  1. Nicole’s made up information from “sources” are just her own conjecture from reading articles and message board post.
  2. It would make no sense for him to take a reduced buyout that could still be revised if he gets another job. Any agent that would agree to that shouldn’t have their job.
  3. Well now we’d also have to combat how much longer Sark will coach here after the rumors from this weekend. But we should give Lamar Brown whatever he wants and tells him he has the chance to come in and compete for a starting spot immediately.
  4. With all the coaches being fired we should be able to put together an average OL for next season through the transfer portal.
  5. It was time for Mack to go but afterwards we were basically bottom feeders in the college football landscape for a decade plus. Outside of his first season Sark hasn’t given us 5-7 seasons, in fact I can’t recall a game we’ve been blown out/dominated since that Arkansas game. All I’m saying is it isn’t a given anyone comes in and makes us immediately better. Based on where we are currently with the current roster I feel it’s a bit premature to be calling for Sark’s dismissal.
  6. This group collectively plays like a bunch of pussies that would rather not have to make contact with a defender if they don’t have to. If you are going to recruit large human beings because that is your preference at least make sure they are the mean type that wants to destroy defenders. You can normally find our OL backpedaling until they are pushed on their ass.
  7. 4th Q yesterday Sark simplified the offense which allowed him to sling it without having to process what was happening. Now we can argue that is the offense we should primarily run but that isn’t Sarks preference for better or worse. Arch needs to prove it himself in film study. That is where he is lacking. I don’t think it is a confidence issue. Case McCoy was limited athletically and as a football player, but he knew how to read a defense and where the ball should go. Arch will be a much better player if he dedicates himself to that aspect of the game.
  8. The team as a whole has to play tougher next week. Hopefully finally being back at home will help.
  9. Back to back playoff appearances with a team that is currently 6-2 and while ugly still in playoff contention and some of you are ready to move on? I mean did some of you just become fans in 2020? We should have expected this team to take a step back due to lack of experience on both sides of the ball. It’s generally a young team. A lot of the blame for this season so far does lay at Sark’s feet but thinking we’ll get lucky and hire someone that can put the icing on the cake Sark baked seems like a pretty lofty expectation to me.
  10. Missed the game yesterday, watched the condensed version this morning. Manning had a good game. But I never would have expected a kid from that family to not be a student of the game. His anticipation pre and post snap is severely lacking. I know kids are different these days but Arch needs to put in more work in the classroom. The athletic ability is there. Wingo with two bad drops. Livingstone with 1. RBs were decent with what they had to work with. The OL is a bunch of backpedaling pussies that don’t like contact, except maybe DJ Campbell. I wouldn’t be opposed to 5 new starters next year. The DL played well. LBs were good I knew Lebby’s offense would give our soft playing secondary trouble. Gilbeau at least has to start tackling better. Niblett is a real threat. Sark needs to get him more plays that put him in space.
  11. I don’t think he has fully returned to his pre-injury form. He has been playing but I wonder if he has the speed for the Miss St WRs.
  12. Sark has a tendency to treat games he thinks we will win by default as scrimmages/extended practices. His play calling vs OU and then vs Kentucky were night and day. I’m not sure what we are in for against Miss St. I don’t think Sark’s play calling has been an issue in big games we have lost so he knows when to dial it in. My biggest issue with him is he doesn’t seem to understand the effects it has on the offense. I’m not sure why he can’t just stick to the things his offense can do well vs trying to make them execute things they aren’t capable of. I’m sure he tells himself if they just would have made that block, or if Arch makes the right read or better throw. He doesn’t understand the chances of those things happening at this point in the season are very low.
  13. He still doesn’t seem to understand dilly dallying around with the offense during games we should win be default does not help this team or it’s QB. Nor does it instill any confidence.
  14. Nobody on offense plays with any force or “want to”. There is not a single offensive player that is dominating there match up on a game to game basis despite likely being more athletic and a better player than the opponent. Miami lost the other night but they had a kid that should still be in high school playing with more aggression than anything I’ve seen from any player on our offense. Not sure what the deal is there, but the entire offense plays with no confidence.
  15. Seems to me the kid doesn’t trust what he is seeing on the field and/or doesn’t trust his ability throwing the ball. I want to think most of that is mental but maybe the kid just doesn’t have it. I would have never expected this train wreck out of a Manning.
  16. To think some of you were worried Arch would only be here one more year and he is going to end up being 5th year senior here.
  17. One of the worst pleasing wins ever. Hats off to the defense.
  18. Win or lose this is a total embarrassment.
  19. That was a bullshit DPI. The ball wasn’t catchable, and if it was Gilbeau’s timing would have had probably been right on time.
  20. We haven’t had a real game changer at QB since Colt. I’m starting to wonder when luck will finally swing our way.
  21. This offense is lifeless and there is plenty of blame to go around.
  22. He hasn’t returned to his pre injury form. I’d like to see him come back next year. Hopefully he is back to form and we could use his veteran presence in the secondary.
  23. Just gotta hope Brooks continues to get better. Not sure why we won’t play Robertson at C unless Hutson is hurt. And why Chatman didn’t get a shot at LG if he is the next man up at T.
