Who Said These Words?

"Some things stay the same. Smart teams, tough teams, disciplined teams win. I’ve spent nine months trying to learn my players. I think I know them, but I’m going to learn a lot more the first night. That’s when I’ll get a better idea of who’s really who. Then we'll go from there."

Correct. Don't be surprised if he's surprisingly effective despite the naysayers.

Both coordinators quit to avoid working with Herm. I believe one of them chose to work at New Mexico State instead, the other went to Memphis. That’s really all the proof I need on Herm. Hired by his old buddy—no one had been interested in him in a decade. He didn’t even know his own program’s mascot upon taking the job.

Agreed, but I have a feeling the kids will respond to him. This isn't difficult to determine. The games will tell the story.

I will be quite surprised if he doesn't blame the players when they get stomped.
