Title: My "issue" with Tuberville
Post by: Dr. Beeper on October 03, 2007, 01:41:45 PM
I have many thoughts.  The program's stability is as high as it has ever been (Coach T.T. has been there 9 years, if we are forced to play younger players-they have the talent to step up, no NCAA bullshit, a top 10 program without doubt).  I like his approach to discipline (see Rowell, Sears, Blackmon, etc).  We play extremely well in MOST big games (9-1 against last top 10 opponents).  He beats his rivals (great record against LSU, UGA, UAT and even UF and UT).  My only issue with Tuberville is the annual "laying of the egg" and I think this most sticks out because I have been there at a few (Arky in 2002-Fred Talley for Heisman, UAT in 2001-Andrew Zow is a superstar, UGA in 2006-Bulldogs with best defense EVER, LSU 2003-Why not cover Devery Henderson?, GT in 2005-Calvin Johnson anyone?).  It's the fact that in these games, we do not look prepared AT ALL.  Most of these games, we were favored.  We play great as an underdog, but we certainly need to learn how to play as a favorite.  T.T. has done a great job and has my full support, however we have to improve on this.

I agree 100% every year Tubbs loses a game he should win and wins a game he should lose. The team comes out flat see the second half of the Florida game. In the next few years if he could get the team to play lights out every game....MNC?

I'm sure all the other SEC coaches would kick in to pay his salary.
