Just saw a star on Twitter... Vandy has scored only 11 offensive touchdowns in 11 games against teams not names Austin Peay.

Interesting that Les will likely have another job day one and Fulmer never got any major offers (or did he?).

I agree HG, I just can’t imagine who they have in their back pocket already that would be a instant “homerun” hire and upgrade.

I do know that not having the Mad Hatter and the HBC in the SEC next year really will suck.

They really believe Jimbo is in play.

Les will be paid 15mil to go make CBS watchable again on Sat. Not a bad parachute package.

According to Joe Schad, boosters at LSU have agreed to pay the 15-20 million dollar buyout.

He also said it is very likely to happen.

The defense, running game, and special teams have improved to top notch level. I've been very critical of the passing game, offensive scheme, play calling etc but now I'm starting to believe it's not play calling philosophy but hand cuffed play calling to an extent to play to Dobbs strengths and weaknesses. His strengths are running the read and making plays with his legs, hitting some timely passes when needed and managing the game with minimal mistakes. As soon as QD (only a couple times I know) comes in we go down the field. I think Butch's offense will always take on the identity of his QB. From LaFevour to Calaros to Worley to Dobbs, who knows what it truly looks like. I cant think of one game that the offense cost us this year except maybe Arkansas. So I think it's ok to say Butch has done really well so far.

Finally someone with an insightful post in regards to the offense.

@wesrucker247: Butch on state of Neyland Stadium grass: "We’re anticipating the field’s gonna be there, and we’re gonna play on it on Saturday."



Hilarious

@wesrucker247: Butch: We will honor Butch Maggitt on Senior Day. We’ll talk to some fourth-year juniors about their fifth years. We’ll see. #Interesting



Blair

Anyone else he could be referring to?

Good post. The conservative play calling appears to be tied to Dobbs. My concern is Dormady. There have been rumors that he is unhappy with his status and playing time. If he transfers, we will be losing a potential franchise QB. While he is not the prototypical dual-threat QB, he is by far and away the best passing QB we have. He also reads defense well. When you have an outstanding stable of RBs, you don't necessarily need a dual-threat. Being mobile enough to avoid the rush is enough. I know this sounds a bit crazy to some on VN, but we might need to move to a pro-style QB next year. Also the OL should have had enough time to upgrade their pass blocking by next fall.
