He was being sarcastic

Never thought I would see C34 defend Lemonis, as he has recently & this incompetent FB staff which is terrible in all areas except special teams.

I understand that. I was commenting off of that on our situation.

He's had a track record besides 2016 and he resigned before the hammer at Georgia Southern. It wasn't good. It's enough to give me pause and too really dig deep and vet his history.

Not if he doesn't win. And if OM pimp slaps us, it'll turn ugly so fast it's crazy. It's all about wins. And I don't care if Selmon is his buddy. Expectations were high, tickets sold, 8 homes games & to fail is the end. Much easier schedule than last year too with the SEC way down. Lose and not firing him would mean Selmon loses all credibility with the fans after the Lemonis stuff.

I've heard there were some shenanigans at Delta State dealing with female students.

Yeah, some not good rumors but you have to do due diligence to separate fact from fiction and find out what you can and can't live with.

Long as Petrino has sold his motorcycle and if still married, stays away from young, attractive female staffers, I am now ready for this asap. We are the only SEC program except vandy that does not have a nationally known, competent, competitive HC in FB. Maybe Sunbelt Billy, but he is getting more well known for his problems this year and last, but have you checked their 2024 recruiting class?

Charleston Southern right? I don't think he's been at Georgia Southern. Could be wrong though.

As for the Egg, remember Croom's 45-0, "Well, I didn't see that coming" loss. We even fired JoMo with two winning seasons with wins over OM. 4-8 with a blow out to OM, and even CZA will see it coming.

That's right. Don't know why that popped in my head.

I don't know. Go look at his last stint at Louisville (got fired) and then Missouri State. It wasn't pretty. Just my opinion. Love talking about the different names though. Keep them coming!

With a generational QB in Lamar at that.
Kinne's at TX State is interesting, low on HC experience though.

Like a freight train. 4-8 is not showing you grasp the concept of being a head coach in a P5 program in the SEC. You have shown ZERO potential to be able to perform at this level. A veritable prison rape by OM will only seal the deal.

Yeah, thought of that soon as i posted, LOL. After being a young Dawg suffering through the Shira years and beyond, ( He even won SEC COY after a 6-5 record one year I think). Look, I am now feeling so desperate I would even welcome Dan 2.0 if he would wait on his annual yearly job search until after EGG Bowl, if he would have the team ready!**

100%. No SEC HC should ever go 0-8 and not be fired. Can you keep your job with a lack of success like that, first year or not?

Oh I get it. I was open to it as well but then those numbers sort of slapped my into reality. I'm excited though, I think we're going to do it right this time. We better.

Reminds me, Matt Wyatt was alluding to some things today too. First time I have listened to him in a while.
