Ouch.

Forgot to put the 'not' in my post. Thanks for pointing that out, lol.

The AAC has been better than the Big XII the past two seasons, IMHO. Or at least the top ten teams in the AAC have been better than the ten teams in the Big XII. We have a chance to better this year as well, but most teams in the XII will be improved.

That he's destined to be a great coach?.............Absolutely.

Back when there was the great Herman/Morris debate, before Morris hired, I said I liked Herman better. I'm sure somebody can/will start digging to find the exact thread, haha. Both very good coaches likely destined for long term success, but Herman just has that extra 'it' factor, imho.

Really a contrast in styles. Herman a little too much of an aggressive style for some I guess. Morris' style seems a little hokey at times, but that's just my impression.

Let the criticism begin...........and remind me how Morris just destroyed Herman last year! :D
