So is everyone feeling wooly this morning?

[dawgday166]

I'll say it again. B/c this is such a weird, ****ed up year we are going to see a very unusual college football season. I think we will be one of the teams to come out of nowhere and crack the top 10.

And:

Top 10 huh? You been getting dano to run your simulations for you? *****

[Turfdawg67]

I can easily see how easy it could be for Hill to go 1000/1000

Easy there...

[Turfdawg67]

This is absolutely the truth a leopard don't change his spots. I stay by my words the day we hired leach we will win 9 or more games.

This statement will be parlayed into "everyone on this board" by a few IF Leach stumbles in year one.

WOOL WOOL WOOL WOOL WOOL

Nah, the World Health Organization has been running the numbers for me. So you know it's spot on. ***

I've got us with 10 wins. As of this point my 2020 predictions seem to be spot on.

[ZedFedder]

Yeah, we may need to pump the brakes. I’m excited but...

I'll probably see some moron Ole Miss fan on Twitter saying Todd4State said MSU was going 12-0 this year!

I figured it was either dano or Fauci *****

In your own mind maybe haha. You way off on a lot of stuff. You probably running on a par to last year's football predictions.

[Bdawg]

Sure, he just hasn't run the ball in 20 years so I doubt he'll start now

the RTGDF guys are going to have just accept reality with Leach. If you don't, you'll die a long, painful death. Just accept that we're going to throw it every down & be excited when we runs it.

All those short swing passes you are going to see is pretty much an extended handoff. They just happen to go in the passing category. The RTGDF guys will just have to take solace in this and just consider these runs when they see it.

[Dawgology]

I think anything over 6 wins NEXT year is gravy. New HC, new DC, new QB, whole new system. That will take some adjustment time. Luckily we have 4 winnable games to start the season to get things moving. With that said those 4 “winnable games” we are probably still going to be working things out which could lead to a slip-up. I’m hopeful that in year 2 and 3 though we will be able to start maintaining an 8 win floor. If we somehow win 8-10 next year then...oh boy...we are in for a ride.

[Duckdog]

Dan did better than that

Like what. I already linked my rough guess for covid and as far as predictions made in that thread I don't see too many others nailing how this would go quite like me.

I was wrong for believing a kid could bring the element that I thought we had long been missing at MSU. Same element people think the Costello kid can bring. Once MSU has that QB that can make all these decisions presnap it will take us to uncharted waters.

[IMissJack]

Still worried about depth on D.

Won't need a D when we go for it on 4th and kick on sides every time.**

Alright having all this wool, just think if we had hired Leach instead of moorehead. 2017 would have been crazy

Unpopular opinion: We would have looked roughly the same offensively. Leach's system would not mesh with Fitzgerald at QB. Fitz is a very good athlete but not very good at making reads. A system that gave him full autonomy would not have been good for him. He needed a playcaller and just run the play as drawn up. Mullen stays for one more season and we go 11-1. I don't know any coach we could have called up that would have done anything similar with that personnel.

My football wet dream is that guy from Arkansas's coaching philosophy creeps up into the higher ranks. Football is close to a saber metrics type revolution of thinking. Math ain't everything in football, but it should be a bigger chunk of the pie.

Agree with Fitz as QB looks the same. But if we bring in Gardner Minshew...oh my gosh I can only imagine. However, I don?t know if that would?ve happened because the outcry for replacing Fitz with him would?ve been outrageous, and at the time perhaps justifiably so
