Is it wrong to say I'm still not sold on Willie? I've not called for firing Banks, but I have WM. Hadden is getting better, but not sold on our secondary yet.

History shows teams that beat Saban get shellacked by him the next year.

History also shows the curve in declining coaches by age. He is the greatest but eventually it catches up. He is different than Spurrier and Fulmer in terms of staying power, but eventually it starts going the other way.

He's absolute trash. And we've been making far better QBs look worse.

He’s a top 15 QB , by the numbers so far in 2023. Just below Caleb Williams and BO Nix who come in at 11&13.
So your statement is ignorant.
And none of the QB’s we’ve played are in the top 15 .
So the numbers show the above post is absolutely trash and ignorant.

If that’s your opinion you’re 100% entitled to it. I’m not going to argue with you because you have nothing to back up what you state.

On a good note: he’s thrown an interception in his last 3 games.

I'm taking somebody to hit a HR in the ALCS, game, tonight. I think both starters will give up one, the question is..... Can I choose the right hitter(s) ?

odds boots on verlander to have 6 strikeouts and Yordan to have a RBI..pick which one you think is going to happen…if I had to pick though on both sides it will come from someone at the top of the lineup…I’d take Garcia for Texas and Abreu or Alvarez for Houston…the only player to record a home run against Montgomery is Maldonado (2) so TIFWIW.good luck

That's not true...I said sevaral times that I thought they would stalemate us, and thus we would not run wild like we did against USC. I said Joe and Co would have to play a great game for us to win and open up the running game.

That was wrong...we ran wild anyway, and that and two huge special teams plays, and good defense, and the crowd won the game despite Joe and the recievers sucking even worse than usual.

So please tell CJH that he doesn’t have to prove your predictions wrong. 😂

It's a losing battle. One account against hunnerts of thousands. What he's done ON THE FIELD the past couple of games spoke louder with little to no blowback.

Understand. Was the way we were raised. Difference is if we'd have had a world wide outlet at our fingertips we likely would have said some things too. Noone will care what he says if he keeps it up, like ya said, on the field.

I know he's frustrated me at times and elated at others but definitely shouldn't be booed at home!

Joe will make some plays. We win at least 9, IMO.

Still at 8...but surely to goodness Joe Milton has at least ONE great performance in him...even Levis and Richardson had good-great games....hell even Jarret freakin Gaurantano had a couple of really good games.

Heading into 21 we all thought he would be the best receiver in the offense. He was just in his head/didn't work hard

Sure we didn't think he'd be running wide open all over the field, but Nimrod has not flashed the same speed or athleticism.

Average size, average athleticism.

Hyatt, Velus, Tillman and Bru all have great size, speed or athleticism.

Nimrod could be good, but I just don't see him being a gamebreaker because of his physical ability. He may become great at route running. I'll hold out hope for that. Otherwise he's no different than Holiday, Callaway or Merril.

He is in his 6th game as a redshirt freshman. Many receivers do nothing till their 3rd year.

There were multiple times through the year I’d bet Acuna, Riley or Olson and it would always be the one guy I didn’t bet lol

Always!…I’m seeing a no name guy right now with nice odds who’s climbed the chart which is telling Mitch garver at 390+ I’d take that
