My issue is the O-line. This dude used to be an O-Line whisperer. This line is the worst line we've had in a long, long time. Sam needs to take ownership of that line.



Was he? Or was he just a great recruiter? Then taught them the basics and offensive coordinators put them in the proper place?

Oh they can, KJ just doesn't see them when they are, and when he does see them they drop the pass.

If I'm being honest I see us getting McGangbanged in the next 4 or 5 weeks so I'm sure the fanbase will be fully reunited again in a few weeks

Most the drop passes aren’t good passes. They are either too far in front of them or behind them and they had to stop and catch in a bad spot.

That’s why there is very few YACs.

so, you are just here for it?

We will win a couple that we shouldn't.. If, and it's a bit if... We don't spiral. Which is a possibility.

Pittman has his work cut out for him especially now. Which, he evidently didn't do the work needed that caused us to be where we are today!

Yes. We all look forward to 12 damn Saturdays in the fall, and that’s why we are either angry or numb to this. Being numb to it like most of us turns into empty stadiums. Which means coaching changes.

I’m surprised his RB room hasn’t told him to get lost. Spent the week putting most of it on their back when it’s obvious it’s the OL that sucks.

I think he’s always been overrated as an OL coach, honestly.

His lines here were meh. We went 3-9, 7-6, and 8-5 with him as OL coach and lost 13 straight SEC games at one point.

He was a journeyman before he came here and never really left an imprint. He coached under Derek Dooley at UT and Butch Davis at UNC before coming.

Similar to Chad and Clemson, Georgia got way better after he left.

Yes and no. They don't do a good job getting to the ball when the QB throws them open where only they can get it. Lot of drops on those specifically.

No back shoulder throws at all.

Just think there isn't a lot in sync with so many new guys. No stud or star either. Hasz is legit but probably transfers after 5-7 and fire Pittman.

Minus TE the WR core is not very good, bottom tier in this conference for sure.

Line sucks arse.

Easy to blame the QB yes, but so much more to it not in his control.

same. Never impressed me when he was here. Having the biggest line in football that they loved to bring up still didn’t help us get a yard when we needed it against the Aggies 2 years in a row

I was so tired of hearing that shite.

In 2014 that “biggest line in football” went 2-6 in the SEC. In 2015 they were getting pushed around and worked by Toledo and Texas Tech.

Guess who has the biggest line in all of football this year. Alabama. And they’re horrible.

Sam is below Nutt.

He is Bert level.

shite, he had some good lines and yall know it, here and Georgia both. He built his reputation on that. But that's no excuse for how garbage this line is in year four.

I lay a bunch of our failures the last 2 years on KJ though, I'm at the point I just don't think he's capable of excelling as a d-1 QB, we've had 2 supposedly above average OCs and he still can't find an open receiver to save his life. Hell of an athlete but that's about all I can say at this point.

But yea, send Pitt down the road. The end of last season ruined me on the dude and I was hopeful for this season but it's clear we're not making positive progress.

We were thisclose to having another "hur dur proud of my baws" press conference but honestly thank God we didn't pull that BS out at the end so maybe we'll make progress on calling the lazy frick out for his failures instead of giving him another pass for another few weeks.

Go hogs.
