Official Gramps' Memorial Eternal OT Thread

I’ve said that time and time again.
This year has exceeded my expectations after Hypel told about 20 kids to hit the portal and sent the QB packing too.

Someone said that Hypel’s ceiling was 9-11 wins with playoffs every other year or too.
I’ll take that all day long during the NIL era. He ain’t perfect but he’s better than most.
I'm not on the fahr Hype train.

Talking about what went wrong and where improvements need to be made is fair.

If he doesn’t do blah blah he’s on the hot seat…..is moronic
No he’s not.
My university doesn’t owe me anything.
I’m grateful for what they’ve given me already.
And I’m thankful that we have the coaches we do across the board.

We need to be thinking about a basketball coach for when Barns retires at the end of the year

So you think Barnes will hang it up after this season?

Exactly this. 100% this. Every word.

We are very lucky to have CJH. Top 3 coach in this incredibly cutthroat SEC. If we can manage a playoff every other year which looks feasible...we will be among maybe a dozen teams in the nation that can pull that off.

I griped all night about our 15 runs for about 15yds up the middle throwing away all those 1st downs and putting us off schedule. We had THE top recruit on our board on campus for 27, TN RB Georges AND the top target for us at RB for 26 that we badly want to add to the class last minute...which we have been working on for well over a year. We had to run the ball quite a bit. I believe we had 58 total rushing yards though. You cant give up on the run and hope to land either kid...even though it was painfully obvious that we couldn't run vs their Dline. You have to run some just to slow down the pass rush too, Joey took a beating last night. Hes hurting today I bet. Still threw for almost 400yds.

I posted that and no simply being competitive is not good enough

I didn’t say being competitive was good enough.
2-2 in the last 4 vs Bama. A missed FG as time ran out vs Ga in a rebuild year and hammering LSWho at their place isn’t just being competitive.

Like it or not , the days of a Saban buying….recruiting the best team and out athleteing Errbody else is over. The Nil has leveled the field. Even vandy can make an occasional run. If we get a coach who can win 9-11 games year in and out then he’s a keeper. 10-11 wins is the playoffs every year.

Who out there right now other than Kirby….who’s on the verge of being a 9-11 wins coach, is better than Hypel and would take the Tennessee job?
