Crazy to me to see how all the talking heads….

[OG Goat Holder]

…..are now saying there’s so much excitement and fun going on in practice, that wasn’t there there last year. Are you kidding me? The water toting was at an all time high this time last year. I even saw Rosey say that Arnett didn’t look confident at SEC media days, and they were all blowing him a year ago. It’s insane.

I’m too old for the BS, man. I don’t know what Lebby will do but you guys who pay for subscriptions, holy shlt. Just recognize the reality. The business of this stuff goes well beyond NIL.

I’m not saying we win more than 4-5 games, but the spring game had more life and energy than any point last year. It’s easy to think that would carry over.

 

[Seinfeld]

It's like clockwork any time we bring in a new coach. We're suddenly disciplined, ready to strain, and put in the work! Guys are showing up 30 min early to practice and leaving 30 min late! It's like the Remember the Titans LEFT SIDE STRONG SIDE scene lived out in a real life!

I'll wait to see the this with my own two eyes before making any judgment

Remember that preseason interview with Rosebowl, some lady interviewing him. if I remember right she asked him if 8 games was a reasonable amount of wins and he said no that was the floor. I could swear he predicted 10 wins last season.

 

[patdog]

I’ve been through this enough to know that every new coach is the best thing ever before he’s coached his first game. We won’t know anything until after the Florida game at the earliest. At least not anything good.

Some folks act like Rosebowl got his nickname by being a top notch prognosticator....

Ok, let me put it another way. When this team is predicted to win more than 5 games, I'll think about listening to all this off season kum ba ya rhetoric. Until then, it's just some combination of self promotion and hunting for clicks. I still vividly remember John Blake talking about all the unbelievable talent that we had in '03 prior to going 2-10

Wow. Just curious, what's Rosie's opinion on his nickname? Does he accept it? Last year's prediction now this shows he certainly doesn't run from it.

We knew about Arnett after the FCS opening game. It’s wasn’t when it won’t work.

Ask Croom.

Dude, you should hear Little Rock Arkansas sports talk shows. The Razorbacks would roll the KC Chiefs every preseason.

Arnett win that game 48-7. I started having doubts in the 2nd half of the Arizona game. It was pretty obvious after South Carolina.

edit: but you’re right. There were signs even in the SE LA game. If there’s such a thing as an ugly 48-7 win, that was one.

The Arnett spring game was a clusterfuck from start to finish.

They won’t be that good. But Petrino is a top offensive coordinator. That will be a very tough game for us. One thing for sure, it won’t be 7-3 this year with Petrino & Lebby.

Listened to bratton on sec podcast. Arkansas offense is going to be pretty good. Good D line good secondary. Questionable linebackers. They are picking them to beat oklahoma State and roll into Auburn 3-0.

Yes they were having trouble first half with SELA , Western Michigan dominated for much of the game. It was like watching pee wee football.

 

[mcdawg22]

You have to be a little giddy. The new conditioning coach is the best we have ever had. The offseason workouts were the hardest the guys ever worked.

 

[RockyDog]

I think that many people were hopeful that the offense would be more than a one trick pony. Nobody had any clue that Marks couldn’t hit a hole, the ol would be total trash and the elimination of the dreaded splits wouldn’t matter. All this rhetoric about the RTGDF people wanted to totally flip the offense is ridiculous. People just wanted an offense that could put up more than 80 yards rushing per game and the RB didn’t have to catch 100 swing passes. Unfortunately Arnept had no clue, Barbary didn’t know how to call an offense and Noodle continued to noodle. It was a perfect storm of crap and we saw offensive levels not seen since Crooms

 

[GloryDawg]

I assume the excitement is with the new offense.

 

[60sdog]

I’ve been an ardent supporter since 1957. Went through the Shira debacle in the late 60’s. Was at the 74-0 game in Houston in 69. Seen the optimism over and over again. Year after year. There’s always lots of hype, but usually there’s disappointment at the end. This year, it seems there’s even less possibility. Don’t get your hopes up.

 

[BoDawg.sixpack]

My favorite thread of the year is always opening day. That first field goal that sails wide right brings out the most entertainment value in the interwebs.

Speak for yourself assclown. “Nobody had any clue”. BULLLLLLSHIZZZ

“Gotz to muh runz da bawl mane”

Reasonable people knew that we had a real, elite coach in 2022. We replaced him in MSU fashion with a guy who thought he could do it better and had the support of the mouth breathers, mainly because we were scared we’d lose him. So Miss Stake.

We’d have been better with Spurrier Jr running the show and Jett Johnson calling the defense from the huddle.

It will forever mystify me the way people get so hung up on how we get yards. A yard is a yard. Who gives a **** if it's a rushing yard or a passing yard? Our soon-to-be Hall of Fame head coach realized that it didn't matter.

But yeah, so many football 'experts' knew more than the guy who'd had success everywhere he went.

 

[The Cooterpoot]

It's about scoring, not yardage, and Leach was going backwards in that, so everyone should've seen that crap coming

I had a feeling when everyone but our media did not have high hopes for that team. I think a big difference in Lebby is the national media actually likes the hire.

Petrino could be their interim head coach by the time that game is played.

National media never thinks we're going to be any good. They didn't even give us much hype in 2014. If I remember correctly, many picked us to go 6-6 even in 2015.

We would have been a good team last year with Leach. The problem, as we all know, is that Hard Head Arnett and his brigade thought they were the reason those Leach teams were good, so they changed everything, and look what we got. And all the media and most of our fans just ate it up.....right until that opening game.

Now, we're hearing that everything has changed, etc., yet again, and things were so bad last year. The only truth in the whole deal is that it's all bullshlt.

As I've said before, we're rarely as bad as they say we're going to be or as good as we think we're going to be.

 

[maroonmania]

The only concrete thing to assess was the Spring game and based on that we did look tons better than anything we did last year (including last year's Spring game). Beyond that, its all hyperbole until we actually start playing games. So just take everything with a grain of salt until the season starts.

His offense had gone backwards and so had his recruiting. It was a bad situation all the way around.

Wins are the ultimate statistic, 4 in a COVID year playing freshman with an all sec schedule, 7-6 4-4 sec in first full season, 9-4 4-4 in his second full season.
Not quite the disaster you are Claiming.


Dan only exceeded 4-4 once in 9 years Of sec play.

Leach did this in the portal, nIL era. how many years do you think it will take for this program to get back to 9-4 ?

Mike Leach died tragically nearly 2 years ago. He’s no longer with us.

He beat Tulsa, Vandy, and MO in the Covid year along with having a DC at LSU who got fired for being stupid. There was nothing special there.
He couldn't score on Alabama and a beat teams with coaching changes coming and going on. He didn't beat good teams he just had a better schedule with coaching turnover. Struggled with KY & OM and we won't talk about Memphis. He also didn't win 9 games as a coach at State. He finished with a losing conference record like everybody else. Mullen got an insane SEC with an AL dynasty.

Ya'll quit being clowns. I'm talking about after Leach died. All the mouth breathers were so happy that their pet Arnett, who by damn was the main reason Leach won, was going to get to take over so we could RuN dA bAwL again and correct all the problems we had during the Leach regime.

FARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

And the idea that Leach was going backwards and and his recruiting was suffering was the biggest load of horseshlt told during that time. The only thing that wasn't going well was his health, as we all found out, and that was a quick deterioration. Everything else with the program was just fine, except for our mouth breathing fan support who couldn't handle anything different.

Remember - this fanbase wanted Mullen gone, less than a year before 2014 started.
