This happens all the time in college athletics. Coaches plays school against each other all the time, so unless you have a sign contract believe nothing.
Tom Herman is just the latest coach play a team, here are the details on how it went down via Gridironnow.
LSU athletic director Joe Alleva, livid that Tom Herman backtracked on an oral agreement to be the next LSU coach, pulled his offer to the Houston coach late Friday night, a high-ranking source close to the search confirmed.
The source said a perturbed Alleva told Herman’s agent, Trace Armstrong, via phone Friday night, “Don’t worry. I have a guy who wants the job.” Ed Orgeron will be introduced as LSU’s new coach at a news conference Saturday.
Herman assured the LSU brass “he wanted to compete in the best conference in the country,” the source said. The source said Herman also was turned off by the “politics” at Texas.
That changed when Armstrong called Alleva on Friday night to inform him that Herman wanted to hear out Texas.
In the end time will tell if LSU did itself a favor by going with Orgeron.
Herman and his agent says it wasn’t about the money, to that I say……
