We have a depleted roster, a lot of it makeshift.

We have a new staff.

The cupboard was bare when Kelly got here.

The cupboard was pretty much bare after the championship season.

I think Kelly is a good coach but much like Les he was a midwestern three yards and a cloud of dust guy who is quickly learning the SEC is different than any other league.

If we'll be a bit patient, realizing it might be a couple years before we get our roster back to full strength, and keep our panties out of a wad, we will be OK.

I've been through all this before. I am older than all you Johnny Come Latelies. Hell, I remember hearing the Billy Cannon run on my daddy's 1954 Ford car radio.

I was with you until your condescending last two sentences. Congrats on being old. We all see what you see, despite not looking at it through cataract-clouded lenses.

I do have cataracts. I hope you never do. I have a lot of other medical issues I hope you never have. It's young know it all punks like you who have no respect for others, particulary elders, and very little respect for yourself.

You, sir, may kiss my old arse. Or, meet me at the Tastee Freeze (we don't have a Sonic).

But remember, us old farts play to win at this stage in life.

You have to understand that tRant is made up mostly of the idiot part of our fan base. Most rational fans realize the situation and thankfully so does the AD. It’s a process, things are heading in the right direction

The 10m a year is what fixes this in 2 years. For 5m a year it never gets fixed at all and you end up bringing in a new coach every 3 years

Yes that is what the program signed up for. If you don’t like it, do something on Saturdays.

His yearly salary doesn’t equate talent on the roster he inherited and wins in his first year.

Not only that, the people who have any sense don’t have much to say because we don’t have enough info to diagnose the problems. We just have to let unfold. BK may turn out to be great, and he may turn out to suck. We just don’t know yet. Anyone acting like they’ve figured it out already are idiots and they’re also the only ones with anything to say right now.

Explain to us how a dollar amount equates to an increase in talent he acquired and guaranteed wins....

Do y’all remember we could barely even field a team to play in a game 9 months ago. (Bowl game).

You realize half of the quotes you used weren’t mine, right?

If you’re going to white-knight, at least be competent (that’s me being condescending, you jackass).

Kelly isn’t being paid by the year. He being paid for his tenure. He absolutely is held to a standard but he gets time to build the team to that standard.

Would you prefer we hire a shitty coach for 1 million dollar coach so it wouldn’t feel like we’re overpaying him when we go 7-5?

I 100% know that. Just because my reply was to your post, doesnt mean I was speaking specifically to you. I can only reply to one of you idiots. My reply to each comment was specific to that poster. Sorry, didn't realize I had to spell it out or give you an instruction manual on how to interpret the post. (thats me being condescending to you, idiot)

FreeState, from another old guy, you are spot on.

These young kids have no patience and expect perfection from everyone else.
