Seeing that Arion Carter is out for the rest of the year doesn't make me feel very good about the rest of the season at all.

He wasn’t playing much anyways and over committed to plays many times. He is a hell of a specimen and will be starting next year, but he needs more time to learn.

Telander isn’t as athletic but he is always near the play and seems to react much better. He should be starting next to Beasley.

I've been out on Martinez for a while. Looking at the difference in our defense between home and away, I have to say I'm leaning toward Banks needing to be replaced as well. Stability comes from your head coach. Changes below him are expected to occur. If you're succeeding, coaches move up and some move on. If you're not succeeding, you replace them with coaches who will succeed.

ive been impressed, to an extent with Banks defense. in past hes showed glimpses of attacking style I like.

Since say, Kentucky. We have vanished. So, why is that?

It's not since KY. It's been every road game this year. Look at the difference between the defense at home and the defense away. It's staggering.

Everyone knew this was going to be a down year, but there are still some incredibly frustrating aspects that the staff could have easily fixed so that we dont choke games like Florida and Missouri. It is obvious we do not make halftime adjustments, or very minimal adjustments if that. That is something the staff needs to fix and work on. Another thing is the lack of development at safety, some of the botched zones on Saturday were because of the safety’s, however, we did NOTHING to fix it during the game. Our linebackers have regressed this year significantly. Idk what happened to Beasley, but It seems he has gotten worse as the season progressed. And same thing with Herring, bro runs like he has cement in his feet. And why did we not actively pursue a qb in the portal last year? We have 2 scholarship qbs, one of which isn’t ready to play yet, or so im told, and the other qb is a 6th year senior who cannot make checks at the LOS and cannot run our offense effectively. Why did we not try to get someone in to take over for Milton when he struggles if we dont want Nico to go out there? There needs to be some staff changes, particularly on the defensive side like Banks, Martinez, BJM, in that order, but also look at how bad our receiving core has been this year too, maybe Pope isnt the wr coach we thought him to be. And also, lets look at our S&C staff as well, we have been plagued with injuries the past couple of years, could some of that fall on our S&C staff?

Mississippi State loves firing coaches. Sheesh.

I mean their last coach passed away, and the guy before that left for a better job.
They've had less coaches in the last 10 years then TN has had.

Edit: I forgot about Moorehead. Still fewer coaches than TN has had in the same span.

Miss State probably saw hiring him as the most stable decision they could make and it be respectful to Leach and the players. You gave him a shot at his first head gig and it wasn't great. Probably what Tennessee should've done after Kiffin left. Was it Kippy Brown?

They must have someone lined up.

Dale Jones should've interned the year Kiffin left.

I'd make one of my patented smartass remarks, but last time I made one about officials, it ended up on Message Board Geniuses. Apparently smart people don't understand nuance and humor. Dark humor, mind you, but still humor.



Still waiting for the rat to step up and admit they submitted it to MBG.
