Guest Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Coogs are a legitimate Top 10 team and just got better. Good choice, Kyle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he left A&M because of Kyler Murray. He didn't go to OU because of Kyler Murray. Now he has to come compete with a Kyler Murray clone at UH. Not to mention Bowman Sells is probably what Kyle Allen would be had he played in Texas. Very interesting to see how he does on the roster with a bunch of Texas qbs not rated as high.

Guest Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 He sits out next year as Ward leads the Coogs probably to another big bowl appearance, if not national championship. Once Ward goes into the NFL draft after 2016 season, Allen will have potentially two years of eligibility remaining and will look to start from there. I believe this was a good career choice for Him. This Offense in UH fits his arsenal much better than at A&M. I disagree with your assessment on WHY he left A&M. There's internal combustion going on there right now and Sumlin is next man out.

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 JFF made Bumlin at a&m. Bumlin fell off ever since. Its funny Allen going back to Bumlin old stopping grounds. Without Keenum would Bumlin had success there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoonbill Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Good move for Allen but I'm not sure if Herman will be around for his debut. Another season like the one they just had and the big boys will be courting him even harder. He will be more than deserving of one of the HC jobs at one of the top schools. The Houston job has been and always will be a springboard job for great coaches. They know that tho and it works for them.

Yeah, but you have to take into consideration that UH just beat a tier 1 CF powerhouse (top 5) conference with ease in a prime time bowl. This is not anywhere the Cougars have been as a program, so I do anticipate the Univ will take steps in joining a conference worth sustaining this type of long term success. Look out for the next 3-5 years. UH becomes the premier football university in the state of Texas, along side Texas and Baylor. You heard it hear first.

TxHoops Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Irony is I predict Allen will never take a snap for Herman. He will either get the job he has been waiting for after next season or take one elsewhere (barring a collosal collapse by the Cougs). Hope Kyle is happy with his replacement.

He's a great recruiter and obviously has a very astute football mind. Always hoped he would one day be the head coach at Texas. His extracurricular activities during his last stint probably will prevent that from ever happening again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baylor and Houston are already there - Texas gonna have to climb a little before they can "be a premier" football school in the State of Texas: My current rankings for the state of Texas: Baylor - Houston - TCU - A&M - Texas Tech - Texas But who knows all things are subject to change.

They get a good to great 2 or 3 years out of these guys that are looking for that "bridge" job. If Herman can beat Boomer Sooner in their first game next year and run the table, they will most probably make the 4 team playoff. The Cougs couldn't ask for more. I highly doubt they change conferences any time soon. It most definitely wouldn't be to the big 12. That conference is set up to be SO skewed towards TU and Sooner it's stupid.
