Get Todd Orlando on the phone

We kmow Herman’s success was primarily Todd Orlando along witj developing players after Major’s offense failed last seaaon. The failure of D’Onofrio proves that we made a mistake choosing Applewhite over Todd Orlando. Just imagine a Briles offense wirh Orlando Defense.,

Hire Orlando as headcoach and keep Briles as OC

Ferittta and company made a mistake plain and simple in choosing Applewhite over Orlando. Bottom line.

At th very least they made a mistake with their bluster about not being a stepping stone and cutting out most potential candidates with their huge buyout.

Orlando is the one who recommended Coach D to Major. Orlando has stated he would of hires Coach D if was the head coach here as well. The hatred for Applewhite is getting ridiculous! Why in the hell would Orlando come here after we passed him up the first time? Also, the reason we chose Applewhite over Orlando is for recruiting. Applewhite has a bigger network then Orlando who had never coached in the state of Texas before coming UH. Blame Herman for not recruiting effectively on defense and then taking the only few good recruits with him to UT. Wake up to the fact that Herman left a lot of holes that Applewhite is having to fill.

Todd Orlando as head coach or defensive coordinator here are both non-starters. I appreciate everything Tillman does for us but maybe he should stay out of the whole coach hiring thing.
