    6-6 is the ceiling. Wins at home against Vandy and Arky (maybe). SC is a tossup, and they have a pretty good QB.

    People that haven’t been compelled to reply until the nonsense that was put in the field today…thoughts?

    Exactly what happened. The clock didn’t hit zeros yet …but had to jump out in front everyone to tell us how miserable his/her life was by stomping on someone else.

    Made staff changes where needed. Made roster moves where needed. Removed players from the team where his predecessors wouldn’t. When I say “evolve” …Meaning he is willing to pivot on things that don’t work. Is ok with making changes. Which was one of the cornerstone complaints about others in the past.

    But the product on the field is NOT getting better on the road…if anything worse…I get he’s made some changes, but it’s all superficial

    The first part is fair, and I’m with you on that. Change’s definitely need to continue. But when you say “superficial”, it translates as doesn’t mean much; unimportant; eye candy; smoke screen. But all that smoke screen, eye candy and unimportant stuff that has changed under BN was incredibly important 18 months ago and what everyone bitched & complained about from the last 3 guys… for nearly a decade.

    No one ‘loves’ what we’re seeing on the field. And I’m a 1000% sure Nape doesn’t either. I guess we’ll see if changes are made …but if we are expecting a new OC & ST coach on the sideline, this week or the next, then we’re being unrealistic.

    No. I've always projected that we'll win the games we score the most points in and lose the rest. So far I've been correct. I'm not a professional football analyst so I don't make projections.

    The Charlotte game and the Kentucky game showed who the 2023 under Napier are. Vandy beat Napier in 2022 and will beat him again in 2023. final record will be 3-9.

    I went 6-6 and I'll stick with that, but I can understand your prediction. I'll say this... no shot we lose to Vandy. Their defense can't stop anyone.

    Really, i guess that you were not around last season when they beat Napier and about not having defense Kentucky say Hello.

    If we lose to Vandy on homecoming, do we start the searches ? Just asking for friend.

    3-9?!? Dayum!! I consider myself a realist, but even now, I don't see ourselves going 3-9. If we lost our last eight games, I think the coaching staff and the front office would be tarred and feathered...
