If Florida was the only loss we had I might believe this bull crap. What's the excuse for Georgia State? And Vanderbilt last year?I don't disagree. Sadly, it seems that we continue to say this every year. It's always give it a few years, we'll turn it around. I hope you're right. That said, I have strong doubts that the current HC will be able to get this done. The glaring mistake that Fulmer and other AD's have made is we continue to hire people that have zero or very little experience running a Power 5 conference school. Maybe with some schools this works, but with us it obviously hasn't. I don't know what the answer is, but I doubt very seriously the current HC will successfully rebuild this program.
Something needs to change. What is it?
Factually, I believe you are right; however, year after year during the boy butch years, we heard, "Boy butch is a super-duper-extra great Recruiter", or something similar, almost daily. The boy butch supporters, were wrong about boy butch's coaching ability, and his recruiting ability. Now, they have transferred their unnatural love for boy butch to CP! The same arguments for keeping boy butch, are being dusted off, and with little more than a name change, are being presented as the reason we should keep CP for at least ten years.Nice try. But the reason we may trail in the series to Ga has more to do with our recruiting the last 10 years.
I too supported CP, gave him a pass on last year, as anyone who was fair would have done. I felt he was going to be a real old time, ass kicking, no BS type Football coach, you know-the type of guy we've needed for a decade. I was wrong, there comes a point where you realize you've been sold a bill of goods. I'm past that point, I have little doubt you'll get there too.In fairness I support each UT coach to the fullest, but from what I've seen this year is terrible. I've always said you need to give 4 years to a coach to get his system in and players, but I don't see where he has improved from last year. Even the tone of the players to me seems disconnect,.
