Well, here we are again. Another Sunday morning after a loss. Unfamiliar territory in recent years. I do think we all knew it was possible....a loss to someone other than Alabama....but it's hard to swallow from Ole Miss, for me anyways.
Something is just off. I can't put my finger on one thing, though. Biggest thing that stands out to me is just the energy/vibe of this group. I honestly can't point out one stand out leader on either side of the ball. There are some really good players but no obvious leadership. CKS seems to coach this group differently too. That's not a bad thing because I believe one sign of a good coach/teacher/mentor is first realizing that all players/students/young men can't be lead or taught the same way. There's been some hints at changes and I'm sure we'd all be okay with that in some areas but again, NIL and the TP have changed the game drastically. The days of college football domination are over with, without money, money, money. I saw someone comment last night that Ole Miss bought mercenaries on the OL this summer ...... it worked, this year. I look back on the 2 recent NC teams and the standouts are a walk-on, several 3 star guys, and a couple of transfers. Vocal, aggressive, smart, passionate, HUNTERS.... and they all had something to prove. Give me a team full of those guys, any day.
We've got one of the best head coaches in football and I wouldn't trade with anyone. Period. No one hates to lose more than CKS. We will get right.
I HATE Orange. This weeks game will be something. Hope the home field advantage and crowd make it a good one.
Happy Birthday to my favorite little man, today!
Praying for all those on LDGMDNOPL
and all the GMDN gang too!
Happy Birthday/Anniversary if you're celebrating today 🎉🎉
Love you guys and gals, MEAN IT.....
Go Dawgs ❤️
