How far have we fallen that guys are fighting to keep Payton Thorne as our starter. Two games of "grit" doesn't erase an overall season of mediocrity. There has to be better in the portal and we need to go after it.

Yea. Throne can get us to 7/8 wins but that’s it. He’s not going to light the world on fire.

I get people wanting to stick with their guys, but that’s just not what CFB is anymore.

I’ve been asking that question all season. He’s a less talented Chris Todd.

So what does the board think of Grayson McCall? Numbers fell off this year but the team support was less and the OC play calling was different, and he was dinged up.

On the flip side, his numbers are against Coastal Carolina opponents. One might argue its apples to apples because his supporting staff here will be commensurate with the increased competition. Or one might say he is a Houks, who when taken out of the small pond turns out to be much less impactful.

Thats what I said. We have not had a good QB in so long, people dont remember what it was like.

That dude was absolutely fricking horible for the majority of the season. Just because he used some guts in the Iron Bowl and ran the ball well, does not mean we need to play him next year. He ran well, he still missed open receivers like crazy


He is not the guy we need moving forward. Easy to see
