Grade the job Lebby did as head coach in 2024.

I'm just glad that message boards don't make athletic decisions.

Why? Things certainly couldn't be much worse at least as it pertains to football.

For real. We'd probably be 2-10 now.

Lebby gets an D- mainly for keeping the team together even though we lost all our SEC games. Art Briles gets a D for not coming down from the stands and coach like I wanted him too

Have you ever been to Fayetteville Ark and Columbia MO. Talk about being in the middle of nowhere but Arky is recruiting alot of OOS students. Hell for that Matter Clemson is in the sticks. But Arkys marketing is huge esp on Texas. Clemson recruits heavily in the NE US. We used to call Clemson New Jersey school of engineering. It's always about what the schools do in the marketing dept and now social media.

Columbia is light years ahead of Starkville unfortunately. Fayetteville has Walmart money/influence. We are what Auburn was in the late 90s as a town, it's a pretty damning indictment on Starkville's leadership and head in our ass approach to not changing.

Guys, it's Lebby's fault that the roster was as "bad" as it is. Who cares how well a better coach would have done with this roster? A "better coach" wouldn't have had this bad of a roster in the first place.

That's like me saying that, sure I got an F on my exam, but I didn't study, and not many people would have done better without studying. Who cares? It's my own fault that I didn't study and put myself in that position to begin with!

I know that a lot of you don't like the NIL and the portal, but that doesn't mean you can just wish it away and pretend that the only way to turn a bad roster into a good one is to spend years recruiting and developing. That's just not the world we live in anymore, and there are plenty of examples of teams doing a one-offseason turnaround by using those tools.

Every P4 school in the country has more money than us. Every One. Forget about athletic budgets, this program is not going to dish out 10- 20 million every year for a bunch of dipshit players.

I'll grade it a LLLLL0LLLLL

10 Ls. 0 SEC wins.

As the Hives said - Hate to say I told you so.


I'll give lebby two redeeming things about this year. No Art Briles appearances that I saw. No internal scandals. I'm man enough to admit when he's proving me wrong about his personal character. For that I apologize. I hope to continue to be wrong here.

Now as for being an actual head coach... Please start proving me wrong.

Indiana doesn't have an outrageous budget. Good coaching, smart spending, and high effort can get us to the playoffs. Ole Miss spent an obscene amount and still ****ed it up. It's not about the money shpidaman. It's about the Mets baby.
