    Mine aren’t, fwiw. You deleted your post. All you had to do was edit it and drop your comments down out of the box with mine.

    Thats all true but it comes down simply to cash that isnt being spent on recruiting. We lost players at tge end to cash. Of coursse the winning thing is a problem and it costs extra to go to a subpar record. Right now our boosters aren't writing checks for an uncertain coach.

    Sounds possible, but, which players did we lose at the end to cash?

    Really?

    CBN's 2022 transition class had issues, but I don't see how you can question the quality/quantity of the 2023 and 2024 classes?!?

    Including Fr. Zandamela, CBN signed ten (10!) HS OL in the last two classes. Half are high rated 4* and the others are physically talented prospects. Kearney, Westphal and Zandamela are blue chip prospects as highly rated as CM’s OL guys not named Pouncey. Do you have an issue with 3* prospects like Knijeah Harris?

    CBN has also filled the gaps with quality transfers like BCD, who filled the black hole of CBN’s OL at RT.

    So, specifically what is your issue with the HS OL talent?

    It would have been nice to have landed okunola and Mauigoa. Still need to land more top tier guys to compete with big boys. Coming in at 50 won’t get that done. We haven’t landed a 5 star offensive lineman since martez ivey.

    If BN had just hired an OC before the season. Being stubborn when you should have learned after 2 seasons that's what is needed is just plain stupid.

    We are 1-10 against UGA, Tennessee, LSU, FSU, and Miami in the last 2+ seasons. Not good.

    When I did a quick scan I didn’t see it, now I do. You didn’t edit it though. Why not? It still looks like I said what you said, and didn’t.

    The situation that we are now in with the QBs hurt, I do not care if the coach is Spurrier, Meyer, or Saban, we are 100% not beating the next 3 teams with what we have a QB now.

    With DJ, I believe we might have won today. I believe we could have won 7-8 games. The team has improved. Our only hope is that DJ can come back quickly.

    I believed that the BN's magic number was going to be 6 wins. It is not what I want, but that was probably going to be the reality.

    Now, if DJ is out for the year, BN has a built in excuse. I lost two starting QBs and the team was competitive with top teams in the country the last few weeks. We will probably lose the rest of our games and they will keep him because of this.

    This is a nightmare situation that we will have to see what 2025 brings with literally a tougher schedule next season.

    You are free to disagree, I'll keep the receipt
