You want to have your cake and eat it too. Can't be saying "we'll be better offensively" and as soon as we suck come back with "well what did you expect? We were picked last!"Quote:

Are you trying to kill our Blue Hairs? They complain if someone stands up.Quote:

LMAO ... in year 1 with Leach and a complete overhall with nothing but true freshmen in the backfield, Covid, SEC schedule, etc. you were all over Leach's pitiful Air Raid when it won only 4 games and ready to fire him.Quote:

ETA: Bear's 1st year at TAM bout the same situation as Leach's 1st year at MSU. He ran off an all-conference center cause he got sick of watching film of him wallowing around on the field and not blocking anybody.
Kirby did inherit some talent tho and yea, people were laughing at him.
I'm willing to give Arnett time and I do think he's handicapped at the QB position however ... whatever happened to the "I guarantee this offense will be better than the Airborne"?
We need to be better for sure. Not excusing anything. I'm just talking about the expectations portion- we were not expected to be very good by damn near everyone.
Is 0fer in the SEC circus worthy? I seriously doubt we defeat any conference team with Will standing and then falling down by himself .Quote:

It's very possible that a contract can be terminated for poor performance.
A buyout is similar to a severance package in an instance like this and it's always negotiable as well. Depends on the language in the contract of course.
As the season wears own and we continue to get hammered by everyone in the SEC.
I would imagine some of this "patience" people have will diminish. I'm almost impressed they still have some after the 3 games we have played. Maybe I am super critical, but another year of being ranked in the 100 range on both offense and defense could be a 10 year rebuild for a team like us with no real success in recent history.
We have a lot of seniors and experience on our team, but not a lot of high level talent or NFL prospects (three of our top players from last year either got drafted or transferred). Kirby likely inherited a lot of talent, similar to SloMo.Quote:
