Patience and time is all that will fix this.
Neither of which seems to be likely given around here.

People need to realize how bad the talent level on this team is right now and the conference we are in. Not just say it but understand it.

They then need to step back and give our coach some time.

They also need to stop talking about Saban. Saban was the exception, not the norm for rebuilding a program.

Why do you feel that a coach should take up for a player who isn't fulfilling his obligation to the coaches and his team. I think accountability is a good thing. Bray was guilty several times of immature behavior.

Because Dooley calling Bray out sure did the trick?

I'll never boo this program. Anyone that considers themselves a fan that does boo should reconsider.

Please don't bring your boring NFL habits to the greatest game on the planet.

Accepting the truth is a difficult thing to do.
Anyone that thinks that talent wise we are on par with bama, LSU, or even Georgia is just lying to themselves.

The thing is, I can't recall ever seeing anyone on this site claim that we have as much talent as Alabama, LSU, or Georgia (unless we're counting one of those classic post-signing day threads that declare "stars don't matter, Johnny Manziel was a 3 star and look at how many of those we got..."). But I keep seeing people suggest that other people think that.

What I hope we all can agree on is that we had the talent to whip S. Alabama and we didn't.

Purely out of curiosity, who do you consider the norm?

No...but as a fan I appreciate a coach that doesn't try to defend a player's repeated juvenile behavior.

Yep. People claim in the biggest negavol on the site when I claim how bad we are. Its just fact!

No. You are just wrong for claiming they are worse than they are.

No one I know of questions whether the team has problems. You go WAY beyond a reasonable assessment of the problems to claiming everything is bad.

Reality for me is that I just can't get the same excitement that I used to get when John Ward was calling the games. Go ahead and flame on
