AP doesn’t matter.

The CFP committee putting Bama ahead of us after losing 24-3 to a dog shite OU team will be the actual kiss of death.

Coach Kiffin on Bentley not playing: "It's nothing off the field at all. He's a wonderful kid, does everything we ask of him. We just haven't been really consistent and productive at that spot this year. Tried something else yesterday. I have a lot of respect for him. I appreciate how he's handled the situation. But this is what happens in coaching...you've got to make hard decisions."

Not an off the field or an injury issue…. Please someone explain.
Pete please tell us who is making this call

Need some media to press this issue about Bentley . That chickenshite ‘answer’ isn’t gonna cut it

The big donors should be furious about this and they should demand why is my NIL donation being pissed away to go for a player who you won’t play ? That would get me good and hot.


Kiffin is too narcissistic and manipulative over the program trolling the injury report and making statements about how players are healthy and will play and they don’t , to even care. He’s just ready to send memes on twitter and hangout all day.

I wonder how much money we spent on the RB room this season.

Parrish
Diggs
Bentley
Amos
Thomas

Vs just getting a Judkins or Martinez from Oregon state

I’ve never been one to harp on wether we should’ve kept
Judkins or not

Mainly because who’s to say if we had kept him, if he was gonna holdout mid season to try to renegotiate his rate for future weeks… and then We would be in the same position we are in now with no running backs available. Seems like he would’ve been an even bigger diva and pain in the arse for 2024 had he remained


It’s such a shittey situation and I the fans absolutely deserve to know why the coaching staff has decided to be petty 13 year old girls regarding icing Bentley out of competition for no good reason.

Truly insane that we started a backup WR at TB in the most important game we’ve had in 50 yrs and ran a 300 pounder off tackle vs up the gut on 2 failed 4th down attempts.

I’ve said it before like pretty much all the rest of us but it really is just nothing short of mind boggling.

The problem is we didn’t run him up the gut on the failed conversions. We tried to run him outside which kills his momentum advantage.

I think that’s partly on JJ. On two of those there was a push in the middle that would have easily gotten him the first down. But he decided to bounce it outside. I think that play that he almost broke loose against Georgia got in his head a little bit

And I can’t even blame JJ for deciding to break it out when it wasn’t there. HE’S NOT A RUNNING BACK. Neither is Micah Davis. Good lord. What have we done?

Eh. I can blame him a little. He hadn’t tried to do it all year but it worked once against UGA so he decided to go rogue. The play design works. He just needs to do what he is told instead of trying to break loose for a big gain

Yep, doesn’t matter if it’s there or not. JJ’s momentum would have got the first down. Bouncing to the outside worked a couple times against UGA (which Florida had tape of and surely was expecting) so he tried it again. Our coaching staff should have been in his ear the past two weeks telling him not to do that again but especially after the first time it didn’t work.

If Kiffin ever gets named for a big job again we need to let him walk don’t offer another extension just let him walk. Investors invested too much money in this team for nothing. For him not to go out and get a half decent running back is the worst of them all.

Both were called runs off tackle. You can tell from the blocking assignments from the backfield crashing that direction.

I haven’t watched the plays again( and never will out of sheer disgust) but this makes it even worse. Straight up coaching malpractice.

Not sure if any of y'all use TikTok (or twitter) but there’s a few players coming out and straight up reposting “free Bentley” videos and tweets. Dart reposted a Bentley edit on tt, Watkins the “free doo” OM barstool post.
A lot more going on behind the scenes than lane is letting on.

100%. But it seems to me like they have the attitude of “seasons over, no consequences now”
