Fire Kendal Briles

Throwing out the "white women" bit for part of his "sales pitch" is lower than used car salesman Wolf of Wall Street slime.
Yeah, he should’ve left off the white girls part and just said pretty girls, agreed, but that’s a bit different than saying he was offering them up as collateral. Whatever the hell that even means.

Slightly un-PC isn’t ideal, but it’s hardly a hangable offense.

A. Kendall hasn’t been here for three years. Garrett Riley was OC in 2022.

B. Gary’s staff left the OL room complete bare once the 2022 seniors graduated. Sonny and staff tried to patch together a recruiting class in the couple weeks they had between being hired and signing day, and did a pretty solid job considering the situation they were in. The 2 recruiting classes since then, OL (and DL) has been a huge priority and we’ve landed lots of dudes. Those guys are nowhere near ready to contribute due to the nature of the position.

C. NIL has changed everything. There aren’t many sure thing plug & play OL in the portal, and those that are get offered tons of money by the big boys.
All valid points, but doesn't the HC have some accountability over not having players for his OC? We may well have guys that will step in next year, but who is accountable for this year? Riley? Briles? Sonny?

Yeah of course

Probably a combination of Gary, Sonny, all the recruiters, and all donors who do or don’t contribute to NIL.

If we aren't going to pay the big bucks to get the really good OL and DL, then I hope like hell every coach on that campus is selling exactly what we do have.... Amazing looking women!

OUCH!!!


All I know is that KB is going to have to game plan his ass off because we're going to have a replay of the baylor game defensively. Gordon is going to run for 200 on us.
 
While I enjoyed Henji, um 20 points against a [ Finebaum ]e team like Nati is absurd. Fire Briles for a thousand reasons plus he sux.
The weather wasn’t ideal, especially in the second half. Both teams combined only scored 7 in the second half. I think you need to just get over the fact that KB is our OC. He’s done a good job considering what we had on the o-line this year.

Proud of our guys for getting it done on the cold. Good work by staff.

Wondering how many of the first round playoff games will be up north? That could affect how a Texas or UGA plays.

If either receiver catches the ball that hits them in the hands down near the EZ, that’s 7 more points, plus the missed chipshot FG is three more. You can’t blame that on Briles, he schemed playmakers open and they just didn’t catch the ball.

That’s 30 points we should’ve had in a snow game, with our two best playmakers either out (Bech) or battling some kind of injury (Savion) with an OL that can’t run block to save their lives.

Not to mention, Hoover clearly was struggling with his accuracy in the cold & snow.

Definitely not the best game from our offense, but the weather was clearly affecting both teams in that regard, and our offense’s style is way more affected by the cold and snow than Cincy’s.

If you want to say we should fire Briles because you don’t like him as a person, that’s totally fine, you do you, but he’s clearly performed above and beyond as an OC this season, and your consistent criticism of him as an OC makes us know you’re not to be taken seriously.

Briles is not getting fired. The game plan and play calling last night was excellent. Hoover was erratic.at the start of the game but he found a rythmn and he was threading the needle and receivers were open. 3 dropped passes in a row and plenty more. The offense should have had 3 more scores. That’s not Briles fault.
