That’s just BS. You use “your eyes.” I’m providing the facts. Facts aren’t a narrative- that’s asinine.

Literally no facts were stated. You posted stars and I said three three stars start and one four star. The other four stars are subs or don’t play. That completely contradicts what you were trying to prove and that all our stars were on the DL. No, they are being developed and that is why they look better. Those are facts.

Lol. That is how it works. We played SC. Thise teams played SC. We stopped them one time. Never made them settle for a field goal.

Look, you can defend that ineptitude all you want. I can guarantee you he'll get a maximum of one more year. We won't be as good on offense next year, it can't carry the defense like this season. He won't make it past next season.

That line of thinking is just off. You can’t respond to my question.

I’ve never said the coaching was great, but if you can’t agree that our talent sucks, then you are fooling yourself. It’s bad. Worst unit and it’s the worst recruiting ranked unit! Imagine that!

I am not sure how that ranking is determined, but any rankings on yards is no good. There are rankings that have this year's defense better than last year's. I am not interested or have the time to dive into it. We gave up 30+ seven times last year. We have given up 30+ three times this year. That's the key to 3 more wins.

I am not saying that the defense doesn't need changes, but we also need better players. I don't understand how people can argue otherwise.

I have long been an advocate for “better players”. Been involved in many a “stars” discussion here.

We need better players, and a better scheme.

Deflect, deflect, deflect. The star rankings are facts. They all rotate or you haven’t watched. Thomas, Baron, and Young play a lot. Bumphus gets hurt. I literally listed 8 guys who were 4 stars.

You don’t know a fact from an opinion.

Our talent is sub par but is it worse than Charlotte? What about GA Southern? Vandy? I can go on.

Gonna call my shot
UGA blasts LSU next Saturday, they’re out.
OSU beats Michigan by 30, they’re out.
Kansas State runs through TCU, they’re out.
The fighting Cadillacs kick a last second fg to beat Bama taking them to 9-3, they’re out.
UNC smokes Clemson in the ACC title game, they’re out.
ND beats USC by 10, they’re out.
USC turns it around and beats Oregon in the PAC12 championship keeping Oregon outside the top 10.
Vols beat Vandy 60-6.. Joe throws 6 TD’s and rushes for 1…Defense holds Vandy to 150 passing, 56 rushing
On selection Sunday,
1. UGA
2. OSU
3.Vols sneak in
4. Michigan sneaks in

Then the rapture takes place

90th ranked defense last year
100th ranked defense this year

That is horrendous. No matter how you spin. That’s coaching. Period.

Defense took a step backwards. Offense showed growth with new players being developed and wrinkles being added. If we want to have Heupels offense we need to double the DCs salary and bring in a top 10 coach at that position.

Stop what? They don’t play the freshmen. They stick to the vets, no matter how bad they are. Martinez has always done this.

What freshmen? We signed one CB and one S in the '22 class. We converted a freshman WR to S. The intent was always for those guys to redshirt. They've played basically every other DB on the roster, including a Walk on.

Are you ten? Serious question. I feel like I’m arguing with my toddler.

Players in top 300 on On3 (no consensus). I may have mis counted on some, so this a rough idea on how we compare to other SEC teams. Not using the consensus because On3 rankings only matter (best website)

UGA - 15, they will add Jordan Hall, M'Pemba

Bama - 14, they will add Keon Keeley, James Smith, Qua Russaw

LSU - 14, they will add Desmond Ricks

FL - 11, they will add a few more

Vols - 11 (Including Ramil and Hobbs, if we get them)

USCjr - 8

Need to get that up to 11 with room to add a few more. If we didn't add Ramil and Hobbs that puts us more towards USCjr.
