Thanks to coach O, we are stuck in this position. It’s a total lack of talent and just ignoring the roster. Don’t give me that shite we are loaded with talent, you’re talking about a team that had to start max Johnson for two years.

Go back and watch the bowl game last year.
Then throw in a bunch of transfers from all over. They have minimal experience and limited time playing together. If you expect big things from this team you are delusional.

Kelly did not say that. He has been very careful not to say that. He has even refrained from bashing JD. He took the blame but from watching him on the sidelines he knows JD isn’t getting it done but as Kelly said it’s what we have right now.

If you think this team isn’t lacking in talent then you need to take off the purple and gold glasses.

By the way, 19,20 and 21 were top 5 recruiting classes
now look and see how many of those kids have contributed or transferred out. Lots of misses in recruiting by O and company besides the 17 class.

No it isn’t. You just can’t seem to understand that it isn’t about the guys we have. We have talented players on this roster. But we don’t have enough, in the right places…yet. It isn’t a knock on the players we have. It’s a recognition that other teams have more, including depth.

O recruited stars, he didn’t evaluate them properly as to character and potential.


O was a phenomenal recruiter. Generally when he wanted a player, he had a great chance of landing him.

I don’t think he was a very good identifier of talent on positions outside of the DL. Neither am I, but I’m not paid hundred of thousands of dollars or even millions to coordinate, identify, and recruit.
