Herman is currently a hot name among the coaching vacancies in college football, notably linked to the University of South Carolina last week and the University of Georgia this week.

At a Board of Regents meeting on Nov. 19, the board approved a measure allowing for the renegotiating of Herman’s contract, including a new base salary of at least $3 million.
