He had money, money wasn't the issue. They evaluated talent poorly but given the timeline they had its understandable. I do think we need to adjust the kind of players we are recruiting in the portal. Trying to build a team with all 15hr potential guys thats cant hit for average or play defense isn't working out well and not just for us.

I agree, let's do it. Maybe one of these years we'll make an elite 8 of a final 4, and it'll all be worth it.

Is this just a money thing? Seems the good players from last year also suck now. Something deeper went wrong with the offseason and early season prep.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that his two worst seasons here have followed a national championship. I think deep post season runs like that necessarily take his attention away from recruiting, scouting, etc.

He has mid SEC money. Last year just came together. This year is what you pay for.

This is just not true. Someone as methodical as Jay chooses to talk about lack of rev share funds on the record during the season and You think money isn’t an issue?

Y’all are dumber than I thought.

Pretty sure we won 2 out of the last 3 NC's

I think Jay knows what he is doing

Worst take I’ve read. What are the real chances wade can win a natty? Compare that to the chance Jay has to win another.

How can we fund all the sports - the money comes from the same place. Plus 61M in buyouts. When it is diluted and wins aren’t coming donors are going to be so free with their money.
