I feel like we've upgraded our coaching across the board, and I believe they can get the most out of many of these portal players who may not be that highly rated. For example, the style of offense Gundy ran the past few years (no motion, no misdirection, no innovation) only magnified our...

Just doing the math based on those transferring out, it would seem we need another 8-10 OL, 8-10 DL, 5 or 6 LB's, a couple of RB's, 6-8 WR's, 6-8 DB's, etc.

So, Mestemaker hasn't even taken his visit to Stillwater, but he's already signed a $7M contract (per RA)? We sure about that?

That IS a lot of money, but that is the pay scale for top-tier QB's in the portal. There was an article linked on PFB showing that the scale was basically from $3M-$5M for highly coveted QB's, so this falls in line with what we're paying him. Sure, the level of competition was not great, but...

IMO, he was made out to be this S&C guru, but I was never impressed with our physicality along the lines, and we've suffered an inordinate amount of injuries along all position groups over the years. I think any good up and coming S&C coach could achieve the same or better results for half the...

I think he’s organizing a sleepover🤠

It'll be refreshing having an HC who actually talks to his players and coaches on the sidelines and shows excitement during a game. Gundy is a weird dude, but the fact that he never showed any emotion towards his players and never talked to them was really strange.

I guess that's why they were paying him $900,000/year.:ROFLMAO:

Morris and his staff are gonna be hungry to prove themselves at this level. Can't wait.

Morris was my top choice--really pumped about him taking over. When it comes to QB's and offense, he's the anti-Gundy. Amazing to me that a guy with Gundy's experience could be that bad at recruiting and evaluating QB's.

Um, no.

They're probably looking for analysts.

I’m not sure they’re quite at our level of bad, but that’s a good comparison.

No decent P4 programs are coming for Gundy. He's shown himself to be a lazy, complacent doofus who completely burned his own program down. The SEC would chew him up and spit him out. No one outside of a G5 program would hire him.

I haven't seen any other programs in the new NIL era totally fall apart. Florida State has not been good the last couple of years, but they're not yet the disaster that we are. They're two years removed from going 13-0.
