This year BK did the best job in the world with the new staff, transfers, and he won the West with little team stability and now he has a year to get his program identity established. What a time to be a Tiger Fan!
Next year I’m not saying we’re winning the Natty, but it’s going to be a wonderful season and almost no doubt we’ll be in the playoffs.

I want to believe. But I think 2024 is the year. I predicted 8-4 for 2022, so I have no clue.

Anything worse than 9-3 should be considered a failure with this schedule.

The 2023 schedule is set up perfect for a run. The big question marks will be filling the major holes at every position on defense through portal transfers and landing some solid recruits who are able to contribute immediately.

Love the enthusiasm but tell me where we will instantly fill in the losses on defense, along with filling in the tremendous lack of depth we have.

Next year is not a slam dunk at all. We have a ways to go.

Meh....I want to believe you but it's kind of hard. We currently are in limbo about who will be QB1. Is JD5 staying or declaring for the draft? Our RB's were average this year, not expecting much improvement next year. I think we'll be ok at WR but again, depends on who will be QB1.

Will Polian be replaced? Do we find a guy that can actually field punts?

We currently have no secondary. Recruits will need time to transition to the college level, transfers will need time to learn the system and gel. Hopefully Perkins continue to improve, he struggled with stopping the run and struggled even more in pass coverage. We also need Smith to fully recover and be the stopper we think he is.

Basically, there are a lot of questions. I keep seeing guys entering the portal and that's not a positive for a team that already had no depth. Right now, the coaches are expected to have a top 5 recruiting class, that's all you can ask for. The transfer portal has a lot of players and hopefully we can get some guys with talent and experience that can make an impact next year.

I would feel a lot better if I started seeing transfer portal guys coming in and not just leaving out.

Schedule is ridiculously easy for an SEC schedule. Beat Florida State and they definitely can go on a nice run

I hate to be that guy, but we’re not winning a natty until 2026 at the earliest:

Offense has a chance to really hum. Defense has a lot of question marks.

When the 12 team format starts, it will be glorious every year!

Year 3. Year 3 is where we will see a tremendous leap.
