| Most players leaving early ever from one school! (Posted on 1/8/13 at 8:56 pm)
Good lord.

But later in the day, running back Michael Ford decided that he would forgo his senior season, bringing the number of Tigers declaring early to 10, which is believed to be the most ever from one school in one season.

Kinda cool. Would be cooler yet if they all got jobs in the NFL next year.

That would be something. Wonder where that would put us in the number of tigers in the NFL I know we have the most in the SEC.

I don't think all these guys make NFL rosters. While they are all talented individuals there are also very talented individuals from other places. We will see.

Assuming they all make an NFL roster, and what Mike Detillier said yesterday about 4 first rounders, doesn't that highlight even further that a trip to the Chicken Bowl and losing (and badly statistically) is a huge comment on the staff?
Doing more with Les. The sooner he is relegated to his strengths of recruiting and giving the media Engrish lessons, and having a Chavis equivalent at OC, the better.

Oh so you found a new way to shite on miles.
I thought the narrative was that miles has nothing to do with defense and its all Chavis. So the defense might have multiple first rounders and the unit under achieved in the second half of the season but now its miles fault the defense struggled.
Blame for failures and no credit for successes. What a fanbase.

Maybe the players were more interested in going to the nfl?

Hard to have good defensive statistics when the other team gets 50% more plays in one game than they should, thanks to 8 three and outs. If you are going to blame the defense for the Chicken Bowl loss, then you really are clueless. Let's look rather at some games like holding AhBarn to 10 points and having to score the winning points, or the shutdown of Johnny Football (making up for an anemic offiense). Or holding the NC Gumps in check for almost an entire game while Les pulled out several trick plays that failed when the horseshoe finally fell out of his arse.

Sounds like our coaching staff knows how to recruit and develop players!

With faulk leaving thats 11... How many think this means we have a good coaching staff or a bad one? Most people think its a sign of a good program but im more inclined to think its a bad sign.

As bad as I hate guys to leave before they get their degrees, I believe they all know that staying for another year would not produce anything close to another National Championship with our current system.
