A Question for NTXCoog and CougarKing, other UofH Fans

I doubt Applewhite would be Houston's first or second choice. Houston has the money to go after the top candidates in the country so I doubt they'd settle for Applewhite without exhausting other options. 

If Hermann does leave and Applewhite doesn't get the job, I think that boosts are chances tremendously.

If it happened, I wouldn't expect Applewhite to take over.  If it was anyone on the current UH staff, I'd think it would be DC Todd Orlando who makes $500k vs Applewhite's $300k.  Applewhite's salary is even the same as Asst Head Coach/Co-DC/Safeties coach Craig Naivar.  So just going by current salary, Applewhite isn't considered the top assistant.

But I would bet if Herman left, it would be another up and comer from outside the current staff.

Houston has the money to get any coach they want.  Tillman Fertitta can write the crack out of his petty operations account and get the coach.  Houston's goal is to get into the P5.  Step 1 could be Tillman writing that check.

Agreed. I don't expect Herman to bolt after this season.
