"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Are you all out of your minds? 

If Nick Marshall is at least a Brent Schaefer, then maybe seven wins are assured. 

But this team was bad last year.  Really fucking bad.  It's going to take a monumental coaching effort and complete revolution in our players to turn this around in one year. 

I think 6-6 at best.  No losses by 21 or more points.
If you have the players and yes we do, the next step is the weight room and conditioning.

What's probably the worst things a HC can do with a team full of studs? Lack of discipline, lack of proper strength training and lack of proper conditioning...that takes time to show itself, especially since most of the starters for the '09 & '10 were under a HC that wasn't lacking in any of that, so they still had that habit of busting their asses in everything they did...for the '10 season you combine that with the Silverback Gorilla style of play in a JUCO DT (Nick Fairley) and the Superman style of play in a QB (Cameron Newton).

So, after all of those players leave (nearly every starter and some 2nd string guys), you're left with a new group of starters that've come up with a HC that is lacking in those things that I stated earlier. We could see it all over the field slowly beginning to show itself starting with the '09 season and culminating with the '12 season.

Now, we have a new staff, including the strength staff, a new attitude, a new way of doing things, and a new determination (all of that starts from the HC on down)...Oh yeah and we have the Sand Pit.

So, going off of what the players have been saying, I'm gonna call that a Revolution in our players, both physically and mentally.

As for the coaches, replacing DL Coach Mike Pelton with Charlie Garner (Absolutely HUGE Upgrade). DC Ellis Johnson, CB Melvin Smith, S Charlie Harbison, WR Dameyune Craig, RB Tim Horton, QB Rhett Lashlee are all great coaches that've produced A LOT of talented players...and they've all coached or played with each other, so they have the familiarity connection.

I know this had been talked about adding nauseum, but I feel that this staff and team can accomplish something special.

God Damn I'm ready for some FUCKIN FOOTBALL!!!!

I think most of us fall between you and Jumbo, not so much for what we have or don't, but because the others were on the upswing with some veteran leadership while we were trending in reverse.
Not saying it can't be overcome just that we might be in a few scraps and could come up a wee bit short on the scoreboard.
State is the ideal test at game 3 and I like the way Tennessee falls on the schedule after they are softened up some.

Wish I shared half the optimism many of you do.  If this team wins all the NonConf. games, plus beats Ole Miss, MSU, Ark., and UT, doesn't get blown out by anybody, we can see some hope they found a QB that can play at this level, and some semblance of a defense, then it's been a wildly successful season IMHO.

Until I see some glimmer of hope at QB and on Def., then this team is lucky to go .500+.  It's going to take at least one player on each side of the ball emerging this season, like Nick Fairley did in 2010, as a complete big time surprise to get to any more than 8 wins.   And if you look at a potential 8 win season, and our schedule, there's 8 potential wins there without beating anybody worth a shit.

Bonerz. Realistic or not, that's absolutely the attitude I want our guys to have.

I'm with you. Have been all summer. A bowl game is a given, IMO. 7 total wins is my bar. Only six and I'm disappointed. 8 or more and I'm stoked. I tend to believe that I am not setting myself up for disappointment.

I'm with chad skins on this one.

I am looking for 9 wins. We'll know what were really looking at after the first game. We blow them out, we'll be ok. We kick a field goal to win in overtime  :facepalm:  we lose :suicide:

I said it and I am sticking to it. (hoping for better now)
