    I have heard a lot of reports coming out of the athletic office this week...

    Some key players have voiced their concerns over the coaching this team has gotten offensively. From what I'm hearing there is dissention and is growing. I fear he has lost the team already. I wanted him to succeed but had my doubts from the beginning. I will be there Saturday but am not optimistic at all. I truly feel this season is going to spiral out of control. I heard Moorhead gets 2 years no matter what but if we go 0-8 in the SEC I'm not so sure now. Hailstate!

    Not sure how you write this post and then say Hail State at the end.

    Posts like this do nothing but hurt our program.

    Frankly, our players need to suck it the 17 up and play for these guys.

    99, you were the primary one giving people grief who didnt automatically agree with you that state was going to blow KY and florida out of the water. In fact, you thought we were bear trolls. So why should people get behind you on this?

    Is it possible that it is offensive players not catching onto the system? He has this year and probably a 0-8 SEC record would be the only thing to keep him from not being here next year.

    Well, Pickett and the University Greys were all in for that Lee guy at that place in PA about 150 years ago and we know how that turned out.*****

    I think we need to all take vow to not make this place toxic.

    I understand that everyone is angry but we can't become toxic. It does nothing but make everything worse.

    This is 2016 all over again in the locker room. And the common denominator is the QB.

    He works in one offense and one offense only and that?s Mullen. He?s worried more about his record chase and off the field stuff then film study.

    Post on message boards do not make a damn thing toxic. 400 yards in 2 games, 1 TD in 2 games, and hardheaded Woody Mcorvery-like offensive football makes things toxic.

    FWIW I sent a couple of texts to folks I know and they do not confirm this at all. I'm more of a baseball guy but feel like they would know and nada.

    Agreee with Gun, we don't need to make this toxic...no "Forward Bulldogs" stuff. I'm as pissed as anyone and I'll be the first one to show JoMo the door if they can't get it turned around but to expect zero hiccups with a totally new staff is a bit harsh. Another thing that I haven't seen mentioned is that Fitz had zero live reps in spring, so he had (literally) two weeks to run the offense with some form of opposition...so maybe it isn't unrealistic that at some point this thing takes off.

    Oh man, I hope this isn’t true. If it is, we will fall apart and this will be worse than the croom years.

    Yeah but Longstreet was kind of against it

    I'll stick by what I've heard until proven otherwise. And yes I think we have major talent on this team we should be 5-0. This message board board has no bearing on wins or losses. But the incompetence of our head coach does. I guess we will find out this weekend.

    There were wont be a forward bulldogs, if it goes completely sideways and an 0-8 comes out of this the wheels will move and changes will be made. There are people that won't let us fall into a five year or more rebuild.

    So you think Merlin would be 3-2 with this talent?
    Almost the exact same offensive players go from averaging 27 point per game in the SEC to 6.5 ppg. Must be the talent, though.
