    I would take you right now, and that says something.

    Only person I would not take is the Maryville High's DB coach, and that's it.

    Will take your word on that. I don't follow that stuff closely.

    As previously stated, not a big fan of Willie or Banks. I will lose no sleep if either one leaves (or stays for that matter). Hopefully, it is on Heuple to decide.

    If they do stay, I reserve the right to [itch bay] about it if we continue to look incompetent on D.

    He doesn't have a defense. He starts with a blank slate each week and when whatever he's drawn up doesn't work he immediately goes back to his nonsensical networks of coverage.

    I am not a Willie defender at all. I laffed when he showed up at uga.

    Just curious why this is the pov. For 2024, wasn't he the recruiter for Boo Carter and Beasley?

    I find myself wondering if it is the Banks' scheme (or lack thereof) that is the issue.

    I will freely admit, I don't know, other than shit needs to get fixed. If the DL doesn't make/pressure every play, then there has been a high probability that we break down in the secondary.

    Boo is a headcase that a lot of schools backed off of

    Ok. As long as he meets a mf'er over the middle with reckless abandon and Gives His All.

    But I thought he was a 4*? Not a 3*? My curiosity was relative to the 3* comment more than a recruits head space.

    In my heyday, Hacksaw Reynolds was considered somewhat of a "head case".

    Basically every recruit he is on by himself is a 3 star kid. Hell he pulled 3 from the same school. He's gotten lazy.

    He's more of a Deon Grant than an Eric Beery

    I think it's time we look outside for a hire.

    Doesn’t really matter too much if Banks has safeties drop 25 yards deep on 3rd and 3-7, like he did against UF on 6 of their 9/11 3rd downs in first half

    According to John Brice, Martinez is retiring. Best possible scenario.

    Retiring means aka he hasn't seen a new deal yet.

    If true, start looking for his replacement and offer him a nice retirement bonus to leave as soon as the other guy can start
