FRISCO, Texas (AP) When Tom Herman first met with Texas players after becoming their coach, he asked who had been part of a winning season with the Longhorns. Only three raised their hands.
Then there are the high school players the Longhorns are recruiting now, 16- and 17-year-old kids that Herman points out have seen Texas put up twice as many losing seasons (four) as Big 12 titles in their lifetimes.
”The Texas they know is a lot different than the Texas that people in my generation know,” the 42-year-old Herman said Tuesday at Big 12 media days.
