    Should have dropped Bregman to 7.  If he looks at another fastball down the middle, Dusty needs to slap him.

    been saying that all season. Come on Bregman, if you're going to be one of God's chosen people, then for crying out loud, act like it!

    I think it's clear what has happened. If the BMD's and Regents hadn't forced Sark on us we'd all be winning right now with Chris Del Conte's choice, James Franklin. Just Kidding. Am I? Now I'm not even sure I'm kidding.

    Apologize for the long post, but I've had it. To get recruiting back on track, the following must be addressed.

    OU, Baylor, Cincinnati, Ohio State, and other schools somehow know who are good coaches and who aren't. For some reason, our school has their thumbs up their asses during every football coaching search, assistant and head.

    The formula for offense, unless you have superior talent like Alabama, is having a running QB who also can throw well. It's obvious that you need the QB to create the numbers mismatch. Even Herman understood that. Sark's offense does not use the QB as a runner. His system will always have stops and starts until or if he figures this out, or somehow gets Alabama level talent.

    The formula for defense, unless you have superior talent, is four down lineman. They stop the run.  They pressure the QB. They penetrate the line of scrimmage. A three man front with Jack/Buck LB's gets pushed off the line from double teams or mismatches, creates massive gaps, relies on linebackers to be perfect in their reads, and is generally not as good. It's great in the NFL because, you know, they are all great players. Ash's defense performed better than anything since Orlando's first year, when he had NFL talent and the advantage of new system that hadn't been schemed against yet.

    Our boosters are worthless.

    Our players are weak, physically and mentally.

    We are not and have not recruited well along the lines. We get the four stars that have big question marks, or we don't even get enough four stars. Unfortunately, this problem takes years to fix.

    How in the hell do you get players in the door? I have no idea at this point.

     

     

     

    Franklin is a fucking dirt ball cock sucking fraud. he will never coach here

  3. I like Sark. I hope he retires here.. I'm probably in the minority, but I believe a nice guy can win here.  I, like many, thought he hired an all-star staff. But perhaps a lot of these guys aren't what we thought they were. The guy I was most excited about, PK, might not be the right fit as we head into the SEC.  I hope Sark evaluates his staff and makes the right calls, from strength and conditioning to position coaches.  In the end, I don't care if he fires the entire staff, after all if you go position by position it's hard to say where we have improved this year.  I believe he can win here. We aren't firing him in the next four years unless something about his character changes. It's going to take time to change our culture, we need some alpha dogs on this team. Everyone thinks it's Saban who drops the hammer at Bama, spoiler alert, it's not, it's the leaders on the team that demand perfection, that call out their teammates and hold them accountable.  We don't have that culture yet. And unfortunately that takes time to build.

    This L is on dropped passes and the wide receivers. We were a dropped pass away from the first top 20 win for the new coach. At this point this season is a disappointment. 

    dropped passes, shitty OL play that didn't give Casey time to hit wide open receivers and Casey just missing receivers that were wide open.  

    With an OL this bad it's just hard to execute anything.  FLOYD seems like a fraud
