    I've told this before but in his last season we were playing UK. In the 2nd half we come set then all of a sudden shift to an empty backfield and 4 wide with Boobie being outside on the left. We had a WR, I forget who, on the inside left. UK didn't know whether to shit or wind their wristwatch. They were jumping and shifting all over the place and I thought they were going to call timeout. Anyway, they ended up with the corner on Boobie and a linebacker on our WR with no safety over the top. I was already thinking TD before we snapped the ball. Instead, we throw a 3 yard out to the right side. I left and went home. I don't think I even went to the UPIG game even though I had tickets and I laughed all the way through the egg bowl because I figured that was the final nail in that bastard's coffin and it was.

    You're right. I forget the exact yardage and location but I remember the going for it on 4th then punting when we should have gone for it. Do you remember the exact details? I know it was at UGA.

    In 2004 we lost to vandy, Maine and uab. Yeah it's worse. Just say it's bad. But it isn't worse. It's not even close.

    As bad as this offense has been, without the starting qb for 3 games, it's avg 33 more yards than Croom's BEST offense. But yeah, this is worse. Your honor I make a motion to dismiss......

    2006 game we lost 27-24? We punted on Geogia's 30 yard line on our first possession of the game. But I don't remember going for it on a 4th down in a bad spot. We went for and got a first down on Georgia's 38 yard line. Maybe that time? We fumbled to end the game on Georgia's 23 yard line. We also threw an interception earlier in the game at Georgia's 6 yard line after recovering their fumble and another interception at their 13 yard line in the 3rd quarter.

    And no I didn't do points bc I don't feel like looking up defensive td's and taking them out. 07 had a ton of those. But the point is made. And I'm admitting it's bad. But it ain't worse. Ain't close

    After losing to Vandy and UAB in back to back weeks we turn around and beat 20th ranked Florida at home. Norwood had him a day. I also think that's where "Croomed" originated because I think Zook may have been fired at the end of that year.

    He was officially fired and announced after the loss against us but they let him finish the season out.

    Yes we did. Was there. Norwood was soo good. Hate he had to play on those teams. Explosive. Haven't had a guy that explosive since. Or maybe ever

    Well I was at 3-2 vs Auburn. I was at 32-29 vs Tulane, I was at 9-7 vs Maine. I was at 27-13 vs UAB.

    What this staff has done is worse. Croom had an excuse. Arnett has none

    Hey, I wasn't going to bring up your heavy drinking back in those days but I'm glad you are able to share with the group.***

    I was at all of those games as well. Noticed that we lost to a losing FCS team and a losing G5 school in Tulane. We were pitiful then and not good at all now. But I can't agree it's worse.

    Croom had 5 years. He was trash. This isn't worse. Best year of offense was 303 yds per game. I'm sorry you have so much bias in this.

    Only thing I am bias too is winning and ya know, im a big fan of coaches that are semi competent at their job and dont tear down something that took years to do in 6 months. It?s not bias it is the truth. Moorhead was better. And Moorhead was a total flop.

    This staff has done worse than Croom did in a much shorter about of time. Given 5 years there would be nothing left to save.

    I know that that were asked to do something really hard and unprecedented, but it is what it is. It did not have to be this way

    Croom was bad. But he also exceded our win total from 2003 to 2004 even with a loss to Maine, Vanderbilt, and UAB.
