Whats he done? Lose the 3 biggest games on the schedule so far. Inconsistent offense good defense. That was early Dooley

Nope. Dooley had the worst defense in school history. Try again. Just make **** up.

Bowl game year 1 unlike any of the others and with 70 guys. I’m impressed.

Who with a pulse did he beat. Dooley made a bowl year 1 as well

Utilizes his talent

11years ago? Who f-in cares? This staff can coach, and you are dumb if you don’t see it.

Yes they can coach. But the bottom line is we got smashed yet again and it’s sucks.

Case in point.

 

[Dudley Smith]

Some people around here acting like we were 2 TD favorites in this game and the coaches gagged up a sure win. This place is just a beating.

 

[VolMike16]

Some of your posts make you seem terminally stupid.

Dooley won 4 SEC games in 3 years. Heupel is about to win his 3rd in year 1. Dudes a buffoon.

Year 3. Year 1 and 2 under Wilcox they were actually decent. But I would expect you to remember that because that would mean you were admitting youre wrong.

 

[Smyrna ATL Vol]

Oh yeah the refs caused us to lose by 4 TDs

Didn’t say that. But it gave them seven on a fumble we recovered. And we could have kept it closer if we punt on thirty instead of getting sacked. But Heup didn’t care if he lost by 14 or 28. It doesn’t matter.

Dude stop with the Dooley comparison. Dooley was left with a dream roster compared to Heupel. Dooley was left with an NFL OL.

 

[NMVol]

Bye week should give us plenty of time to get our heads together.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I’m all in. GBFO!

It seems like literally every poster I actually respect feels this way..I don't see how there are any idiots left that can't see the difference in this program.

 

[gainesvol82]

Heupel was dealt the worst hand of any coach we have hired in over 40 years and has done better than anyone since Kiffin's year here.

 

[jakez4ut]

Yeah all 3 of those games have been frustrating. However, if you told me at the beginning of the year we would Lose to 2 Heisman finalist QB’s by a combined 12 points and play Bama to the 4th so well that it looked like Saban was about to have a heart attack, I wouldn’t have believed you.

Yeah. I get that. And logically I don't disagree. Doesn't change the sentiment that this is what we are, and have been, as a program the past decade plus.

And the people running our program now need to understand that.

We've had a lot of year 1's and year 0's. None have had a game that made a mark.

Wright 5*
Carvin 4*
Cooper 4*
Spraggins 3*
Mays 5*
Seems like 4 out of JH's 5 are NFL lineman

Oh ok…48, 31, 41, 41, 38, points scored in year one by our biggest rivals. The last 4 wins were against trams that were combined 13-36. Vandy and Memphis had a combined 3 wins.

Year 2, we got to 5 wins because Cincinnati was our toughest OOC game.

Facts suck.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Heupel & his staff have proven they can coach & develop guys.

But we need them to be able to recruit, cause that’s the unknown with him. And unfortunately anything outside top 25 classes will not cut it, honestly we really need them to be in the top 15 on a regular basis.

If he can just get a solid two deep roster to get us back to 8-9 win seasons, I really he will make the jump from there. He is two suckass cheating ref crews from going 8-4 with this shredded roster..

I know everybody wants to skip a step, but under the circumstances...it ain't happening.

 

[TrippieRedd]

Good news is we have time to get 100% healthy now

 

[mrmax86]

Heupel has a 98% approval rating. If you're on here posting crap like we aren't heading in the right direction, you obviously don't get it, and will make my ignore list.

That's not who we've played with lately tho.... But you knew that

 

[gainesvol82]

Ave the people running our program now need to take understand that.

Pruitt had that Auburn win in year one that people said was potentially "program changing".

I keep saying he is going to have to kill it in the portal in year 1.

Unknown sanctions, terrible last year/with doom and gloom around the program. Gonna have to win first, right now he is doing it, but we are going to need guys that can play.

So Wilcox sucks? I remember our D being in the top 25 when he was around.

 

[SpringBokVol]

I love how hard this team plays.

Basically...I have zero issues with the intangibles I've seen from this team and staff so far.

But... Jeez... It's be nice to see that effort rewarded with a win that matters.

This program has been here, several times actually, over the last 12-15 years.. And almost every time we've come up short.

At some point... We need to win a game we're really not supposed to. We need to be the team that makes the plays. Not the one makes the game changing mistakes.

Siap... Didn't expect to win. So no sin in losing this game.

But I didn't expect it to be a game going in to the 4th either. Is that a moral victory? Yeah. It is.

At some point that can't be good enough.

100% agreement on everything you said.

We are the kings of almost and woulda coulda shoulda

I say we bench the starters this week. Crazy things happen around Halloween.
