yes, but there was a significant exodus of players from that 2023 roster, incl 3 major players who followed Fritz. Sumrall had to work the portal to backfill roster.

Alot of people don't realize Sumrall took over a Troy team that was 5-6 under Chip Lindsey two straight seasons...Sumrall went 11-2 and 12-2, winning back to back Sunbelt championships. Took Tulane job after going 23-4 at Troy...

Kiffin has not spoken to his team, bc young people can’t keep secrets about anything, certainly not over 100 plus 25+ coaches/support staff.

They are waiting for the outcome of the iron bowl before putting any of this in motion. OM has NEVER played in SECCG. Not gonna announce prematurely, to only have AUB pull the upset…

Lastly, maybe Kiffin and Sexton were able to convince Carter that it’s a win-win for him to allow Kiffin to coach them in the playoffs. If LSU has a legal option for Kiffin to sign a legally binding future contract with punitive penalty (like $20M), then I can see them allowing him to coach OM in playoffs.

60% LSU
30% UF
10% stays

I just don’t see how you walk it back after you send your family to tour UF Sunday, then send them to tour LSU Monday.

He has had a contract extension with a 50% raise on his desk for weeks, salary comparable to offers from LSU and UF. You don’t send the entourage to tour if you intend to stay, and you don’t send them unless you have already decided you are leaving…just having them provide personal input and ensure neither new option offers social dealbreakers.

OM has told him that they need to know up front and asap if he intends to move on, and they are preparing for that likelihood…my intuition is if Kiffin leaves, Golding will be interim and coach the playoff game(s) and they will hire Sumrall, put him in place off the field and allow him to get after assembling some of the staff and recruiting.

He’s just confirming the reports that SW is out as soon as the new president is announced…

Zero

7 for sure…lose out and go 5-7, he’s gone.
Maybe 6…beat WKy, but lose out in conference to go 6-6, he could be gone then.

Tell me I’m wrong…Kelly does not come across as an alpha male. No one on our staff comes across that way.
Kelly is on his second OC and 2nd DC and isn’t through his 3rd season yet. He ran off Tommy Moffit, which appears to have been a huge loss, as we are quite weak in the trenches on both sides. Brad Davis has to be held accountable too for the lack of run blocking ability. We have large humans on the OL. The lack of technique combined with the absence of aggressive demeanor and grit has black holed our run game. We had almost a year to prepare our O line to learn and master traditional run block schemes to transition away from JD’s run game. We cannot run block consistently.

Although BB is in the first yr of implementing his system, his defense has incementally regressed. We had TWO WEEKS to prepare for MILROE, who we 100% know is gonna run a lot, yet we look like we never saw him play ever. POORLY COACHED and poor technique.

Now, if the true reason is talent, that falls on Kelly and Co as well. He’s on the verge of his 3rd full recruiting class…plus the portal, and he should be able to rebuild the roster, especially on defense.

Nuss has to become more disciplined and mature with decision making with the ball. He demoralizes the defense when he turns it over, especially on bonehead decisions. Can’t afford to be so damn careless with the football.

Kelly is on the verge of really digging a deep hole if this ‘25 class doesn’t produce equal to the hype. Skill guys and BU are fantastic, but if we don’t drastically improve in the trenches and on defense quick, gonna have to get used to L’s like that vs the likes of Bama, UGA, and others that are far more physical in those areas.

Confirmed.

Need 6 for Tuesday vs Nicholls St.
Looking for sec 214-218.
Could use a parking pass as well.
