I dont think our President cares if we win nattys in football. What they do like is the 50-70 million in TV money coming their way. Helps with their nice salaries and homes. Kind of like politicians.

That was true a few years back but that is no longer true, which is why you’ve seen the great run in all major sports.

I agree and almost every aspect. I somewhat agree with his approach of keeping continuity when he inherited such a dumpster fire. The last thing you want incoming recruits to think is this is a continuation of a dumpster fire with revolving coaches. In many ways, I think he's smart to keep continuity. No one said he failed. Quite opposite. He's thrived and brought our program from the abyss of apathy.
That being said, coaches or recruits at specific positions are underperforming. It can always be the recruits. I trust Coach and DW to figure it out and get it right

You seem level headed and even tempered, I was wrong in my first impression. You need to be careful who you're hangin out with though. Lol.

You said he exceeded your expectations this year. How'd he do that with none himself?

Well my bar is lower than most. Plus the schedule was deceptively weak. I'm hoping he will exceed my expectations again this year, but 7 wins? Hard to crow over such an "accomplishment".

I’m hearing he wants more money. It will be interesting seeing where he lands. I can’t see any team paying more than what we were/are.

Don't you have to play a majority of the time and be productive to get more NIL money???

I mean, every time I turn around the guy is hurt. 300 yds. and a couple of TD's??

Bye.

I don't know this but I feel like they let him go. He's had 6 TD in his career. That's not a difference maker IMO.
30 catches,67 and 34 or something like that isn't exactly lighting it up. This position, slot,can be the difference maker in this offense a la Hyatt.
We can go get someone who can replace 30 catches and 2 TD a year easily. Hell Staley may duplicate that.
We need an upgrade. Feel like the coaches see this too by letting him walk.

Bingo.
Jalin Hyatt proved you can be special in this offense if you have speed. When we matched up against upper echelon teams, only Donte had enough speed to get open, and then inconsistently.
If you want to score against the likes of OSU, you need elite speed and a dominant line. We had neither.
I’m excited to see what Boo can do on offense, but we desperately need more help. Squirrel will not be missed

Nope. We are reloading. This happened to the DB room last year. Expect an All-American candidate to transfer to Tennessee soon

We will get who we want out of spring portal and everyone will be happy again. LIke you said the 3 with NFL potential are Matthews,Staley and Boo. Just need to pick up at least 2 quality receivers in the portal. GBO

Thanks for the memories, Squirrel!

On another note, the same thing happened with our DB room last year and Heupel turned it into a strength of our team. Same will happen next year at WR.
