re: What gives you confidence that Miles can lead us to another championship?

5 years we've heard this. I'm so sick of fricking hearing it.

It's our own expectations.

2013 and 2014 weren't years. We lost the entire defense going into 2013, and then the entire offense going into 2014. Even this season, we are still pretty young, with a new starting quarterback.

2012 was our last "year." And we had a very good team, who unfortunately lost a game against Alabama they should have won. It sucked, no doubt.

Next season, we'll have a second-year starting quarterback, almost all of our skill position players back, and three or four offensive linemen returning. On defense, we keep every contributor on the defensive line, and the vast majority of our secondary. Linebacker is the only shaky position, but if Beckwith returns, it'll look a lot better.

Next year really is "the year." If Miles can't beat Alabama and/or make it to Atlanta, he needs to be out.
