He somehow pulls seasons back from the brink of disaster every year. It's ridiculous.I think it's safe to say Sumlin is safe for this year.

FIFYHe somehow pulls seasons back from the brink of disaster every year. It's awesome.
I swear those unis look completely gray on my monitor. I was surprised when I watched on TV that they were green. I really like 'em. They're really sharp.
Sorry, Bazza, that your team lost. I was rooting for you.
Kevin Sumlin is a good coach. Is he 5.5M/yr good? Absolutely not!!! But...comma...however what does aTm want?..They are still aTm. 8-10 wins and go bowling every year w/CNS in your division? What more can you really expect? Schools are paying more for just as much (looking at you Harbaugh).I think it's safe to say Sumlin is safe for this year.
I agree. If Nuss isn't fired during the off week then Mac is officially on the hot seat. I just don't understand why anyone would hire Nuss and be so loyal to him when he is constantly the problem. This is worse than the Miles-Cameron relationship. Atleast Miles could say "I won a NC as a head coach so I think I know what I'm doing". Noone cares who the coordinator was. Come on Kiffin could say twice, Pelini could say 1 and a SB, and Charlie Weiss could say 3 SBs as coordinators and position coaches. CJM doesn't have any more room to argue why Nuss should be employed anymore if he doesn't want to go down with him.Sorry Bazza - I really thought CJM was the answer, but despite the injuries and such I have my doubts at this point.
Maybe with Mac, but definitely not with Nuss. We know both very well.With all due respect....I think some of the comments about Mac and/or Nuss getting the boot are very premature.
The problem with this is eventually you are going to have to say " where do I see this going?". Shula lost Brodie in 2004, Prothro in 2005, and was under sanctions. Aside from the 2003 LSU and UGA games he didn't really get blown out. Do you think he deserved the criticism that Bama fans gave him with those factors?We lost both our last two games by only 1 point each, so we were competitive, despite fielding a very depleted squad.
Yeah you can find that Nuss had the best ppg in the CNS run, but he had the one of the best qb and wr the SEC ever saw. Everyone loves jumping on Kiffin about losing close games, but usually ignores Nuss. Mainly because Kiffin's losses were to Hugh Freeze and Urban Meyer, and Nuss's were to Sumlin and Gus. Yeah Gus should swing the argument, but Foster's missed field goals usually take focus away from the stuffed runs and AJ's passing day.I've said this before and it bears repeating. I would like to see how Mac and Nuss do with the same starting QB for the entire year. No injuries. I don't think that's too much to ask for.
Frustrating but let's see what happens in Jacksonville.....you never know.....:rolleye2:
When I was looking at the uniforms on here they appeared to be more gray than on TV. They were definitely gator green on TV though and they looked really bad. The color on my computer really misled me on those.@Bazza - I am glad that you haven't given up on your team or head coach. I am just hopeful that you saw how ugly those uniforms were under the cameras. FL looked sloppy in those uniforms because the cut was terrible.
The regular FL uniforms are cool, and the history of FL's play in those uniforms makes the team more intimidating when they take the field. When FL took the field in the swamp lizard uniforms, they just looked like a mess - and that was before the ball was even put into play.
As for Nuss - his play calling is just too conservative and predictable. That doesn't change with better personnel, it is just more effective. He is calling games as if he had Alabama's backfield, and he does not.
It was a one time deal, Moro. Thanks for your observations. Regarding Nuss....I hear what you're saying but I'm still waiting for us to have one full season with the same starting QB.....AND all of our play makers playing. IMHO, our coaching staff is working miracles right now with what we are working with.....regardless of how some see it.One other thing Bazza, when you are in the stadium, you can't read the numbers or names on those new uni's. I hope they never wear them again.
