Hayes: The SEC helped build Dan Lanning into a winner. Now, Oregon is a threat to win it all
No coma Mr. Mexico. Rather lamenting the fact that In the NIL era, we will no longer be able to judge a programs success based on the quality of coaching, facilities, infrastructure, alumni support, academics etc… Instead, it will be who bought and paid for the best collection of players. Case in point will be what happens in the Grove at Oxford. They look like the SEC West favorite in 2024. Welcome back to 1962.
I’m sure the Nike NIL money had nothing to do with their recent success….
I guess Georgia won't ask him to pass block.....
Napier needs to call Charlie Strong. Send Armstrong packing and let Charlie do the rest….
Napier could fix this defense very quickly. Pick up the phone and call Charlie Strong. Strong is a defensive analyst at Alabama and is looking for his next position. Some of the best defenses UF ever had were when Strong was DC.
Syracuse probably expected him to recruit…..
Welcome to the SEC Coach. It just means more to everyone…..
Balancing the classroom portion of the program at LSU is certainly not as important as it is at NDU….
Agree with RonMexico1. We’ve seen the last of Bowers. Too bad, such a talent that all of us SEC fans have certainly appreciated. Good luck to the kid as he should be an All Pro performer wherever he gets drafted.
Everyone thinks Arch went to the wrong school. IDK, but he wouldn’t be starting at Bama or Georgia either….
His scouting report out of UF was as follows:
“He runs great routes and has decent hands. Unfortunately, he possesses only average speed. Good possession receiver, but not a true #1 go to guy.”
Hopefully, the change of scenery will help him…
Obviously this team is a year away from making some real noise in the SEC East, but you have to like where they are trending with some exciting young players and a competent coaching staff on defense.
No dog in this fight, but UF is a very large school, in the highest populated state in the SEC (for now). Also has the largest foundation due mostly to Gatorade. So there must be some bias along those lines.
He’s definitely playing!
What about John Mackey? The annual award for best TE is named for him? Right?
First and 10: Forget defending the national title, Kirby Smart needs to defend Georgia’s honor first
I know Georgia fans think this is a hit piece, but the truth hurts. The AJC piece was also picked up by USA Today. So there is enough “truth” validated by sources for these accusations to put this story out. As the HBC at Georgia, Kirby Smart is the CEO of the program. It now falls on him to fix the shortfalls to program. If not, he risks becoming the next Urban Meyer - a great coach, but flawed individual.
Didn’t LSU have to vacate some of those wins? My bad, that was in football……
It’s becoming apparent now that until Lagway is ready to play, CBN plans to run the ball and play great defense. Might not win a playoff game that way, but will build some momentum around the program. The recruiting results for 2024 are impressive and far better than anyone expected.
The kid's father felt disrespected by all the love for DJ Lagway. Consequently, the kid got flipped by guaranteed NIL money. Nothing more, nothing less.
OMG. Let's hope this is true.
He’s not a Gator alum. But I agree that he needs to go to a program that has never won anything of significance. That is, much lower expectations than UF.
OSU is built like SEC schools with the exception of the interior lines on both sides of the ball. UGA will shut them down just like they have everyone else.
Either of the 2 Mississippi schools. He had offers from them before going to Fla via junior college.
AU is now 2nd Chance U. First Bruce Pearl and now Freeze. Lets not kid ourselves - winning is all that matters. AU obviously feels this guy can win. All the noise to the contrary is just fake outrage.
This guy is a good coach. Glad to see that he got another opportunity.
He is playing selfishly. His lack of running looks like a player trying not to get hurt….
The recruiting hasn’t fallen off so it can only be coaching. Bama defense is just not the same since Kirby left. Saban will never be able to replace Kirby, but he must find the next great DC.
247 Sports just published an article stating that the dominoes wold start to fall for the top QB's in this class (Carr, Lagway, Puglisi) once Sayin commits. Let the fun begin!
I attended Med School at OSU, but retired in Florida a few years ago. So far removed from college that I don't have the same fervor I used to have, but we have all observed over the years that the Alumni and other Boosters at Auburn seem to meddle more than most - from Tuberville's time to now. A lot of big name coaches would eliminate that from consideration in their next prospective position.
None of these guys are going to the "Little Disaster on the Plains"....
