So, the dawgs will get swept in a fine new stadium.

I think we can win a football natty... It will probably be post-saban.
Some of you mother17ers have more issues than a Foxhall pitching staff.
Bottom line folks, is it will take more money now to compete than in the past. If you sit back and don't offer enough money the good players will go elsewhere. That is the cold hard facts.
Why? Because we aren't a blue blood brand? Look at Tennessee or Nebraska. We live in a rich recruiting region, the QB of the Dallas Cowboys happens to be an alum, have SEC privilege, and have been able to beat your LSUs/Barns/Michigan's/TAMUs, and look at Cincinnati.
There other are schools that would kill to be where we are.
Because we can't recruit elite enough talent. That's why. When you finish 25th in the country and that gets you 11/12th in the league you haven't made up any ground. We will never consistently recruit well enough to get there. My opinion. I'll gladly welcome us to prove me wrong.
I'm not nearly as concern as some of the people that post here. Shit happens
Too many State fans seem to enjoy being miserable. When have we ever had a chance to win a national championship in football? 2014? Hell, we lost 3 games. It was fun, but was never going to end holding the trophy. Our athletics have never been great. Nothing has changed in that respect.
And guess what. Our Natty last year is still just as relevant as it's ever been, no matter what OM does today or tomorrow.
Some of y'all losing your minds over what he said, but he's not wrong. We will never win a national championship in football. Especially not now. We don't recruit well enough and we sure as hell won't now with NIL. Get a grip people.
His basketball expectations are fine.
He's correct that baseball will be fine.
