Odd I know but I’m giving Vandy their deserved kudos for beating an P4 FBS school.
It’s the second best SEC win of the week
Kentucky has the best win of the week out of this group.
LSU doesn’t get dinged much for their loss in Vegas. aTm is treated similarly.

There was not a lot that happened in week #1 that changed my opinion other than I think that Vandy might be able to compete in a few SEC games.

10. Oklahoma (I am not a believer yet anyway)
11. Auburn
12. Mississippi State
13. Arkansas
14. South Carolina

If Mullen was likable he’s still at Florida and they are way better. Crazy?
Yeah I know but they do have the second best win of the week and we are told to rank them after week 1
I expect them to regress to the mean.
I've never understood people caring if a coach is likable. Short of off-field scandals, I only care about wins and losses.
Exactly, it’s a stupid and dishonest concept. What does it mean ? He kisses the @SS of the media and is phony in public ? WGAS , what kind of coach is he good or bad, does he win, does he know what he’s doing ?
It’s incredible how bad Florida is with their resources and recruiting base in-state.
Caring is a strong word. Likable leaders do better with players and fans. I guess I could have just said if he had been a better leader. Most good leaders manage to be likable (I.e. attract people) while setting achievable goals and holding them accountable

To be clear, I don’t think you’re wrong: If Mullen were more likable, he might still be the coach at Florida. He had three good years, followed by one bad year. If you didn’t like him, you wanted him fired. If you did like him, you probably wanted him to get a fifth year. And the likable narrative plays into the can’t recruit narrative (the latter not being based on actual results).
And of course being a good leader within the program (among players and coaches) is extremely important. But that shows up on the scoreboard, not in how likable you are among fans.
I’m just saying I would have been the Florida fan telling other Florida fans they are playing with fire calling for Mullen to be fired.
They are terrible.
It’s gonna be a long year for the Golden Eagles.
Kentucky was just more impressive against Southern Miss than South Carolina was against Old Dominion and I think either of them would have beaten the FCS teams.
I thought about placing Kentucky behind LSU & aTm but decided against it.
