Look at the list of True Freshmam LBs that started under CNS: - Rolando McClain
- Donte Hightower
- Reggie Ragland
- CJ Mosely
- Christian Harris (played Cornerback as a Senior at University Lab (1A) in Baton Rouge
- Trey Depriest (injury wrecked his career)
- Dylan Moses (same)
- Rashaad Evans
Many others who played a lot as well:
- Jihaad Campbell (rotated with Trez Marshal/was start in Semi-Final game vs Michigan)
- Reuben Foster (making the calls was the only reason he didn’t start day 1)

And these guys have what to do with Xavier Griffin?

These guys listed were coached by some of the best defensive minds in the game - some of these defensive coaches being historically great. That is no longer the situation in Tuscaloosa.

CJ Mosley 2.0 is a big frickin ask too. You think Griffin will be one of the best ILBs in the conference (which is incredibly watered down, particularly from a defensive standpoint, compared to when Mosley was in TTown) on Day 1?

Look, I think X. Griffin will be a good player for us at some point, but a lot of your takes are overly optimistic to the point of delusion.

It seems that this staff likes to recruit long, rangy athletes on the DL (typically guys that play edge in high school) and have them grow into DTs once on campus. Similar to Jeremiah Beaman. In addition to Franklin, I could see Nolan Wilson ending up playing inside as well.

Damn was hoping Keeley would reconsider and come back. He was finally starting to look like a ball player for us last year.

Wish we could have retained him, James Smith and Noah Carter if it was financially feasible/prudent. Couldn’t care less about anyone else that’s leaving.

Systems and processes make organizations successful. This has been true in the past, remains true today and will continue to hold true in the future. This applies across nearly everything in life.

Yes, the landscape of college football has changed with the portal and NIL, but you are speaking as if the introduction of those things has erased all coachable players and the ability for managers to implement their systems and processes in a demanding way. There are still many driven individuals out there. It’s about attracting the right individuals.

Saban’s “process” is not unique to him. There are people who are held to a high standard and intense scrutiny every single day and achieve success. They show up each and every day, and Do Their Job. They buy-in and carry themselves as professionals, regardless of how much they are receiving in compensation.

I really wish Ryan could spend a day or two with Devonta Smith training with him and talking about what it takes to be the best. Smitty worked his arse off and was focused. Ryan could learn a lot from him.

This happened over the offseason.

Grubb is actually clinically retarded.

It’s pathetic at this point. We shouldn’t be in the playoff.

We are just simply a poorly coached team.

Riveting stuff here. I now do believe you played football at a high level because you certainly did not pursue a career that requires any material brain function.

Oh okay you’re actually a smooth brain. Comparing Uga to frickin Boise. Make a Wish needs to come snag YStar before he hurts himself.

You're an open wheels racer. Enzo Ferrari hands you the keys to an F1 ride. You think he expects you to try your best and do good? frick no. He wants podiums. He gave you the keys to get podiums.

DeBoer has the seat and the backing, but both can be yanked if he doesn't produce. That's the game

You are completely on target. Anyone saying “he made the SEC champ” or even worse “regular season champs!” are fricking morons who have no clue what they are looking at on a day to day basis.

They want him to pay 13x what he was paid.

And he signed the contract agreeing to those terms.

Nonetheless, as the other poster said, give the money back. And don’t take a penny from Mizzou if he’s truly in it for the love of the game and to pursue his NFL dreams.
