But, we can't let Stricklin off the hook. Every coach he's hired except Golden, has made the team worse.

let’s see who he hires before busting out the pitch forks

I’m very pessimistic as always, but nothing has been official yet. If Stricklin nailed this hire, which I doubt, he’ll make up for a lot of his past frick ups

I’m beginning to think neither of us are getting Kiffin.

Not Florida.
Not LSU.
Not Ole Miss.

Watched the CBS Show, and they had mentioned that PSU is looking at Deboer. I could see him wanting out at Bama due to their expectations.


That opens the door for Lane to live into Tuscaloosa.

Makes perfect sense. At that point, who do we get?


I think Auburn get Durkin.

Ole Miss gets Sumrall.

LSU gets…??? Dilly?

Drink remains at Mizzou.


Florida gets… Riley? Dabo? I can see Dabo wanting out and starting fresh somewhere. He’s going to have to get out of his own way though if he wants success again.

I was all in on Lane Kiffin well before Napier got hired but everyone mirrored him to Dan Mullen too much.

Same. Mostly because of the playcalling. For all his faults, Mullen was a good play caller. Lane would have offered no drop off in that regard.

But people were on that whole "CEO" schtick because of what Ed O was able to do in 2019 and they thought Billy would be just that.
