Yes. We got down early and couldn't recover. Look what happened to LSU yesterday. Ole Miss is not THAT much better than LSU if they are better. It just happens sometimes.

and he barely beat Tennessee and Kentucky?

Again, we can point to several teams that have done the same. Does the Arkansas game last year tell us Alabama was not a good team? Look at the body of work. We took Alabama down to the wire. We lost two straight games and kept our composure to reel off 10 or so straight wins. He may not have been impressive to you, but when he held the team together after the Boise game and SC game....they could have folded up and a LOT of teams would have.

Already done it. I can live with down years so long as there is a clear intent to improve - some hires just don't work out, for whatever reason.

This is true, and reasonable. I understand why people want a change. I just want people to fully understand what they are wanting and will probably get. But, who knows? Maybe we will beat the odss and take off and have some great years. I hope that's the case.

Gotta run! I enjoyed the conversation. You guys made some legitimate points. I respect that we were able to do it politely.
