Is 8-4 all you people want around here?


Year 1 sure until we devolp into a yearly contender. Year 2 and beyond no.

Sounds perfectly rational. Except we got an easy draw and the conference was as bad as it has been in decades. This was the year to capitalize.

Good - Defense never quit and played above their heads in most games.

Injuries hurt us this year - especially on Offense - which was uninspiring but good enough to win in several important games. Does Coach E try to grow Coach K or cut bait? One or the other is required to take the next step…..

Coach Elko either made or allowed some bad calls on offense in key games this year based on who he wanted us to be and who we were (lots of high risk 4th down attempts in key games that failed/felt desperate and displayed lack of confidence in the team as a whole).

Need some difference makers on offense (skill and oline) and in the defensive backfield/LB corps.

Coach E -take care of your health - be an example - and elevate the team based upon this year's lessons….

I could be wrong…

Just looked at the stats (which don't include last night's game). Defense is #57 in total yards allowed.

We gotta give coach 2 more years to see what happens but after that, time to take tu's approach and keep trying until we find a true winner. Still might be Elko but if we are gonna keep running these same stupid up the middle plays and keep Klein we'd better get 2 more huge power backs like toombs and jtrain and just humongous o-linemen.

Had a lot of faith in Elko when he was hired


The November collapse has proven he's a dog**** coach



We're stuck w him a while but hopefully we can his sorry ass asap
I disagree. I think his OC sucks tho, and DC isn't good either.
You're probably right, but he did hire them. He needs to fix it.

Did you predict higher in the preseason?

if not, STFU




Yes. I said 9-3 (loss to LSU, SC, and Texas) because our schedule was insanely easy.

The thud over the last 3 real games drowned that out.

I think we know now the rebuild of the dumpster fire Jimbo left us was a taller order than originally thought. We have zero depth and even York said in the press conference that the program used to be a circus. I'm willing to be patient with Elko knowing what damage Jimbo did to the program.

Klein has got to go, though.


Used to be a circus!

It still is

What's really astonishing is the complete lack of discipline & fundamentals

This is really just a Jimbo repeat w an easier schedule


Look at our ****ing tackling.... it's horrendous.... Is wrapping up & driving through a tackle even taught anymore?


Not to mention how often we're out of position & subsequently out leveraged



We talked about strength & conditioning ad nauseam but don't understand basics of the game




Just a total overall failure from Elko

I agree with you. But if he does decide to move on from Klein, he's got to do it soon (like today).
