If only we had gotten Briles. He don't need no stinkin stars. Alas, I think ole chaney will need a lot of talent to compete. Unfortunately im not sure we reach uga/bama level soon.

Gotta hope we can get back to relevance then hit on an explosive OC in a few years when chaney ready to retire.

I'm still trying to figure out why some people are talking about 10 wins next year based off this signing class. I know this is a great class for us but damn. Let's get them in the S&C program for a couple of years and then turn them loose on the SEC. We'll get to 10 wins but I doubt it will be next year.

Happens every year. It's a temporary insanity that takes hold. Symptoms quickly fade by the second or third game of the season. Definitely gone by the end of the UF game.

Everyone talking about our record next year...To me, it is just so hard to guess at this point. Both of our lines have a lot of work to do, between now and our first game.

A lot of guys returning on the OLine, but I am not even sure that is a good thing, given how bad we were at times last year. Obviously, we have recruited very well here, but it is asking a lot to expect freshmen to make your OLine much better than the previous year.

On defense, it looks like we are basically starting over, with the exception of Emmit Gooden. We have a couple of JUCO's coming in, but we have no idea how good they can be. We may have some good ones waiting in the wings, but who knows how good they are at this point?

Our line coaches have their work cut out for them. I am not saying we can't have a good season, but it all hinges on how our lines develop.

The OL has to be better than last year. Pretty much everyone back plus Kennedy returning from injury. Even if neither Crouch or Wright start the line will improve. If either or both of them look like Trey Smith did as a freshman than there could be a large step forward. I think having an average SEC O-line next year is certainly possible.

Agree DL is a huge question mark. They'll need either instant impact from newbies or players that are already on campus and haven't produced before to start doing so just to be decent.

The schedule sets up much better this year, and I think several of the mid-tier SEC teams will take a step back (Missouri, Vandy, UK). So even if the lines struggle I could still see improvement.
