Like they say, “Winning is hard” especially in the SEC. I have full confidence in Steve Sarkisian and his ability to get over the hump. He’s been mentored by great coaches, builds a great culture, and has a clear vision for his team. Building a Championship Team takes time and he has the ability, skills, knowledge, work ethic and most of all the talent needed to do it. Keep grinding, keep the faith, and good things will come.

Thanks! I could have added more like Steve Spurrier (0-3) and Urban Meyer (1-2). I know there are more great coaches from the past and present but just want to give people some perspective on things.
