Texas A & M has scheduled an 11 a.m. press conference today to announce that Houston Texans offensive coordinator Mike Sherman will be the next head coach. Sherman is returning to A & M where he was the offensive line coach from 1989-1993 and 1995-96.
Sherman replaces Dennis Franchione who resigned after a 38-30 A & M upset win over rival Texas Longhorns. This is Mike Sherman's first college head coaching job, but he was head coach of the Green Bay Packers from 2000-05 where he lead the Packers to three straight NFC North division titles (2002-04) with a winning percentage of .663 (53-27); second best in team history only to Vince Lombardi.



Any word on how much we're gonna pay this guy? I'll be interested to see how we do in our bowl game with a such a change (not that we didn't see this coming) last minute. Thoughts?
