This is the main reason I think we need to pull the plug unless we make a quantum leap in improvement. Moral victories don't count down the stretch IMO.

And I don't trust what currently going on behind the scenes (which is becoming pretty obvious IMO) to change drastically. The "TEAM" includes coaches and admin too. Now I have no inside knowledge but that is what I'm gleaning from these boards and then we are also getting that kind of product on the field too.

I agree. Zach is a good guy I think and a pretty decent DC. But the position he's been placed in is extremely difficult for anyone to handle. Takes a lot of experience to do so well. Takes someone who knows and is brutally honest about what he's good at, what he ain't, and knows how to to find folks that are good at the things he ain't good at. And it also takes someone who has a sensitive nose to smelling smoke being blown up his ass. (Or a sensitive asshole LOL).

THIS^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And although I've said wait until the end of the season, if we get blown out by Kentucky, and I mean blowout (35-13), cut the ****ing cord and move on. Hughes, as mentioned before, can be the interim and we move on with maximum effort.

You can mark chadwell off the list. It?s not happening

There's a lot of names people are hopeful for they can mark off. Just hope we can find another Mullen as far as results. It's a crap shoot. There isn't one guy out there that you can say, yes that guy will 100% work here. Didn't know it w Mullen, it worked. Didn't know it w moorhead, it didn't.

It is not many.

This all day. For a QB go get the guy from W Michigan before Lane does.

I completely agree ... it is a crapshoot. Just wanna get the odds as much in our favor as we can, as best we can. Deep research and probing questions are required on this one IMO.

Maybe we can roll the dice on Dabo. Now there's a coach who can also do a lot more with less. Selmon call him up and say "Hey Dabo, we hearing over here your fans think you slipping and have no appreciation for you winning 11 last year. Come over here and win 8 consistently, maybe 9 or 10 here and there, and we'll make sure our fans will love you forever" *****

Of course some of our folks would be trashing him too LOL.

ETA: Clemson fans done become like Bama fans. The world practically ends of they lose occasionally.

Lots (some would say too much) of conjecture about the remainder of this season, the off season and next season.

How about we take a breath and live in the moment called Saturday's game.

I'd roll with Herman, Briles, or Lebby. None of those are unreasonable possibilities right now.

Why is that? He would be an A+ hire. He won at multiple spots with a talent deficit

The money required to get him and speculation that he likely will sit where he is at until he gets a bigger profile offer.

Tom Herman may also want to sit tight for a moment , enjoying life in Boca, and wait on the right jump. Boca v. Starkville type thing.

Very possible and where he is at with his personal life and his family may also play a part as well.
