O’Gara: The realistic path for 2024 to not be Sam Pittman’s last season at Arkansas
Arkansas had the second lowest composite talent index last year ahead of only Vandy. Upgrading the talent level is the only thing that can turn this program around. There are teams that over perform or under perform their talent level but it is really difficult in the SEC to have a winning record annually with the second lowest talent. Over the long haul you are what your talent level says us you are.
I hear the “he is a winner” take a lot. His team won a lot of games but it was because of defense and a running game. He wasn’t someone that put the team on his back.
It will be impossible for Ole Miss to win the west being the SEC eliminated divisions for 2024, but I get your point.
The only way he is going to get the reps he needs is to stay in college. Guys that weren’t productive in college rarely make it in the NFL.
It’s interesting that he doesn’t have an offer from LSU.
Like Negan it is best to just scroll by as soon as you see Buford unless you like reading the curse of Orgeron for the millionth time. He has nothing interesting to say and his attempts at comedy are pathetic.
The coaches number one job is winning games. If they make players the best they can be then it’s icing on the cake. There are very few people that can tell you the graduation rates or the status of former players of their favorite team but almost all can tell you the won loss record and if they have won the conference or national championship.
Regardless of who asked them to remove the shirts it’s a result of UT complaining about it in the past so they deserve to be mocked.
Your whole negative LSU act is beyond old. You have no creativity or information to add to any thread. You are like the kid that the teacher makes him write “the curse of Ogeron” a thousand times as a punishment.
The stars aligned for Michigan this year. Seventeen of their starters were 4-6 year players and five starters would not have been eligible if not for the free 2020 year. I think there were 30 seniors/grads on the team. They might have enough players returning on defense to be good again on that side of the ball only because of the free year but the offense will be gutted and they don’t have a “just reload” roster left. They are coming off of a NC but that was a long build to get their and competing for another NC will not be easy especially considering they will need to win more than two tough conference games in the future. They just re-ranked this year’s recruiting class and LSU was 5th and he has a bunch of 5 stars committed for next year including the top qb, top rb, and top wr. Why would he leave?
LSU had the best offense in the country so a drop off should be expected especially when you lose three first round draft choices. The offensive line should be very good as they are only replacing the center and are going into the third year with the same group, the running back room looks better, and all of the tight ends are back. The wr are talented but outside of Lacy haven’t been given a lot of opportunities. Nuss has been good when given the chance but if he has a Milton type season then maybe the TN comparison is valid.
Death, taxes, and another Napier on the hot seat article.
Most college football fans watch the games due to their allegiance to the school. Division I and II are smaller schools that are not the state flagship schools and have a small alumni base. People are going to watch D1 or not watch at all.
It’s as good a hire as can be expected. The southern roots thing is overblown. The guy can flat out coach and he is still pretty young.
I’m not a Bama fan in fact I’m the opposite but this is a very good hire. If you have read anything about him then you know that he relates very well to his players and everyone around him. He won four consecutive NAIA titles. I don’t care what level it is he is understands winning. He is a highly respected offensive mind.
It’s rarely the guy that is on the media’s list that gets hired.
Bama went through a period where they hired a string of ex Bama players and that strategy failed.
If Michigan sets the record or comes close to setting the record for number of players drafted they will take a huge step back. They won mostly because almost all of the starters are seniors with a ton of playing experience. This isn’t UGA or Bama where they just reload. It would be more like LSU after they set the record for number of players drafted in 2019.
It takes time to rebuild. The encouraging thing is he has the #1 qb, #1 rb, and #1wr committed for next years class.
He has the most wins of any active coach and has only had two losing seasons in 32 years all without developing players. He must be a magician.
Haha the whole BK to Michigan thing is a joke. He came to LSU because he felt he could recruit better talent. He has the #1 qb, #1 rb, and #1 wr committed for next years class. I’m sure he is looking to go to Michigan
Numbers 1-10…improve high school and transfer portal recruiting. Arkansas had the second least talented team in the sec last year according to the composite talent index. You are what your talent level says you are and they are proving that.
I don’t hear a lot about the effect of the 2020 year. Nix, Penix, Daniels, Travis, and 5 Michigan starters would have not have been eligible this year if it weren’t for the free year. What would those teams look like without those players? I seriously doubt that Washington would have made the playoffs without Penix. Michigan beat Bama by a slim margin. Did those 5 starters tip the balance?
It’s easy for you to criticize a player for opting out of a meaningless bowl game. You aren’t the one who could lose generational money by getting hurt.
The SEC was not as strong as usual but it’s relative. The OOC record is an invalid argument. It is rarely apples to apples matchups.
They played three ranked teams and lost by a combined score of 92-0. It just shows how bad the B1G is outside of Michigan, OSU, and Penn St.
If you played the bowl games in Week 0 how many bowl games would you need? 65? Would it eliminate the home and home on campus games? Nice job Danny make a suggestion that can’t be implemented.
Penn St was less than desirable. It’s not like it was a close game where a call tipped the balance. Maybe someday Franklin will win a big game so he won’t have to whine.
He got almost all of the top Louisiana players but the talent wasn’t as good as usual. Next year Louisiana is loaded so he should have a much better class.
