Ari Wasserman brings up a good point on the coaching candidates 👀

I’ve always been of the belief that coaches focusing off the field on potential suitors end up suffering on the field during season. Think it’s pretty obvious

Too busy thinking about how much money they are about to make

Wow one loss!

A lot of those got beat in pretty dominant fashion too. Key, Lea, sumrall

Josh Heupel? Why is he on this list?

You know who didn’t lose yesterday? James Franklin 😤

Confused me too. I’m guessing he’s a name in the LSU search, maybe?

That’s because none of them are elite. It may happen down the road, but the hiring pool is pretty dry. Not to mention better jobs than AU are available and they’ve had a head start on vetting coaches and determining interest. HC searches are like musical chairs- someone is gonna get left out.

That’s because he’s already met his quota of losing for the year. Pre season 1 or 2 and shit his entire season away.

How many of those teams looked lost and hopelessly overmatched? Good teams can be well coached and still lose A game but our team looks bewildered and out of their depth week after week. Not the same.
