We are the largest collection of whiners and impatient "know-it-alls" in sports. Don't tell me "all" fanbases are that way. That's an "excuse" for our behavior. I thought some of you were all about "no excuses." We lost to the better team. Yes, it probably should have been closer. I'm sure mistakes were made from coaches and players. Obviously defense needs some changes. What are those changes? Who knows? It's not always coaches. That's easy and lazy as an "excuse." I'm NOT defending the coaching and not defending the players. I'm a "fan" that wishes my beloved team did better in a few games this season. Do I think the season is a failure.? NOT BY ANY STRETCH! Do I want another championship? ABSOLUTELY! Look how "FAAR 'EM ALL" has worked out for us for the last 2 decades. Were the firings warranted? ABSOLUTELY! But it's not all sunshine and rainbows when we do make the change. Get over yourselves and enjoy the game. Oh wait, I know, I know. "But he makes millions of dollars." Sure does. It's the market. Get over yourselves and enjoy watching glorified recess!

If you don't want to hear the truth that's on you.

Bama fans shoot each other and poison trees
Gov DeSantis tweeted about us beating them in the Swamp
UGA fans bark in your face and think Mike Bobo is horrible.

Fans with programs worth a damn have high expectations and have idiots that do stupid things.

You don't follow the Ohio State, Notre Dame, or Clemson fan bases, do you.

If you listened to the post-game interview with CJH, you could hear the pain and disappointment he felt. He brought us from 3-8.
Is he perfect? No, but no one is. I do agree that there needs to be big changes on the defensive side of the ball. We need more and better players and better coaching to develop the players. I am not sure what coaching changes need to be made but our head coach is not one of the changes that need to be made. I can remember what it was like with Butch, Dooley, and Pruitt. We could do much worse than what we have.

We aren’t that much better. Some fans want to run off a coach who brought us back from the dead and has averaged 10 wins a year because we got smoked by a playoff team.

No, we want a coach who will fight for the team, get on players and coaches when needed, hire a real DC and OL and LB coach. Have something real to say at press conference instead of stupid coach speak. You let him win 7-8 games next year and he will see some real heat. He's had a easier schedule the last 2 years, not from now on

Exactly....Go read other boards after loses and even close wins. I can assure you Tennessee doesn't own the trademark on anything you see or read on this site. Good grief...some posters are as soft as our football team is. Grow a set or go start a marching band forum.

ALL fanbase are this way. Last year, Alabama fans literally bitched about what Deboer wore on Gameday. And yes, our particular circumstance is absolutely coaching. If you don't think so, go watch Heupel's presser yesterday and watch what Aguilar said about practice. That will chanyyour mind.
