Arky about to go 8-4. Two straight 2-10's with zero SEC wins two years before Pittman arrives. 3-7 in the SEC last season, but competitive in all but a couple games.

Vols/Heup about to go 7-5 against one of the the toughest schedules in the land with the officials cheating them out of two W's. Also after a 3-7 season.

Who did the "experts" say were the least qualified HC hires in the SEC during their hiring years? Yep - Pittman and Heup.

Lesson - pay zero attention to experts. Trust your own eyes and understanding of the game.

Pittman doing so well is bizarre to me. But good for Arky. Just funny how Chad Morris flopped so hard and Pittman has been phenomenal

He has looked better recently in the small amount of time he has played…. Hopefully that is a good sign he is figuring it out.

It would be best for us if Hooker comes back one year and gets drafted high. Then Milton starts for a year and gets drafted high to lead into Jackson.

Morris was a bad culture and scheme fit for Arky and their type roster talent. Bad hire by the AD.

Despite the lack of actual OC experience, Pittman has the understanding of the game of an OC. Add in the players absolutely love the guy and will do anything he asks wherever he's been.

Watched a lot of coaching clinic video of him from his UNC assistant coaching days. He just knows football on both sides of the ball. Probably tops out with 9-10 wins in a good year at Arky due to the roster talent. But they should be very happy with that.

All Evans had to do was focus on school for 1 to 2 years and then he could play football the rest of his life. A little hard work up front for a lifetime of money and security.

Such a shame.

I mean...he still can lol. From an NFL perspective - nothing has changed for him. He may not get drafted, but he definitely seems NFL quality and should be able to make a roster in 1-2 years.

Might as well go straight to getting healthy and prepping for the combine. Best of luck to him.

Which is what I said earlier in the year when everyone was calling for Bailey. He just didn't fit

I’m still skeptical on Milton but he has looked better recently in mop up duty and I hope he can get it all figured out in time.

If he gets a combine invite, which he won’t.

It's good he can sit back and watch Hooker doing the things Heupel teaches. He can learn what's expected and how to play in this system. I hope it works.

okay so we know our coaching staff can make the most of what they have, can coach their rears off, the players love them, and they can develop kids .... But what I haven't seen yet is their ability to RECRUIT, which is one of the keys to being successful in the SEC... I don't think they get it coming from UCF... I hope they don't think they will just keep maximizing what they have and it will all work out... we need talent at every position, and talent is currently being scooped up and going elsewhere... to schools we whipped...
unless they know something we don't and have agreements with portal kids and some silent commits, they need to step it up in a major way... This is one of things I was worried about when they announced the hire... I hope he proves me wrong, but right now at this point in the year, I am certainly not getting a good feeling...

Isn't this like the 10th times you have posted about your displeasure with the staff's recruiting? Someone que the dead horse beating thingy. lol

To be fair, they only beat 2 teams with a winning record. They played Texas; we played Pitt. That’s the difference in the same record. But, you have to give him credit-he hired 2 good coordinators.
