If only Treon was a bit taller... But he's done well enough in the past that hopefully he can help the offense the rest of this season. Hopefully the whole team will rally and come closer together in this difficult situation. Also I hope Treon develops a connection with McGee like Grier had. McGee can be a good pressure value since he's a nice big target with reliable hands and is good about heading up field after the catch. DRob is going to have to step it up even more so as will Powell, Goolsby and the rest of the receivers. Also O-line needs to keep improving and giving KT good holes to run through, since an effective run game can take a lot of pressure of Treon or any QB for that matter.

I don't think it's his height, really. And the shaky passing may just have been the result of Muschamping.
I feel the same way. I also knew that our season was over as soon as that happened. He was the only reliable thing on our team. Michel is a great back, but he's not a between the tackles back.
Go Treon! And more importantly "Go Gators"!I could see Harris coming in and handling the offense. Grier did nothing after the first quarter against Mizzou and has been inconsistent all year. Not sure Harris makes all those plays against Tennessee but I remember him having a better deep ball than Grier last year and in the Spring.
This is my biggest worry honestly.
I just wonder how long it really takes for it to leave his system.
He was really shaping up to be something special after the first half of Tennessee to be honest.

Nah man Harris is secretly super talented and we've been hiding him until this part of our schedule.
Tons of stuff. There are cough syrups out there that will fail an NCAA drug test.
It was the same with Prothro back in 2005. Shell of a season, even with only 2 losses. Of course, I kind of think all of those wins ended up Vacated. It's like combining Georgia and Florida together!

Lol have you seen the teams play?
Michigan's odds to win the national title have moved from 250-1 to 10-1. Vegas thinks UM is the #4 team in the county right now.
I don't feel weird about Harris. Grier looked better than Harris in a few key points, but not my much. The biggest miracle has been that our O-Line has done marginally better than we expected it to do.
I mean, the weirdest thing to me is that McElwain kept leaving Harris out of games, even when we were up by a lot of points and he needed to rest Grier.

I think FSU is the #1 team in the county. Take that!
Pot is a banned substance. When is the last time Treon was tested?
You're right. A friend of mine on my college baseball team was suspended because he took cough syrup. It's ridiculous.

Cable and internet are finally back up. What time do the games start?
He took it a few weeks ago , tested positive and was only banned for a game.
Well, we're halfway through the season right now and Tech has already matched their win total from last season with the toughest part of the schedule already behind us.
This week we play Kansas, which is as much of a gimme as there exists in college football, so to get bowl eligible we essentially just need one more win out of @Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, @West Virginia, Kansas State, and @Texas. I could see us winning any of those games and I could see us losing any of those games but overall I like how things have set up for us. 8 or 9 wins is by no means a gimme but it's now a very realistic possibility.

Welp. Hope Sark takes this as an opportunity to get his shit together. He can still make a fine OC, or head coach at a smaller school.
Also going to be nice not having to worry about USC poaching my head coach this time.

Did he show up drunk again today or something? How did it change from LoA to termination in one day?

Go Blue.
gl, Michigan State. Looks like you'll need it this time around.

I feel like Sumlin is off limits for a bit. He's got a bunch of years and money left on his contact, and I could see other schools wanting to wait one or two more years to see if it was all Johnny.

I'd settle for a handful of healthy starters returning to the lineup.

Wonder how long USC has known Sark has a drinking problem.
All kinds of anecdotes already out there about him allegedly smelling like booze here or being drunk during this game or whatever.
It's impossible for them not to have known or at least investigated. You are giving millions of dollars to someone and putting the prestige of your belovedNFL franchise college football program on the line
It feels like they enabled him as long as they thought he could deliver them wins and going back to the big time and then when he really couldn't keep it together and everyone caught wind of how bad he was they cut him loose.

Are that many out? I don't keep up because you know...why would I keep up with MSU. Is that why you guys have been struggling to beat trashcan teams?
That's what I'm hoping for because lord knows we need a healthy, prepared line up. I'm thinking that Coach D has been holding LJ Scott back the past few games to make sure he's ready to go - all according to plan...?
Yes, and it's kind of weird because injuries like this haven't been an issue in the past...

I was looking at West Coast mid majors but the only one having a good season is Boise State and I don't think their guy would want to coach USC.
I mean the smart choice is a guy who has done well consistently at a second tier Power 5 school or a mid major. I'm not sure who fits that bill right now.

I don't have inside info on this, but I would imagine that they took the 24 hours to hammer out the separation agreement.
As for the coaching search, we need to keep this train going and lock in Norm Chow. $10 million per year should do it.
I think this could work.

Did wonders for my team, highly recommended. People can do his clap thing and sing the only song they know.

I guess when Chip is fired at the end of the season he'll take the Saban approach and go to a rival school in the same conference as the school he left.
