Why would they leave if milroe is going to be gone next year. That doesn’t make any sense.
DeBoer said he will fully install his offense next season, which probably means passing a lot and thus less emphasis on running the ball. Of course if our OL can't learn to pass block better maybe he'll have to modify it.

For some reason some fans engage in toxic positivity.

Just excessive positivity that basically amounts to ‘guys there is nothing to be upset about we are 5-1 and ranked #7 please stop complaining’

It’s gas lighting.

We have legitimate issues right now that are valid to discuss wrt to coaching and schemes and player fundamentals….and at least for the next 24 hours we should be allowed to discuss those things.

I’m not sure how it helps to be told to just bury our heads in the sand like nothing is wrong.

Context matters.
Toxic positivity is exactly right. And yes, this team is being gaslit in a major way. All last year, all I heard was "put Georgia and Bama on the field right now and Bama runs them out of the stadium after 1 quarter". I heard that mess even after the loss to Texas and the ugly wins against South Florida and Arkansas. Even when we finally played Georgia, we didn't run them out of the stadium by any means. I remember Tennessee needing overtime to beat Troy in 2012 and Dooley was absolutely giddy. I saw that same giddiness in Deboer today after surviving against a very SUBPAR South Carolina

Our current issue isn't the offense. I'm still baffled at why the defense is getting worse.

Who's not letting you discuss anything?
It’s not a censorship thing by staff or anything

I just mean some people try to actively squash legitimate concerns posters are trying to discuss.

They use hyperbole to the point of absurdity in trying shame people into not discussing things that may be seen in a negative way.

Some posters are overly negative and take things too far.

But a lot of the negativity is based on valid concerns and imo is not people just being eeyores.

I enjoy reading people’s views both positive and negative and get frustrated with ‘Sunshine pumpers’ trying to silence ‘eeyores’ with sarcastic mocking.

It’s like a peer pressure type of thing trying to force others to fall in line.

Exactly what an eeyore would say 😉

The staff is clearly going to have to get better at game prep. I saw too many things USCe copied from Vandy that still worked a week later. Milroe and the offense got punched in the mouth, rocked a bit, but ultimately settled in and made the necessary plays.

#5 should have taken a knee on the TD pass and we run the clock out. 20-19 is still a W.

They were showing highlights of our game against USCe at halftime of a game on another network. I think it was Fox. And they showed us picking off the last pass and they commented about how Bama "kept their playoff hopes alive". If that's not gaslighting, I don't know what is
