get us on track to achieving our ambitious goals," Texas' statement read. "President Hartzell and the chair of our Board of Regents, Kevin Eltife, concur with this recommendation and have approved the change. We thank Coach Herman for his service and dedication to our student-athletes, our program and our university."

Heck of a job for him. But man this stinks. Wanted at least one more year with him since we are losing so much on offense and breaking in a new QB

I am assuming that Sark and Saban knew this would come out today and have a solid game plan for managing everything going forward. At least he seems to be much steadier than LK and I predict will keep his focus on the coming game. Signing date is in February I think...good luck to him. He's worked hard and well for us.
