    It seems tonight in a lot of ways really illustrates the point we have been trying to make. Just because someone has been a defensive coach for a long time or even learned under some great coaches doesn't mean they can game plan or make in game adjustments. Your DC better know how to scheme and adjust. Because talent is only part of the equation in this league. You have to have it, but you also have damn better be able to scheme against great coaches as well when you are trying to compete against the top teams. Because they have talent as well.

    Paul Johnson probably thinks we are the most idiotic team of the SEC, and I don't blame him.
    Paul Johnson was laughing at us on the damn sideline. To stop the triple option, the FIRST thing you have to take away from them is the dive. It is literally unbelievable. Hell, it got to the point where he just started calling straight dives without the option aspect on a few of their TD drives. Broke those for 9 yards a pop too.

    My goodness that was pathetic and it gets worse every time I think about it.

    You have to adjust too. We made one adjustment after Tech was killing outside, but once Tech adjusted after halftime, it was a bloodbath.

    The good thing about tonight is it has to force change. You don't give up a 50 spot with 5 weeks to prepare for that and screw it up as bad as we did. Especially not with a true blue triple option HS QB running scout team. Fitz is everything GT had tonight and more. 5 weeks. Congrats on that.

    You hire a name DC here. It's the only way to truly savage it. In hiring a name vs a "one year up-and-comer", you probably get someone that has some balls and will only come here under the supposition of having full control of the defensive playcalling. You get that -- and we can move forward.

    As is, we're 2012 all over again -- just with a better QB in a worse SEC.

    It makes me sick. I swear I could have coached our defense better than what we displayed tonight, and I have no football coaching experience.

    Yeah but will a name DC ever be allowed to coach? I don't believe he will. Clean Mullen office.

    Didn't I say adjust a couple of times? That's why I want the best x & o coach we can get for our DC.

    This shit has pissed me off more than any of our other losses this season. We had a f*cking month to prepare for the triple option, and we get beat by a f*cking dive play?!

    Are you f*cking kidding me!?

    Just damn. I can't understand it.

    I wasn't saying that to disagree with you -- it just sparked my memory of how the 2nd half was the worst coached half of defensive football I've ever seen from us.

    You are incorrect...

    That entire defensive game was the worst coached piece of sh*t that I've ever seen. That includes the f*cking head scratcher that occurred in Oxford this year.

    You force that. We're past the point of playing ****ing games.

    - aTm has John Chavis. He's had like 9 top 10 defenses in the past decade.
    - Bama has Saban/Smart. I don't remember last time they fell out of the top 5.
    - OM has Joe Lee Wommack. They were elite on a level we haven't seen under Mullen. And they basically only lose a safety.
    - Arky. Do I really need to define how good they've been lately?
    - Auburn. F'n Muschamp. When was the last time he wasn't an elite DC. And Auburn has stockpiled good talent on that side.
    - LSU will spend $1-1.5 mil/yr for their next guy. Whole defense just about was freshmen this year. It's a golden opportunity. They will cherrypick someone.

    We're at a ****ing crossroads. Either we want to hang with the Joneses -- or we need to get the **** off the porch.

    Thank God you have absolutely no influence to our program and if you did no one would listen to a thing you say. Quit talking out of your ass. You fire Mullen right now, you would have to beg to hire someone as good as like a Rick Ray. Maybe we would get lucky and someone like Terry Bowden would interview.

    We ain't firing his ass. Even though it's as good as it's ever gonna be under him. He better learn ****ing fast and let his coaches coach or 10 wins is an anomaly. Wake up.
