Dinkins has been out since the first game. I think the same thing happened last year. Hurt two years in a row.Quote:

I wouldn't say he's a starter candidate or anything, but he's better than a lot of the guys currently in that room.
It's incredibly frustrating. We're not getting proven head coaches, but we are not in such a bad position that we have to pair first time Head Coaches with first time or even inexperienced coordinators.Quote:

I liked Arnett, but being a young first time head coach and bringing in an inexperienced OC to completely change the offensive scheme when you have an offensive roster full of upper classmen doesn't even qualify as arrogant. It's just stupid. He took what was already a difficult situation and made it impossible to succeed.
Guys I mean no disrepect, but let's try to keep this to transfer portal stuff. I get we're all pissed with the defense, but let's try to post about it in the 583 other threads discussing it.
We gave up a season high for points in an SEC game for TN, Georgia QB broke records against, Arkansas QB went off, us, etc. etc. we haven't gotten better, our overall ranking in defense has gotten worse actually. It's fallen like 9 spots since earlier this season. We are bottom 6 in college football now.Quote:

Scooba is going to pin it in the next week or so. It will be pinned by the time the portal officially opens on December 9. Although I imagine next Sunday we will start to see a lot of names say they are entering.Quote:

This is correct / average at skill positions with GOOD in the trenches gives you a chance in every game.Quote:

Like I said the other day, like his game. I do not believe he starts for us, but he is a long athletic corner. It is a solid first pickup. Now we need about 20 more defensive players.Quote:

Colorado, Arizona State and Georgia Tech are examples.Quote:
