Do you judge Saban by his time at Michigan State? Or Lane Kiffin for his time at Tenneessee and USC? Lon based on his time at Pan American? Moser hire hasn't worked out, but he'd been excellent in his 4 years leading up to the hire, which is more relevant than what happened 20 years ago. We...

So you're saying you'd be excited to hire a guy from a smaller conference that let's say.... Was top 2 in conference each of the last 4 years and had a Final 4 and Sweet 16 run to go along with it? SEC is different. It's not the same as the MVC.

To be fair, they won 8 games the year prior to him taking over, and were projected highly going into the season after he was fired. Jankovic took over his roster and had a 25 win season. You could say it's better X's and O's, but Jankovic got worse every year and is no longer in coaching, so...

We'll win the next one. Book it.

I wonder if Philon's parents just didn't know how to spell Lebron.

We're gonna kick their ass @daqman

Outside of year 2, his 19 and 20 win seasons during the other 3 were pretty much status quo for the post-Sampson era. We've outperformed that a couple times with generational talents like Blake and Buddy, but we've otherwise had to accept that 20 wins is a success instead of a foregone...

With recruiting this past year, it was clear that our NIL was cranked up.

I think I heard women's basketball is having it's first sellout since 2009. You really just have to win and the fanbase isn't so bad. I have little doubt a gem of a hire could ressurect this program. Most hires aren't gems, though. We made that type of hire twice in a row, but it's been over...

We played two quality opponents all year where Mateer wasn't in a brace, and Burks went for over 100 yards in both games (UM, Alabama). Nobody suffered more from Mateer's injury than Burks. I'm not sure how anybody that watched the Alabama CFP game came away thinking he wasn't a very good player.

I have minimal optimism he will get another year.

Tell me more about how the QB1 of a playoff team will never be good enough to be QB1 on a team that makes the playoffs. You really fumbled that Ott comparison, so I'll let you try again, but be better.

Hahahahahahahaha! Yes! The backup RB that barely saw the field and the starting QB contributed the same! Let's talk about if our third string longsnapper was good enough next! What I said is that Mateer is capable of being QB1 on a playoff team...because...he was. Pretty simple. And Ott...

Sategna definitely has room to improve his draft stock, but he undoubtedly would have been drafted, and had he entered the portal, he would have drawn interest from every team in the country. My main point is that it's basically free agency with one year contracts in college football now, so...

Sategna, Kip, and Wein picking OU over NFL were all MASSIVE culture wins. As were guys like Bowman, Stutsman, and RMT in years past. I love Kip, but I truly don't know how much more the guy can put on tape beyond what he's already done. It says a lot our defenders are consistently affirming...
