Gadget program gonna gadget.

If you think this is spontaneous and not scripted for recruiting purposes then you are dumber than the average LSU fan.

This is his best coaching job since 2012. His most mentally tough team since Manziel left.

So far.

If he builds on this and finishes this season well, he deserves to stay.

But he's gotta finish well.

If you cannot see that these players are fully on board again, after us all believing he'd lost the team two years ago

Then you're drunker than an LSU fan

You guys are getting a little overexcited and going Jim Jones on the koolaid.

I'm somewhere in between you guys (Jim Jones) and CGSC.

I don't know what you think I'm excited about, I am pointing out that the players as evidenced in the video are behind their coach

o.O .....is this like "you people"?



I'm not excited. Just observing that there's some damn grit with this team. Hadn't seen it in a hot minute.

Gonna take more than pure grit to win out, of course. We'll see how it goes.

frick Sumlin. Our players are behind each other, not him. If this team accomplishes anything it will be because they were strong enough to overcome his stupidity.

I'm right in line with the Bird. Sumlin's team is playing with a hardness that simply hasn't been here since 2012. I dont' think you can deny that.

this is all aggies have asked for since the beginning. he's just seemed disconnected and disaffected until now. His eyes normally look glossed over in a big loss and confused.

But after the Bama game, he looked mad. First time I've ever seen that real emotion from him. maybe he quit drinking or something?

if we run out of time so be it, but aggies are not supposed to quit. I like what I've seen over the past few weeks, but it's gotta be sustained through the rest of the season in order for me to feel comfortable going into next season with KS at the helm.

He is coaching differently this year. Not sure what to make of it. But not only is he more involved on the sideline, but he just looks better in general. Like maybe he lost a little weight. He doesn't look as flush, maybe he is backing off the drinking.

And has Chief said why he's not in the booth this year?

Hadn't heard why. Could be as simple as just changing up the mojo

You guys are being duped! SEC is historically bad.

In normal years we'd be flying the l.

Yeah, we've played some really sorry teams. Ucla is bad. Arkansas is bad. USC is bad. Florida is bad. Ulala is bad. Nicholls is bad.

Alabama is good, and we looked good against them. It was however, 24-3 at one point, and we were in real danger of being an OM/Vandy type casualty. Ththese young guys are getting a ton of great experience, hopefully it will help the next coach start strong.

Never said it wasn't bad.

Nor am I calling us world beaters.
