I turned Tom Herman's media day fail into a GIF.

I've never been a football coach, but even I know the answer to that one:
"Every one of our players has the potential to be an elite player and a difference maker, we don't recruit them if they don't have that potential. The coaches can give them the tools, but they need to bring the effort and the attitude."

If you want honesty, he answered the question honestly.
If you want coach-speak that never actually tells you anything, he didn't give that to you.
I, personally, appreciate honesty. If Mike Leach had given the same answer to the same question, ya'll would think it's funny and that he's a great coach. Herman does it and it's funny and he's a bad coach.
He could have given the KDS death stare...FishingAggie said:agnerd said:

I disagree. He even said the question caught him off guard. A person in his position should have an answer ready. Especially during media days. Lol
He went blank. Had nothing. You or I could have done what he did. Sat there looking stupid.
Leach would have said,
" playmakers?? Bwahahahaha did you see us play last year? Did you watch our games? Our water boys fell down running to the huddles. Our best player was our punter. Our qb doesn't remember last year. He got a few bumps along the way. Nothing serious. He still played...
I have no idea what we have. I'll let you know after September if someone shows up"....
