I won’t believe anything until the sock says it! 

Sock? It that you?

Every single Alabama fan I've ever met or heard from on the internet thinks he's the weakest part of Saban's staff and can't wait to get rid of him. Most say it with a lot of conviction. Meh.

Alabama fans are spoiled rotten. Look how we are after our success in the 90s, fricken 30 years ago. We still think we are elite. Bama fans just need something to complain about. Bob would be a fine choice. If we don’t get him, someone else will, and I bet he is successful there. Not saying he’s my first choice, but I’m definitely not going to go based on bama fans, they live in a different reality.

TBH, great guess.  Has some prior allegations against him though

Joe Brady?

Times are changing just like Kansas football sucking generation after generation.

No, they aren’t. Kansas will always be a bball school. Mangino was successful for a couple years too, did it change the focus? They won’t invest in football. N

One area this team has gotten better is special teams. They have been a bright spot this year

Palmer is a stud. No question

No speed, no pass rush, can’t tackle is not a recipe for a good defense. 

This may be the slowest defense in fbs. We have no speed at all

If you are talking about Palmer, you are flat out wrong. Palmer is the only reliable weapon on offense. 

No, Washington. Palmer is almost our entire offense

Been pretty dependable most the season..  that was a bad pass.

He has dropped more than he has caught. He’s had a couple good plays this year, but he has dropped some big passes

Washington should not be a receiver, dude has stone hands

I mean ... Hartzog was getting torched in the first half.

But, he still kept playing and closed out the game. That is the point, there needs to be a mental shift away from losing. He’s a freshman, he’s going to make mistakesZ he needs to learn how to win, they all do.

Ugly as it was, big win from a program perspective. Have to walk before you can run, this team needs to learn to win close games. They did it. I’ll take it.

Anyone who said shiano should be in the running for coach, this is a good look at why not. They are just giving us the game, should be up by about 21

There’s prob no reason to really watch the rest of the season, these are the easy teams we are playing now. 

How about throw it to someone other than Washington 

Looks like shiano is out coaching himself with this silly qb rotation, hope he keeps it up

II’m still upset tressel didn’t come here with  frost as his oc. That may have actually worked

Unlikely the Bengals have as successful as a season as last year.

 

Back up the brink truck for Zac Taylor.

I’d be interested, but that is less likely than urban, imo. No way he leaves the nfl, with a very young promising qb for a college job.

Urban wouldn’t be able to go out an recruit kids unless he was officially named head coach, which wouldn’t happen until the end of the season.  

They could get the deal done now, and it would be “known” he is not under contract is my point. He could hit the recruiting trail in November and have his coaching hires in mid. It would be a huge advantage

Coaching hires are always a risk. Alabama had Bear Bryant, then didn’t do squat for 15 years, and then won a natty with Gene Stallings (who was a failed NFL coach). Then after Stallings left Bama went thru multiple coaches before landing Saban (another failed NFL coach). It’s not an exact science, but thinking about a new coach is exciting. 

No it wouldn’t. 

You don’t think that if it was known tomorrow that urban was our coach next year,  it would make a difference in our recruiting? I disagree.

See Florida has been in a constant state of desperation since Urby stepped down. I don't think we can pin any Florida knee jerk reaction on the coach.

 

He was 34-15 at Florida.  They fired him because they hated his PR and they felt they should win more games.

 

I think the difference is right now Nebraska just needs to win some games.  Not saying Mullen is the guy...just pointing out his record is stable just like alot of other coaches being thrown

A Stoops or Meyer isn’t going to come in midway thru the season, so this season is going to finish with an interim head coach. Yes, this is most likely a lost season, but firing Frost could give the team a new voice to make the best of this season. 

I know they are not coming midsession, but we could know they are coming next year. That would be a huge difference in recruiting

Why does that suck?  It’s just the way the seasons go. 

I understand that, but we have another whole lost season, and there are only so many years in a life.
