Tom Herman to coach Texas Longhorns? ‘It’s close to a guarantee’

Houston Cougars head coach Tom Herman is the hottest name on the coaching market. Could he end up making the move to take over the Texas Longhorns?

Well, if you listen to one prominent college football analyst, the answer is yes.

During the latest episode of The Audible podcast, FOX Sports’ Bruce Feldman and Stewart Mandel discussed Herman and shared their belief that it will come down to Texas and the LSU Tigers for his services. One all is said and done, Feldman thinks it is “close to a guarantee” that Herman ends up with the Longhorns.

“I think it’s a guarantee you’d get him, or close to a guarantee you’d get him,” Feldman said. “I think it’s close to a guarantee if Charlie Strong is not the head coach that Texas will go get Tom Herman.”

The comments are made around the 19-minute mark of this week’s podcast.
