Yeah-it’s just that every SEC program not named Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Miss St, and Mizzou don’t accept decade plus failures.

Last season wasn’t a failure.
Today was.
Tomorrow hasn’t been written yet.
Cheer up. The sun will come out tomorrow even if it’s cloudy.
It’s still there.

We don't accept it. The problem hasn't been retaining bad coaches. It's the hiring of a new one. And I am not knocking CJH. He's still waaaaaaaaasy ahead of schedule

Compared to Butch, Pruitt, and Dooley yes. Compared to the coaches he has to beat like Kirby Smart, Saban, Kiffin, Kelly I’m not so sure. He’s .500 vs horrible coaches line Beamer and Napier. Those should be easy wins for a great coach. Don’t get wrong-he’s great by our miserable standards. Just not great by the standard set by programs that are relevant.

Nah....calling a timeout with just a few seconds on the clock down by 13 after the opposing team and coaching staff embarrassed you on national TV is childish.

You guys blow my mind
. There is literally 11 seconds on the clock and it’s 4th down and turnover on downs
 if we fired off the ball and made him take a knee we have 8 seconds inside the 30 instead of 4 left. He was hoping to get a quick score, onside kick and Hail Mary but there just wasn’t enough time. I have NO PROBLEM with him calling time out that’s not embarrassing
 yea the scuffle is embarrassing
. that decision was playing until the end and I 100% support that! You guys do realize we got the ball back and had to snap a play after the broadcast cut (we took a knee as I suspect there was only a couple seconds left
 could see it in the skycam with espn4k channel)
 no audio so I couldn’t hear who penalties were on but suspect we get a few suspensions.

He's only in year 3. Saban and Smart didn't take over the dumpster he did.

Yeah but there’s zero excuses in taking a massive step back when you have NIL and the ability to flip a whole roster like Colorado. He was lazy in recruiting transfer Oline, DB’s, and LB’s and we’re looking at four losses minimum because of it.

Also zero excuses for dropping two blowout games to terrible coaches in Beamer and Napier when either win changes the season in a significant way.

The magic is gone. let's all be honest here about that. Golesh, Hooker, Hyatt, Tillman, etc.

Heupel didn't know what to do out there without Golesh at OC and I want to see that Tim Banks fired come Monday morning!!!! Yes sir!!

Hooker and Golesh, most of all. Tillman barely played last year. We have good slot receivers, definitely not Hyatt level, they’re just not getting the ball.

Hendon always favored one rec. We were better when Tillman wasn’t out there because Hyatt got more focus from HH and he could blow games wide open. Hooker had a tendency to ignore Hyatt and force it to Tillman when both were on the field.

I think it’s obvious Banks and Martinez are not up to the challenge. Martinez has been around the SEC for a long time. He has sucked at each stop every time. They say he can recruit?

Banks is simply not getting it done. There is enough data to see that clearly.

Like all offenses . . . Heupel’s offense needs a great QB. Milton is not it and never will be. This is an 8-4 or 7-5 team with Milton and this defense.

IF Nico works out . . . Or if Coach Heupel finds a good QB in the next couple of years AND he finds a good DC . . . He will be very successful. Big IFs.
