Popular Post Didba 5,303 Posted November 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 28, 2021 MikeG from the WarRapport got a 1on1 off the record convo with Harsin last night and MikeG basically said he was very impressed with what Harsin said to him privately, shut down any talk of Harsin to Washington and just made MikeG feel like we have the right guy to build a program. Basically said in not so many words, there are gonna be bumps on the road to a building up a program. This season had its bumps but this Iron Bowl is the type of game you can build a program off of. Players buy in hard af after a loss like that. 6 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shabby 1,958 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 I'm settling into acceptance. But recruiting has to pick up and the offensive stats have got to improve. Im eager to see how offensive team stats rate us after the Bama game is factored in. Prior to the Bama game we ranked 64th in total offense By all metrics that's pretty terrible. 56th in total defense but I feel more hopeful there. There is no way to spin this and say it's been a good first year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harsin literally told MikeG 6-6 is not acceptable and this was not a good first year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUpreacherman22 3,908 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 There are a lot of things about Harsin I like!! He has several of the qualities you look for in a HC! There are a few little questions I still have, but one huge glaring red flag, and that is recruiting! If we don’t get exponentially better in recruiting, it will cancel out all of the good things. And we’ll be looking for a new coach again in 3-4 years. If we do start raking in top 10-15 classes (putting us probably 5th in the SEC), then watch out!!! This will be a team competing for championships year in and year out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDUBB4AU 5,138 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Harsin nailed it . Awful year . Absolutely terrible . Harsin is a football coach and knows what winning looks like 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just alot of 4 and 5 star guys we are competing with Bama with that witnessed Jordan-Hare in an Instant Classic. Seeing the stadium like that can have a huge impact on recruits not even beginning to look at the impact the actual game had on recruits in our favor. Is what I am guessing he is referring too.

Dan-0 479 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Unless you´re Vandy, 6-6 is not a good year. And it´s not just that we were 6-2 at one point until we lost four in a row. It´s the way we lost those four. An overall embarrassing performance at aTm followed by blowing leads in the next three games and snatching defeat from the jaw of victory. I still support Harsin. And yesterday, Mason proved to me he is capable of being a very good DC. But, on the other side, we had 159 yards of total offense-- who can you beat in this league with that? We might as well have run the Wildcat the whole game. Even if Bo comes back next year, which I think he will, we have some serious problems to address with our offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronMan70 3,282 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 (edited) Glad he said it. This team was an 8 or 9 win team, minimum. Coaches and returning players have to learn from it and get better. Everything it takes to do that has got to be the focus.

Likewise, add those three to last year's totals and the season indeed looks much more solid than this one. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely not. What competitor would? As someone looking from the outside, I think it was about what we should've expected. There have been real strides taken in player development, mindset, and culture shift. I don't like 6-6 but, I like the direction I see and am willing to let it play out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
