I hope you are right. I like KT. But judging from what we saw and what some have heard, its hard to believe that if it was close that KT wouldnt be the guy esp in the bowl when Fitz decided to do his own thing

The knower of all knowledge that is wrong, or you must see such truth through maroon colored glasses for it to be so.

Homedawg doesn't like KT. He does like 13 year old middle schoolers though.

I think several of you need to go back and watch the 3 games KT played in again. Moorhead has been stubborn and wrong about a lot of things so it shouldn't shock anyone right now that he's also wrong about KT.

Says the guy who said there would be no way we would win 8 this year. What do you bring to this board except a bunch of overblown meltdowns and Braves news?

Looks as if I was wrong for once.

I still stick to my assessments. I saw guys running open all year, but a QB who was a 1/2 read guy not get it to them. I saw a QB who worried more about his partying and worrying about his rushing record then making the correct calls. I also saw three plays where if a guy makes a play, we win games. That's a fact, bud.

I was at State with both Dak and Fitz and everyone who was up there with both of them know exactly where I am getting at. There is a reason Dak's guys loved him and Fitz's guys could careless about him.

There's a trade off you're right, and we traded a 10 win season in this year for what we got. Hopefully its worth it next year

---

I think part of it was the fact that it was a unique situation where you have a guy that while erratic on and off the field he has done a lot of good things at MSU. He was coming off of an injury and also had a shot to set a SEC record for rushing by a QB. He was the guy that MSU was promoting. But he also didn't fit the offense and got suspended the first game of the year. Maybe Joe doesn't trust KT either- regardless I think benching Nick could have been a mistake long term if you are talking about optics and QB recruiting.

---

I agree that you have to get more talent to fix that and make it more consistent. But our run/pass ratio was basically the same in 2018 as it was in 2017. The main difference I saw on paper was we actually increased our QB runs by 12% compared to 2017.

I don't think that Auburn fans and A&M fans demand that the coach to go to a run heavy offense because of it though. Or use that as an example of the coach not running a system that fits the personnel. Our fans tend to go to extremes because of one play that doesn't work out for us.

Now did Moorhead play to win against Iowa? No he didn?t, he played not to lose. But at the end of the day he got his guys in a position to win that game and the players did execute at all. He had guys in position to make plays against FL and they didn?t execute.

We make those two plays and we?re 10-2 and everyone is happy.

This is exactly what I saw. You can see the wide open receivers very obviously in person. I mean like no one in the area code. And then Nick throws it into triple coverage. And while I don't hang out with Fitz- him getting suspended for game one said a lot to me. No matter what he did- it shows lack of focus, lack of responsibility, and immaturity. And that's our "captain".

The encouraging thing to me is as Joe brings in players that fit his system the level of execution should get better. And those two almost catches then become completions.

---

With what we lose, if we go 8-4 again, it will be a miracle and he would likely get another 2 years after next. If we go 6-6, and barely make some bowl, then he would likely get 1 more year after next. JMHO.

Fitz went under center 4-6 times a game with Mullen. I mean seriously, worked play action off of it and everything. ATrain worked off of fitz under center too. Seriously 4-6 plays a game average. Easily 4-6 a game. Did you even watch our team in 2017? Hell we went under center 12 snaps against Bama at home last time. Did you miss that game?

Voted captain prior to his suspension. Sure wish they made Abram our captain.

I don't know if KT will save Jo, but he'll be a better fit then Fitz. JoMo was too bullheaded... He wouldn't coach to his team's strengths, while slowly installing his offense. I wanted a 10+ win season to, but if we're honest it was gonna be a learning curve for the team as a whole. My biggest gripes with JoMo were not preparing backup QBs and playing A-train more, when everyone could see Hill and our left tackle suck at pass blocking.

The SFA film was not good, especially most of the third quarter.

OH HELL NO! don't start this shit again....Fat ass is what he is a nice person who 17'd up our season and sucks as a head coach. I've been on his ass all year and took heat for it. You 17ers get what you deserve 2 more seasons of shit show. in the end you will be just as sick of him as Rick Ray and Crooms. Its just amazing to me so many of you cant see the light until the train smashes you Butt.

Cohen continues to hire Type B personalities because he likes them & they are easy to control.

Cohen won't ever reach his ceiling as an AD until he hires coaches that resemble him. Type A mofos that do their own thing.

But I have seen BankerDog and a couple of other posters say we are 2 dropped passes away from 10-2 and that does piss me off. It's a stupid statement. And that's what I was replying too.

I hope to hell that we can finish strong in recruiting and Joe can be smart enough to tweak his system. I've never pulled against MSU in my life and I never will. As far as being right, I usually am.

Bama was the #2 team in the country. LSU destroyed a 27 win streaking top 10 UCF, beat UGA, finished #6. Auburn beat Washington, LSU, and absolutely annihilated their bowl team. A&M played very good against Clemson and Bama, beat Kentucky, and like Auburn annihilated their bowl team.

OM and Arky were trash, but the West wasn't a joke this year. Even then we only lost to Bama and #6 LSU, going 4-2 vs the West. Playing @ the best Kentucky team in history and against the best UF team since early Muschamp were what brought us down.

This continues to be the reason I think he bungled the baseball search. But I hope Lemonis proves me wrong.

Nitpicking a 473 total yard 7 TD performance in a 63-6 blowout should make you feel bad. 7 touchdowns bruv.
