'21 GA OT Amarius Mims (Georgia commit)

[SweetasSoda]

All coaches can lay an egg at times. He has never had a losing season yes had some questionable losses. That’s the nature of the game. You win some and lose some. The new fandom and labeling a coach this or that is dumb. Everyone is not winning championships. Ppl hv to accept that and stop whining about 9-3 or 8-5 based on phony pre-season polls.

That would be nice. Seems like since ESPN took off all fans want their team to be "relevant." Apparently relevant is being talked about to win the championship by sports reporters. You lose a game, and the season is over.

How has he failed? Some of yawl just say stuff and without validity. Show me the man’s record per season and in the iron bowl. He does play in the best conference and division in college football. Also he continues to sign top recruiting classes and produce high draft picks. Yes there was a stretch in which he fell off with qb talent but over all Gus has proven he is a upper tier HC and done his job.

But almost all of those draft picks are on the defensive side of the ball. Speaks more about Kevin Steele than it does Gus (kudos to him for paying him and keeping I guess).

So much this. The same goes with teams. If X team doesn't make the playoffs, even if they are TOP 10, people call them trash. It's laughable how black and white teams and coaches are viewed these days. No room for "very good" and "good" anymore it seems.

Either top 2 elite or trash.

They are trash, for other reasons.

Not so fast my friend because Kevin hasn’t been the only recruiter for their defense. More to do with Gus and Gardner + Steele. Always remember a chief is only as good as his tribe’s work. This is a reason dummy failed here because he Leary’s wanted to be the biggest name in the room vs hiring Charlie Strong and others he feared would threat his seat as HC

Can’t forget how Brown and Mims have said multiple times that they’re essentially a package deal

Have not heard them say that for a couple months.

Well i mean i think it’d be weird for them to keep saying that lol to be fair

Rivals just did a true false in whether he ends up at Georgia and both analysts said true.

Said he is flirting with Bama, but they think he sticks with Georgia

Did you happen to catch names of those rivals 'Experts'? Lemme guess. Mike Farrell? Scott Kennedy? Jamie Newberg? Woody?

'Nozzles.

Sticks with a team he never committed to? Interesting take.

The only reason he still has a job is because we the fat cats are ready to fire him he pulls a rabbit out of his ass and beats saban.

He and auburn have had success we would kill for

 

[UTK]

Right now he's all Bama if you ask me

 

[Pepe]

Don't be surprised if Bowl Cut starts (if hasn't already) putting full court on Brown to flip

There's no doubt he will put on the pressure, but there is no guarantee of success

Absolutely. I was just pointing out that for a guy who supposedly made his chops coaching offense, very few of those top draft picks were on that side of the ball.

 

[Volfansince1980]

If the threshold for upper tier for coaches in the SECW 4 is losses with a good chance to upset Bama every season then Gus is def upper tier.

If upper tier is elevating a program and playing for championships, then no, Gus is not upper tier.

I see an above average program that gives Saban fits.

Yeah, he’s a gump for sure.

Gus is not a top tier coach. Lmao. Minus the 12-2 and 10-4 seasons....he's pretty much an average 8-5 coach.

That's the thing of stratification of coaches and programs...who IS top tier? You will get an argument if you say anyone except Saban and Dabo. That is 2 out of 130 fbs coaches. So it is more like a very steep pyramid, rather than 10 point percentiles or something.

Everyone else is just mediocre or trash according to many.

Minus the 8-5 last season we are pretty much a 5-7 program. He sure looks like a good coach to me.
