Fwiw that was definitely the buzz pre season

I know AI is impressive on some things. But it's generally not good for sports right now. Just test it on things that are verifiable, or you already know. You'll see what I'm talking about.

I had one rank the SEC football coaches for 2026-27. The results:

quote:

1. Kirby Smart, Georgia
Still the standard. Two nattys, 117-21 career, and 8 seasons with 11+ wins. Every ranking has him as the unquestioned No. 1.

2. Steve Sarkisian, Texas
Back-to-back CFP trips and has Texas looking like a legit title team. 0-3 vs Smart is the only knock.

3. Lane Kiffin, LSU
116-53 career, built Ole Miss into a playoff contender, now has LSU’s NIL muscle. Some fan polls even put him #1, but top-3 is consensus.

4. Kalen DeBoer, Alabama
Replacing Saban is impossible, but he took Washington to the title game and Bama’s roster is loaded. Ranked #7 nationally by ESPN.

5. Brian Kelly, LSU
SEC West title already, 20+ wins in 2 years at LSU. Fans argue he’s “too high” here, but the resume is strong.

6. Josh Heupel, Tennessee
Got the Vols to 10-3 and made Neyland loud again. Offense keeps him in the top half.

7. Eli Drinkwitz, Missouri
Back-to-back 10-win seasons with bowl wins over Ohio State and Iowa. Stock is way up.

8. Mark Stoops, Kentucky
Longest-tenured SEC coach. Floor is always 7-8 wins, ceiling is 10. Mr. Consistent.

9. Mike Elko, Texas A&M
New at A&M but his Duke turnaround + Aggie resources give him a high ceiling. Jury’s still out.

10. Hugh Freeze, Auburn
Recruiting is humming, but 2026 needs to show on-field results. Hot-seat chatter if it doesn’t.

11. Brent Venables, Oklahoma
10-3 last year helped, but OU expects championships. Another name that pops up on “warm seat” lists.

12. Shane Beamer, South Carolina
Beat some big teams, but consistency isn’t there yet. Solid builder, not top-tier.

13. Billy Napier, Florida
19-19 through 3 years. Has to win in 2025/2026 or the boosters will get loud.

14. Sam Pittman, Arkansas
Fan favorite but been on hot-seat lists for two years. Needs a bounce-back.

15. Clark Lea, Vanderbilt
9-27 at Vandy. Toughest job in the league, but record is the record.

16. Jeff Lebby, Mississippi State
First SEC HC job started in 2024. Still earning his spot.


It does this kind of stuff over and over.
From my perspective, whether I'm talking to a person or a machine or an alien or whatever, I need to see that there is a good method for getting to accurate information first before I'm even able to start looking at analysis or narrative.
That narrative you got means nothing to me. And actually, I think Kelly did far too much yelling at Nussmeier that I didn't see him do with Daniels.
This is just speculation, but I wonder if that had a psychological effect at all that made Nussmeier play a little "tighter". I was watching some of the highlights from the 2022 SECCG against Georgia, and he seemed more fluid and freewheeling against pressure than he did later when he became a full-time starter. Some of that did need to be tightened up, but as a full-time starter, I don't think he ever got to a point of having a good feel for when to run, when to escape for more time on a pass, etc. The potential was there, so I'd say that's at least partly a failure of Kelly not getting him to that point.

I wish AI would die so we don't have to see posts like this. It's always wrong.

This is the single dumbest draft narrative in the history of ignorant draft narratives. To actually conceive one of 31 teams in a billion dollar industry is going to "do a favor" for an assistant coach of a competing team and waste a 2nd-3rd round pick?

Hell, the Saints staff could have all go home today and left it up to Doug Nussmier to run their draft and HE wasn't taking his own kid unless he honestly thought he was worth the pick. The NFL isnt a plant turnaround where some purchasing agent throws a valve order to his deer camp buddy.

Oh really? The N in NFL has long been referenced to stand for Nepotism (as a reference to the insane amount of cronyism throughout the years).

You only have to look 48 hours ago to the Rams Les Snead to QB Ty Simpson and the history there.

Nuss sucked. Why? Doesn't matter. He suited up, played, and wasn't good.
Sorry

Especially with all the new receivers.

He seems like a nice enough guy, but with that lack of work effort, he has no future in the NFL.

Garrett Nussmeier at this point looks to go UDFA.

"Uncoachable" Narrative: The "uncoachable" sentiment stemmed from observations of his behavior, including tense moments on the sideline with Head Coach Brian Kelly. Reports noted instances where he appeared to ignore instructions, leading to public criticism from analysts.


You should take this bullshite down. fricking pure stupidity. Observations? Is that an Ai assessment? That’s a bunch of made up bullshite

No surprise it’s now Saturday and Nuss and Perk haven’t heard their names called. Drive and work ethic are key metrics the NFL looks for.

I watched the LSU games . One game Kelly wanted to talk to him . He ignored the head coach , walked right by him and sat down . That happened more than once . That is a bad look for Nuss , and I am not a Kelly fan . It shows lack of respect for the coaching staff . Scouts watch game tape .

Brian Kelly was hungover and angry all day long.....Nuss responded appropriately, IMO.

Kelly was the root of every problem this team had!

Even if true, Nuss should still have respected the position.

Horrible look for Nuss, which is partly why less talented QBs like Simpson and Allar leapfrogged him this draft.
