After all who would have thought that hiring three career assistants in Zook, Muschamp and McElwain could have negative results for a massive program like UF? It's not the pulling the trigger on firing that makes a mess. It is the lack of seriousness in hiring. At least CBN had some history of winning as a head coach at some level, but there were red flags there also.
Right? Those guys at Georgia are idiots for hiring an assistant. They should give back their natty’s. There is no one size fits all approach. Simply buying a natty winning coach from another school is no surefire route to trophies either.
I like Cignetti, but I'd like to see how IU responds to playing better opponents. I also want to see how Napier does the rest of the season before cutting the the line of the sword of Damocles.
2-9 vs teams that finished the year ranked, and 0-3 vs teams this year that are HIGHLY likely to be ranked at seasons end. Why are we even debating this, whoopie he has 2 rather than 0 in 2.5 years. He gets 1 a year, so which of the next four is it gonna be?
I’m looking forward at the team that seems to be improving and is competing every week. You can dwell on the past if you want. We complain about lack of improvement, but then when the team improves, we look at last year to discount this year. That makes no sense.
What? Predicting 1 win in the next 4 games is because of the improvement. The team that faced Miami and aTm would soundly lose all of these upcoming games.
No magic wands or crystal balls around here. If this could be accurately predicted, everyone would have trophies piled a mile high.
Yes, but we also didn't think that they would have a combined 1 loss between them after week 8 of this season.
I just sincerely hope that if your team gets beat by the Gators, that your liver doesn't take it out on you. Be well, and be safe...
Probably < 2% chance of doing so, but just for fun, where do you think we'd rank after each win? Beat UGA - "Others receiving votes" Beat Texas - #20 Beat LSU - #15 Beat Ole Miss - #12 Beat fsu - #10
With our schedule and who we've lost to, I would say we would be ranked after beating UGA, and then knock 2-3 spots off of each of your numbers as you go down.
It's kind of fun to think about... and we have a little over a week until we crash back into reality...
I think you're right, but I'll still have zero confidence that he will ever put us on a trend/trajectory that puts us in the playoff one day.
If we do that we would be higher than 10 because we would likely knock those teams backward and behind us. I mean, we won't, but ya know...
