Cincinnati and Houston have every right to be pissed. IMO, both deserved an invite. That said, I think this is much more devastating to Houston. They played all their cards and were the prettiest girl at the dance but still got rejected. Plus, the only way they were gonna get Herman to stick around was by getting into the B12.

Yes, definitely a positive to get some peer review on your resume. I'm sure the AD office picked up some knowledge.

Expansion talk dragged on just long enough for all to forget about Baylor's transgressions. Mission accomplished. Now back to the status quo.

Can Houston hold on to Herman this upcoming off-season? You've got to imagine LSU and Texas are hounding him now. Either way, I've never seen a school be able to back-fill top coaching talent with a new wave of young coaches like Houston has. They'll be okay.

At this point they are starting to become like Miami where the program outweighs the coach. They will be ok even if he leaves. Great for them!

they've already replaced Art Briles, Kevin Sumlin and their only real miss was Tony Levine.

They'll be fine.

Herman is gone. He needs to hire a realtor in the Austin area if he hasn't already.

USC could end up being a player for Herman as well. He'll have lots of options.
