"The people that keep saying “we aren’t a national championship program” or “we can’t expect to be Bama or LSU” are the fricking problem with this god forsaken fanbase. If you truly believe either one of those things and don’t believe those are attainable, you can frick right off because you’re a me...

"...posts like this make us look bad...." Why? This is an Ole Miss football discussion forum. I opened by expressing my doubts about posting this topic, but I don't see why any legitimate football topic would be off limits. I get the feeling I may have read more internet scuttlebutt than others. ...

Ok, I'm the guy who started this thread. Some say it "didn't age well." Fair enough. I'm not one of those guys who always has to be right, and I pride myself on admitting when I'm wrong. I'm not a big contributor here. My goal is to ask people to think, which always results in ME thinking. I've been...

"Probably not. You're relying upon pure stats. I bet the gap in talent between our defense and teams we face in our conference is likely larger than just about anyone else." THIS is the key question, IMO. As I stated in a previous post, I'm aware of this issue. Purdue, AZ state, and Air Force def...

We can discuss defensive particulars forever. I'm of the belief that neither I nor anyone on this board possesses even a small percentage of football knowledge of men who coach at the highest levels. IMO there is absolutely nothing any of us could tell Kiffin or Durkin that they don't already know a...

"Where’s Tywone Malone? Where’s Demon Clowney? Where’s Iton? The talent is there. This." I totally agree. But at the same time I DO NOT believe it to be a "talent" issue. They have more talent this year than last year, yet their weaknesses are EXACTLY the same! No containment...pathetic tackli...

"We stuck our necks out to hire him after the mess at Maryland, and it clearly has not worked out. No there’s not a lot of talent to work with, but his defenses have consistently played to (or below) that talent level. We need someone who can get our defense to punch above its weight" THIS is pre...

Are there ANY Durkin supporters here? If so, please state your case for a DC who coached a Div I defense to 124th out of 125 teams, and then implied it was his talent. Really? The Rebels had lesser talent than 123 other FBS teams. That's a bit hard to believe. Now this year he has better talent yet ...

Thanks. So I'm assuming confidence in Dent is pretty low? I've watched all his HS highlight vids and seen his HS stats. Other than his relatively low completion % he was pretty impressive. He looks slow, but 6'5" QBs often do. He ran well, gained a lot of yards. Strong arm. There's no way to pred...

Thanks. That's the only conclusion I could come to, on he indeed was listed as #2 behind Campbell. And certainly after his freshman year Momo perhaps hasn't quite lived up to his potential, but given his ability it seems really unfortunate that they can't find a place for him. ...
