Smart went to GEORGIA where every other player he inherited is now in the NFL. Kirby would have no better record here.
C'mon y'all.....you have to know we've passed you on the gridiron.....Top ten D, top rushing offense in the country, 4 of the top 7 O'linemen coming back. One of the top D'lines in the country......what more proof do ya need? Five in a row would've been six if our offense wasn't injured and stagnant when we met last. I'm really just mashin' y'alls taters anyway.....I'm a SCAR resident and a Gamecock fan except one week outa the year.....And am fine with whoever wins the matchup.....But it just makes for fun and gets the blood pumpin' kinda like football!!!
This might happen. We have Chump as HC and he cannot fight himself out of a paper bag, let alone coach.
Yep, I can't wait till it's here and we can get into some real trash talk.. It's fun this early too but nothing like when it's game time..
Agreed!Yep, I can't wait till it's here and we can get into some real trash talk.. It's fun this early too but nothing like when it's game time..
I can't convince you, and nobody else can because there is no evidence to support such a claim. I had high hopes due to his pedigree, ties to the conference, success as a DC, etc. But the bottom line is....some guys are HC material, and some aren't.
aside from the obvious injuries that occur - the type injuries that some other
This is the cold hard truth. I hate it - but this is how I think our fans with clear eyes see it. UNC is admittedly uber simple on offense too...making that loss all the more maddening.

