So you're saying we'd be better off if we would have gotten our brains beaten in after the move to the SEC, confirming what all our rivals were saying (that we couldn't compete in a better conference)?


I'm saying four 6-6 to 8-4 type seasons with a subsequent new hire would have very possibly been better in the long run than what we have in store for us, yes.

And we'd be better offer if our recruiting classes had been in the 20s and 30s, even though you claim we're already screwed with classes in the teens?


Sumlin gets more credit for recruiting than he should.

Why? If anything, that just makes us much more unattractive over the long run.

So going 7-6 in 2012, instead of 11-2, would have still produced a top 10 class in '14, followed by #11 and #18 class?

Sumlin has averaged 9 wins per season including a 3-1 bowl record in the elite sec west at a time when ole miss and state have experienced what many consider to be equal to their best years ever

He has not proven himself a bad coach, just an above average or good coach
