You know what, **** it. This place sucks. @Freak you let the inmates run the asylum for too long and now anything other than "WE SUCK, HEUPEL SUCKS, BANKS SUCKS" is met with hostility. I may have clapped back at a few of you but I only did it when I was insulted first. Most of you guys are cool @Go Fight Win @SoilVol @Orange. etc , but too many of the FF guys who wander over here are miserable old dudes who act like winning a championship is the only way you'll ever be happy. I come here because I want to talk football, but what you get is a bunch of undiagnosed, ungrateful drunks who get excited when we lose so that they can continue to relish in the shared misery that makes you feel like you're part of something. I've got people in my life that need me, so I can't continue with this BS anymore. I hope it clicks for you guys someday. When we're back to 5-7, 6-6 every year because we ran off the guy who pulled us out of the ashes, I hope you'll be able to appreciate what we had. Later guys. Enjoy your outbursts over the coaches not signing your "must have" portal players.

Chill. You can count on one hand the number of posters in the RF who want Heupel gone just like you can count on one hand the number of people relishing getting our teeth kicked in today. You seem to be confusing harsh criticism - much of which is warranted - with calls for Heupel to get canned. Those are very different things, yet you’re lumping them together.

Heup has done well here. Almost everyone acknowledges and appreciates him for that. We’re far ahead of where we were when he arrived. When you go winless against ranked teams in a season and have lost your last 6 to ranked opponents, though, people are going to get fired up and criticize the coach as they should.

8-4 is better than I expected after Nico drama.

The way we lost the 4 games has been infuriating. Won in the Swamp & the passing game returned to form, gonna focus on that. Really hope we get a good bowl game & kick the **** out of whoever we play.

Next year (especially if we get Joey back) is going to be a very important season for Heupel. Year 6, coming off a 8 win team that was nearly half freshmen. Biggest growth for players is typically in year 2…

Texas tech all the way now.

Proved how to win.

Go spend on the portal and spend $$$.

Our staff is too soft and didn’t try to improve over players. Go out and buy the best players you can even if it replaces a decent current player.

Coaches are soft and this team was soft. Need killers and coaches who demand excellence.

Heupel can either adjust and become better or keep with status quo. If no real changes are made, he is our mark Richt and we will likely hover around 8-10 wins a year.

I was ROASTED on here 4/5 weeks ago for calling him our Richt. Careful now 😂 🤣

I want him to win and be successful.

But I have the same concerns.

Can’t be. He’s a genius who’s here to educate the rest of us.
Couldn’t possibly be confused, just ask him he will tell you so.

No matter whether your opinion is positive or negative, there are times when it’s going to be well accepted and other times when it’s going to be poorly received.

I wish people on here would figure that out.

The last 6 were UGA ‘24, Ohio St ‘24(champs), UGA ‘25, Bama ‘25, OU ‘25, and Vandy ‘25.

Common theme is that Banks has gotten schooled in at least 4 or 5 of these games.

UGA ‘24
OSU ‘24
UGA ‘25
bama ‘25 (to a degree)
Vandy ‘25

I also think sharing info once is enough, if no one reads the article then that’s on them. Move on.
