I noticed an interesting tidbit in the Derrick Davis Jr. article. He’s dad makes the comment that CEO told them early on before the season that the Tigers may struggle this year.

Don't forget about dat gumbo also

Absolutely this. It caught me off guard with the amount of transparency, and it seems its what paid dividends with relationship building to Derrick and his dad.

It also made me feel better about the season, as bad as its been, that our coaches were aware of what was coming. Hopefully this amazing class coming together, against last years will get us back to some dominant football.

Harris’s options are transfer portal or bench
