My submission for new CFP Czar:
-
Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
BlackCat replied to GreenspointTexas's topic in Football
My opinion is Tech is a better job now. - NIL support goes to Tech in a big way - Path to playoff goes to Tech in a big way - Tech has better facilities - Location, not as sure on this one. NWA is way better scenery wise but proximity to recruits seems like a wash. I think Tech, TCU, and SMU are all better jobs. Otherwise Lashlee would already have jumped to Arkansas. -

The wild and very much unverified rumors are L Riley and C Campbell have been playing footsie under the table. -
I wouldnt blame Sark for wanting to jump to the NFL. It makes sense for him. CFB is not even the same game it was when he was hired. He did a great job for us navigating uncharted waters. If he were to leave, I think he'd be remembered as the guy who stopped the bleeding and elevated us back into the tier where we belong. In the same vein, I think we are a more attractive job now than when he was hired. I think the current infrastructure behind the program is solidly top 5 in the country if not higher. It's turnkey for a new staff. I don't know who we should hire, but I wouldnt be worried about entering the carousel at all. I actually think a new entry point could attract more big money from our donor base. A lot of the worrisome unknowns about NIL and the portal have been answered at least to some extent. I'd be kind of surprised if we went hard after Lanning or Kiffin. Both carry some baggage. Don't know much about Freeman but I'd be really surprised if we couldnt get him if we want him.

Athens is an elite tier cfb destination. Between the hedges and down in a valley, the stadium atmosphere is really unique and very intimate feeling for how many people it holds. Ive never been to a night game there but I cant imagine its not spectacular. There's not a single Big 12 road trip in the same zip code.

We don't have the luxury of protecting Arch in this game. We need him out of the pocket, rolling out, and keeping the defense honest. He will need to move the chains consistently with his feet, and he's gonna get popped multiple times. Dude is gonna have to carry the offense for us to have a chance to win. We have seen the blueprint in the last 6 quarters.

Its about to get ugly in Tiger land. LSU is trying to fire him for cause after he rejected their settlement offers. He's gonna fight it. Ive heard lots of rumors about Kelly there. The typical coah stuff, getting wasted, running around on his wife , etc. But theres one rumor that involves another LSU coach's daughter or something to that affect. No clue if its true, but Id imagine of it is then he could be fired for cause over it. Going to the matresses

Will Sark build a gameplan designed to work around his shitty o-line? Will Sark have his team ready to match UGA's intensity at night in Sanford? Will Arch keep building on a growingly successful late season campaign? At least those three questions will have to be answered with a Yes for us to win this game. I think theres a good chance Arch will have a decent game but only if Sark helps him out. I dont have confidence thats going to happen. Is Sark preparing a gameplan designed to run his offense the way he wants it to be run, or is he designing one based on the realities of our personnel and UGA's strengths/weaknesses? This game will be won or lost before we even get on the plane.

I dont think Gerry is saying we shouldnt take any portal OL. I think hes just relaying what hes gathered about Flood over the years. Flood thinks bringing in portal players messes with the OL room. Im guessing its based on the development timelines he gives his guys. Gerry and Bobby have mentioned it several times in the past. Of course, that seems like crazy talk after Flood's unit is the grenade that went off inside our season. -
It really all depends on Sark and his game plan. Is he going to let his ego win out and force a square peg into a round hole? Or is he going to spread things out, simplify the blocking schemes, and get the ball out of Arch's hands quickly? I just have this feeling he's going to want to use his offense against Kirby and the results will be predictable.

Cook showed up and took his spot on day one. Thats why he transferred.

Dabo. Yikes.

I dont look at it as good or bad. Can the position group do their job at a level that will contribute to winning a championship? Thats gotta be the standard. OL last year did not meet that standard.
