Dan Lanning seems to have learned a lot from Saban and Kirby, whew. It’s no wonder his teams are intense.

That’s nothing like Muschamp, absolutely nothing. Muschamp is a Saban clone and would’ve been F bombs galore and have you ready to run through a wall.

One game into his second season is barely a sample size, especially at a program with the expectations DeBoer inherited. Knee-jerk reactions like that are wild when you think about it. If this were any other coach at a program not named Alabama, people would laugh at the idea of firing them after a 9-4 year one and 0-1 start into their tenure.

Deboer went 9-3 in year one with a loss in the bowl game. 9-3. He’s 0-1 in year two, give the man some time. Sark went 5-7 and then 7-5 for comparisons. Accountability is important, but patience is too. Deboer deserves a little breathing room to see how the season unfolds. Odd how some are held to unrealistic and unreasonable standards but others aren’t.

It’s honestly impressive how much energy you pour into tracking tweets from the shadows, acting like you know whose they are when you actually have no idea. You get worked up over factual stats from some random person on Twitter, someone you don’t even know, yet you never engage there to dispute them…that’s odd behavior. That’s not passion, that’s obsession. Meanwhile, you’re never around for good news, only showing up to latch onto negativity and pretend you’re the moral compass of the internet. There’s a pattern: stalking disguised as criticism, sensitivity disguised as outrage, and insecurity disguised as authority. At this point, your obsession is more entertaining than the tweets themselves.

Having their season ended by that team last year just wasn't enough.

No, you can only work with the talent you have. On the flip side he’s responsible for getting said talent.

Turns out missing on Dakorian Moore matters, oofff

Yikes

Both statements can be true at the same time—they aren’t mutually exclusive. It’s not about pushing a negative take, it’s about looking at the facts. Sark didn’t have Manning prepared yesterday speaks to coaching, game planning, and execution. Even a good quarterback can struggle if the game plan is poor or the team isn’t ready. Manning being better than a 7th round pick Quinn Ewers is about the players’ talent levels or career ceiling. Manning being a more talented or capable quarterback doesn’t automatically mean he would succeed if the preparation or system was flawed but he’d have given them the best chance had he played all of last season.

If Arch Manning had thrived in his debut, Sarkisian would’ve been praised as the QB whisperer who polished another five-star into a star. Instead, Manning looked unprepared after three offseasons in Sark’s system, and the blame is being pushed entirely on the player. That doesn’t square. Sarkisian sold himself as a quarterback developer — if his crown-jewel recruit isn’t ready, that’s on him.

Can’t provide that info, figures.

Figured you could give a breakdown on pressures, you said he wasn’t MIA. Share it with the class…

Simmons had two total tackles, one solo, no tackles for loss and no sacks. For the best edge in the country “according to Rod”, you expect him to have a bigger impact than that. That stat line in a top 5 matchup is MIA. That said, he’s still a great player and only going to get better.