I am not in denial. I agree with most of this. I think UK will win...but not beat the brakes off of SC. But, he's done a masterful job there. You guys hired the right coach.
He's been there since 2015...safe to say any good or bad that happens is and has been under his watch. He also just completed maybe the biggest Coup since Auburn snagged Rodney Garner from Georgia in the SEC conference coaching world by getting Scott Cochran from Bama. That's what a GREAT leader does- hires a guy that will make his team better while making the best program in the country...which also happens to be in the same conference... weaker. We are getting prison raped in our sub conference and nobody seems to notice this reality. This hire will show big in the first half of the season.
And that's why I think maybe USC fans should hold their horses just a little longer. If you look back they were ready to run Stoops out of Lexington! I was one of'em screaming the loudest. But he made some coaching adjustments, and pulled in a few decent recruiting classes and went 7-5 in 16' & 17' then 10-3 and 8-5 with a crippled offense. I don't know if Muschamp's the man or not, but he's made adjustments and recruited well.....Took Stoops 7 years to get to 10 wins. Just shows what a little patience can do. And depth.
That's way too simple to be true. I wish it were true...and then maybe we would be hiring Jim Chaney, Scott Cochran, Matt Luke, Monken, etc.
I want a HC not afraid to surround himself with better coaches than himself. I feel like we have one elite coach (Wolford) and I hope Rocker is still passionate enough to be on that level and not looking to just draw a paycheck.
I do like a lot of these coaches and think 3-4 of them are dang good....but looking to see them have 2-3 consistent years of putting a 9 plus win team on the field for there to be real consideration that they're well above average.
Finally...I think we have had the worst run of OCs I've seen in D1 (Power 5) football in the last 20 years. I'm not being dramatic either. Roper, Mac and now Bobo? Man I hope Bobo proves me wrong.....but I'm pretty sure he won't. It just makes me think WM wants nothing to do with anything resembling a dynamic personality, offensive innovator or smartest guy in the room; basically, his actions suggest that he doesn't want someone on staff (esp. offense) who will upstage him as the HC.
We have a coach for the next 12 - 15 years...
Look no further to Muschamp... He's our new Mark Berson of football...
Word has it that Mark is passing along to Muschamp naked pictures of Trump and Tanner... That's how you stay around for 40 years
Not with Muschamp. He is not HC material. He needs to go. Keeping him longer will put us in a deeper hole. He tanked at UF, a school with better resources. Stoops did not tank before getting to UK.
"Never interfere with an enemy while he’s in the process of destroying himself."
Fans should remember this when opposing teams speak glowingly about their struggling coach.
Fail. Muschamp was 28-21 at UF with "better athletes".
You're comparing a guy who just went 4-8 & lost to App St. with a guy who went 12-2.
The old ACC basketball joke in preseason was....The good and bad news about the upcoming Clemson's basketball team is this: Bad news is that they have 5 returning starters, and 6 out of their top 7 players back. Good news is....they have those same 5 returning starters, and 6 out of their top 7 players back.
When you're as low as UK 2 & 10 and USC 3 & 9 in the SEC that's rock bottom. Spurrier and staff tanked in recruiting, that's why Spurrier got out! He wasn't going to take on the challenge of a rebuild! That being said, it's going to take 3 to 4 complete recruiting cycles and 5 to 7 years to bring a team that deficient in talent back to relevance in the SEC. IMO, it's ridiculous to call for a coaches head after 3 to 5 years. After 6 to 7, yes.....Absolute idiocy by Arkansas to fire Morris after 1 year! SCAR had a brutal schedule in 2019 with a Freshman QB. Give it this and next season....I think they're gonna turn it around! # 17 recruiting class in the country should add depth and key talent to contribute in 2020!
Oh Stop it. You want us to keep this loser so UK has a shot at beating us every year. Be off with your suck up to Muschamp.
Not true! Same stuff was being said about Stoops on Wildcat Lair Forum in years 3 and 4 of his tenure.....Glad as hell they were all wrong about him! Gotta give Champ a shot with the staff changes and recruiting progress he's made man, that's all.....If you don't see big progress in 2020, then yes, maybe it's time to move on from him! As much as USC fans want to believe the team had plenty of talent when Muschamp took over, it's just not true!! Will has had to rebuild Gamecock football and that takes time....To the tune of 4 to 7 years. That's just the way it is! Spurrier knew that his recruiters did a piss poor job and he bailed! I remember that year he was interviewed in spring practice and said Quote: " Ahhh Quarterbacks couldn't hit the broadside of a barn, receivers couldn't catch a cold etc. etc......They're rebuilding. Show a little patience!
Are you for real? Stoops will have good teams, but not great teams. We don’t want that. UK got lucky against us many times. We don’t want to be UK.
Also "Not True"! Stoops and UK will win an SEC Championship within the next 3 years! You heard it here first!
We got complacent. We were beating them on the field and getting out recruited. Spurrier says now he had some weak coaches as well.
Seriously though.....here's a few reasons why we win SEC in next 3 years.
Highest-graded returning O-linemen
Darian Kinnard, UK - 89.2
Jamaree Salyer, UGA - 81.3
Trey Smith, UT - 78.6
Landon Young, UK - 78.3
Drake Jackson, UK - 78.0
Ben Cleveland, UGA - 77.4
Luke Fortner, UK - 77.0
Carson Green, A&M - 76.3
Trey Hill, UGA - 73.6@PFF_College
And that's just O'line.....D is going to be top ten and plenty of offensive weapons at our disposal!

I admit that for a basketball school that is good. But it’s still a basketball school. SEC Chsmpionship my foot.

Their talent evals were surprisingly poor in Steve's last few seasons. We missed on a lot of guys.
Getting better and better players every year. And if there's one thing our coaches can do it's evaluate and develop talent. Take a look at our O'line haul this year and already 2 onboard for 2021.....Our trenches are as solid as they come. Throw in Terry Wilson and a crop of 1,000 yard backs and possibly Joey Gatewood (If not this year, next) and a top ten D.....I dunno, I think we may be onto something here.....Not trying to get under anyone's skin! I'm just saying you have to be patient and let Will get depth and push the right buttons. With the haul SCAR got this year I think they will be much improved!
When you guys do something significant in FB let me know. But for UK, traditionally being a football doormat, it is impressive.
We missed on a lot of defensive linemen and that's where the wheels fell off for us. Spurrier's best seasons, we had some dominant defensive lines but as those guys graduated or went pro, we didn't get the same type of quality to replace them.
