Can tigers change their stripes? UH appears to be well put together these days. They are getting very strong students and the school is huge. It's tempting to say "same ol, some ol", but I don't think it's accurate.

With respect to Herman leaving, they should always be able to hire well. They have cats that can flat out play within 15 minutes from campus. Yeoman, Pardee, Briles, Sumlin, Herman. That's a serious list of top shelf guys. The next top shelf guy will be ready to take over if Herman leaves, especially if they start getting $20M+ from the conference.
