The crowd that thinks he’s going to be able to recruit at an elite level even if he continues to suck every year live in fantasy land. No coach has ever done that.At some point, if losing or otherwise meh seasons pile up, any HCs recruiting "draw" is gonna suffer. My guess is he's got maybe two more seasons to turn this around as far as his reputation and future recruiting capability goes. If that hasn't happened by the end of 2024, no recruit is gonna recall or care what he once did at Oregon.
As far as job security, that's a whole different story. Don't care how many planes with banners might fly, he's here for the rest of the decade (unless he would be the one to call it a day).
I doubt Mario really changes his ways
He is what he is
Just have to hope he can out recruit all his deficiencies
Media is rightNah, Saban lost to Louisiana Monroe and went 6-6. Mario lost to MTSU and went 5-7, so using the CIS model, Mario actually had a BETTER year 1 than Nick Saban/Alabama. The media just hates us.
AMIRITE?
I'd feel better if Gattis was gone and losing McClain to primo after sending everyone to an empty Lakeland is rather lame. Big time coach embarrassed by a kid is disturbing. Hard to think 2023 will be much better, especially after all the preseason hype last year. I know, if only Chaney or Nelson had been healthy 2022 would've been different, sigh! We are down to 3 QB's now, what if TVD isn't 100 percent? Help me out here with some reason to be optimistic???? Or is it wait another year or two? Elko at Duke gets an A, Kelly and A+, Freeman at ND a B, Maybe we should've promoted Lashlee as he is a B, Dykes A+, Riley A+, and the lowest and only D is Mario.

Is that about me?Before the beginning of great brilliance, there must be chaos. Before a brilliant person begins something great, they must look foolish in the crowd.

Do you want it to be?Is that about me?
He did say, “So using the CIS model.”How is 5-7 better than 6-6
