    Ole Miss was favored and has better talent.

    Whichever one Scott Stricklin picks will be the wrong one. That is the only thing that is certain!

    Folks will disagree no matter what he does, whiners whine, that’s for sure.

    He should not be allowed to do anything! Would you trust SS with $1?

    It was an upset. Zook gave Saban his only loss in 2003 at Red Stick.

    I’m warming up to Cignetti. Didn’t realize he was Saban’s first recruiting coordinator at Bama. Dude says all the right things in this interview.

    I don’t know that the checkbooks don’t have more day so than the AD . They certainly decide if he keeps his job or not.

    He’s a perfectly okay coach. Thats why he’s a disaster. I’d rather us shoot for the moon and fail then just get an 8 win guy

    “Media would certainly love Kiffin in Gainesville from Day 1.” What media are there in Gainesville? Brockway, Whitley, and…?

    Don't know anymore, but it would be a national story imo.

    So many narratives and historical references that don't mean shit in 2024. Lets look at the 2024 talent composite: https://247sports.com/season/2024-football/collegeteamtalentcomposite/

    20. Ole Miss
    21. USCe
    24. UK

    The greatest overachiever of modern college football (if the stories are to be believed) Mark Stoops managed to beat a team 4 spots ahead of him by 3 on the road and lose to a team 3 spots ahead by 25 at home. UK is 1-2 in the SEC right now, Napier is 1-1. This is madness.

    Kentucky does not have the horses, but for 4 years, they have played with more physicality than Florida and they were more physical than Georgia when they played. That is the truth and it makes me feel like I'm in the upside down world. Are cats and dogs having sex?

    We would be a very physical football team, if Stoops were our coach and that is 90% of the battle.

    The more I learn about him, the more I like him. I think the only negative I've seen so far is his age. We would be getting the better part of a decade at most. But whatever, anything to get us out of the dreary last 15 years.

    Good to know they give a damn. Had a lot of us fooled.
