Happy for the guy who brought this program back from the dead after Woodward caved to the ncaa

Who do you think hired the guy who brought the program back?

No use addressing these people. Their opinions change from game to game. One series/game our coach/player is the greatest, the next they no longer deserve a job or starting spot.

After year 1 everyone was talking about how great Kelly would be because he took a roster that was beyond depleted to an SECCG. Never have they considered how long it truly takes guys like Harbaugh, Swinney, even Saban or Kirby to build a championship caliber program. Somehow, we should be the exception. Same point goes for McMahon.

I'd like to think it's a very small (but very loud) percentage of our fans. You know it's the kind of guys you listen to once and can tell they have no idea what they're talking about. It's beyond unrealistic, it's delusional.

BK screwed himself year 1 when he took 35 scholarship players to an SEC championship game and beat Alabama. It fast forwarded everyone's expectations.
Here's the facts,
1. This roster is a 9-3 (maybe 8-4) roster talent wise.

2. The guys he's had an opportunity to recruit are only sophomores some RS freshmen minus transfers.

3. I know this is a tired argument, but that doesn't make it any less true. It takes more than 3 years to recover from what was left behind by O. Recruits need to become juniors/seniors in order to truly see what BK's potential is. You can harp on transfer portal all you want (and I do believe you use it sparingly to fill immediate needs NOT entire teams) but rebuilding starts with high school recruits.

If our staff stays intact, we will develop these guys into a great unit.

My only gripe with BK so far is the loss to USC (who is a bad team), and our inability to scheme running plays. Aside from that he's done everything necessary to rebuild and develop us into a great program. Just takes time.

They hate the fact that Kelly takes blame when he deserves it, but also holds players/coaches accountable when they deserve it. It's almost like they expect him to take full accountability for everything that goes awry with the gameplan... that's not how teams get better.

A lot of this changes based on personnel. Since Jay's been here, we've had a solid 6-7 guys in every lineup who are capable of extra bases or putting one out any given pitch, so I guess he didn't want to run himself out of big innings. We also had horrible luck with executing hit and runs at times. We'll see how it changes with this lineup,

Agree to disagree I guess coach. I've watched plenty. You can certainly find some bad plays...you'll find more good ones guaranteed.

QB solid
RB deep
WR solid and deep (this is a top 5 WR corps nationally with 3 very talented receiving tight ends that could all produce)
OL arguably best in nation

DL unknown
LB Perkins, Weeks, Penn solid
DB Stamps good, others unknown

FIFY

Like I said all of the guys 3-10 can fluctuate and I expect any of them to pass Swinney up at some point. Guys 3-7 have just had more recent success. I don’t necessarily think any 1 coach is consistently better than the other. Just how I see them in the present. We’ll see how good most of these guys are in the SEC.

Side note: I am very high on Norvell. I think that dude is an outstanding coach.

Figured it was either that or a punter
