If we don't have a substantial improvement in OL, QB and Defense I don't honestly even see a winning record next year. We were 8-5 this year but 0-5 against teams that were better than .500. The offense wasn't great. Granted, we lost Nico very late in the prep for the year and only had 2...

This is, statistically, the correct answer. The offenses we faced last year were garbage. In most games the yards we allowed were roughly on par with what that team was averaging through the year. Except we usually allowed more passing and fewer rush yards. NCState was really the only outlier...

Spyre certainly *was* when NIL first started popping up - is it still though? 247 listed Spyre as the #10 NIL at $15mil annual funding before the CSC approval requirements hit this year. That's behind Texas, OSU, LSU, UGA, A&M, Michigan, Alabama, Florida and Clemson. However, TBF, the gap...

On that - OSU AD brought in ~$280mil and we're estimated to have brought in ~$202mil. However, that's AD as a whole and we're stretched thin trying to pay for top-flight football, basketball (mens and womens) and baseball programs. Football programs are a bit more filtered. NYTimes has overall...

Remember the AD that hired Franchione, Price and Shula initially wanted to hire Rich Rodriguez. They completely lucked into Saban and it cost them dropping a $4mil/year pricetag on him. That was double the going rate at the time with most top-flight coaches making 2-3mil tops.

Tennessee coach - no - but Bob Stoops did go 7-4 in year 7. He also won a national title in year 2 and was 12 wins the 3 previous years before going 8-4 though. Was 0-2 versus ranked in the regular season but finished by beating no.6 Oregon in a bowl game. Richt went 8-4 in the regular season...

Is that acceptable to you in year 6?

Have you seen the 2026 schedule? 3 questions: * What honest record do you think he'll get * What record do you think a guy in YEAR 6 making $9mil/year should get * What record would be fireable for you, given he's in Year 6

This team looked more like a late era Dooley/Jones team. Clueless, weak and slow.

OP: Riley hasn't done well at USC You: 90-27 in 9 seasons (overall record) Me: Overall USC record - also you can't read You: CoNfErEnCe ReCoRd

Reading comp is important. He said "win at USC". Riley is 35-17 at USC. 19-8 in Pac-12 with no titles and 16-9 in Big-10.

Issues I have that are a direct issue with coaching: * Overall categorial defensive regression * DBs still out of position * Best DBs have been transfers in * S&C issues - way too many injuries and speed/strength aren't SEC-class Beyond the above - Aguilar's comment about a lack of...

Best we could legitimately do is Golesh. Competing with LSU, Florida, Penn State is rough.

I see our team losing by 14-17.

I don't see this team going to Gainesville and winning. After that the wheels could come off.
