I just don't get the Butch vibe from this. I will wait and see when there are more to go on than rumors. We are all jumping the gun, myself included. But I think we all saw the issues with Butch early and just wanted to ignore them. i don't see the same issues with Heupel.

I do not see any warnings with Heup but if he brings back Banks and Martinez then I might feel different.

Coach Heupel can be good. He can't be good with Banks. Keep him through Vandy and amicably part ways before the bowl game.

The part I hate as much as the actual loss is the constant yakking of every talking head out there and we know that is
inevitable. Gonna be A LOT of Spotify in the truck and Old Movies on the tube this week but that's OK........I've done that same thing for long periods in the past.

Losing to inferior opponents is the problem. There’s no good spin. I don’t even want to hear the words Sugar Bowl right now. Maybe I’ll appreciate the season later but at this moment it feels like we wasted an amazing opportunity.

We’re not even gonna make the sugar bowl so don’t worry

Heupel rules. I kinda agree here, but we still have major depth and talent issues on the defensive side. We lost banks tonight and the defense was worse than a G5 or FCS school. We need talent on that side of the ball more than anything, although I think replacing banks will also help.

Did anyone else find it a little odd it seemed like every time they showed Hooker on the sideline he was alone with a blank look on his face? I understand we only see what is shown so that’s probably not what was actually going on. But even late in the UGA game he was talking to guys and trying to fire people up

I'm sad but I have to wonder if we fire Martinez or Banks or both, do we lose the solid defensive recruits that we have?

It would likely be hard to keep the whole class together, you gotta think. We’d almost certainly lose secondary recruits, which we need more than anything right now.

Heupel either has a mutiny on his hands or the worst defense of all time (possibly both).

They say the next game is the most important game but dammit if that's not true here.

Vandy is a MUST WIN. If Tennessee loses and Milton looks like crap, then we've pretty much undone all of the good will and positive momentum that we've been building since Hooker took the reins last year.

Seems unbelievable, but a lot hangs in the balance.

Yes, he was one specifically I noticed but I thought the whole vibe was off tonight. I dont know if there is anything to the rumor but body language and team demeanor was...bad.

I did. He’s usually sitting with Milton or on the headset. Tonight he was alone.

The rumor is Jeremy Banks has been unhappy about NIL and not doing his part off the field. This week Hendon confronted him about things and it got heated.

So that’s lead to speculation the defense was pissed at Hendon & Heupel. So they didn’t come to play

It isn't over. This whole season will mean nothing if we lose to Vandy. We can still make a good bowl game of we win out. If we lose this class could come apart and or will be the beginning of the end.
