Two hours ago it was Kirby and staff. Now he is going to lose in the first round to Pete Golding in his second game as a head coach.

The poster who is running around with a hard on over Brent Key and Kiffin will probably be the first to post "Should we hire Golding"?

We have to admit one of two things; Kiffin is a good coach, or Peter Golding is a better head coach than Deboer lol

It is weird that some on here are basically fine with having a coach that has been embarrassed on a national level several times after taking over the greatest football program in history. I know some of our melt is hyperbolic, but it’s weird to be scolded for wanting better. Mind you four teams left to win it all. Every coach was a Saban assistant.

Two years ago, we hired the flavor of the hour.
It hasn't worked out well.
Lazy arse hire.

People are acting like headless chickens. Look I get it. It was a monumental loss. DeBoer, staff, and players have their work cut out for them. He def needs to let some players/staff go. But college football now is so fickle. You can instantly go from worst to first like Indiana now and then completely fall out like FSU and Michigan just recently. Let’s see what next year brings.

Thinking he should come back (or even having enough common sense to know that he will) is not the same as being fine with what happened today. Some of yall are flat retards that think we are playing with Monopoly money.

Or finding an elite play making QB like chambliss will elevate a program

Ole miss can actually run so may want to address that too.

Hot take is that losing 38-3 may actually be better than losing by 10 or 14. Doubt there would be incentive to change much if we lost a closer game, but hopefully this beat down forces DeBoer’s hand on a few items.

Not overreacting and firing a coach when you are generally winning is the way.
However, as I've said, I wouldn't be surprised if October or November 2027 is the end of the line for DeBoer without some marked improvement in the product he's putting out on the field.
A loss like that one is the kind that Saban would put on programs and they'd never be the same afterwards. I want to say that 2015 beating Alabama put on Michigan State sorta ended the peak of the Dantonio era and they were mostly in a decline after that Cotton Bowl game.
That's what happened to us today. Is he really going to keep that locker room bought into what they're trying to do? Will he QA this season and make bold changes to fix the problems?

This.
Plus, we weren’t as big and bad as a lot of these people want to believe. A huge number of our contributors this year are R-sophomores or younger, with A LOT of true sophomores and freshmen playing.
Why? What was left wasn’t all it was cracked up to be.

Just let us know when we can expect coaching to come into play. Any chance these guys do their jobs anytime soon? Asking for myself

The worse loss since 1998 to a coach in his second year means our 2nd year coach is close.

Oh no, I know he is coming back. My comment was directed more toward the people acting as if we couldn’t do better. I understand that fiscally it isn’t a possibility at the moment, but I won’t sit here and act like I don’t think Deboers days are numbered here. I think that is is a mediocre to good coach that can’t put teams away in games he wins, and will likely continue to lose 3-4 games a year because he is too soft natured to coach in the SEC.

Do you think DeBoer can really come back from this?

Kirby hasn’t won a game in the expanded playoff, correct?
Posted on 1/1/26 at 11:27 pm to BFANLC
It did this year.
I’m sorry you got your ego hurt by the size of the loss. We are an extremely young and don’t have the talent some folks would like to think in the upper classmen. We were in the SEC championship game year two and the second round of the playoffs. This team massively overachieved. Year what 10 with Georgia and Kirby gets bounced. Sark misses most years. Elko laid an egg.
IU is probably going to win it all. They are legit good dude.
We will likely hit the portal to shore up some deficiencies, but our young players are going to develop and be really good.

Gut feeling? No. However there are a litany of reasons why I think he’s the coach at the start of 2027.
