He must be the best bc we are going to move up to the next level.  We only had 2 levels left to climb.  Playoffs - National Championship win!

Awesome another title and moving on to the playoff! 2025 can't get here soon enough. 

Of course, looking at schedule and huff roster thought that possible regardless. But, hey I'll follow Gibby to 2025 playoffs!

Go Herd

It shouldn't be that hard to get a winning record next season. After Georgia, we have such notables as Missouri State (H), Eastern Kentucky (H) and MTSU (A).

Huff brought in 43 this year.  We will be fine.

Unless Gibson can bring back OC or find someone similar than it may be a tough ask to get back to SBC top.

JMU brought in 60 new players this year in coaches first year and they did ok.

Time will tell

Huff deserves a ton of credit for putting ego aside and going out and getting a great OC. None of our former coaches were willing/able to do that and that includes Pruett in his last 2-3 OC hires. Well Doc did get Cramsey but either handcuffed him or didn't bring in the right players for what Cramsey wanted to do.

Speaking of, Cramsey has done just fine at Memphis for a few years now.  Makes me think back to the expert commentary on him here.

Completely revamping your roster each year is the new norm in college football now.

No such thing anymore as the portal is full and there's no limit on how many we can take or replace.  We have 3000 players on our team at any given moment.  We just have to decide which ones we want to develop and play.  If our coach also sees it that way then we'll be fine.

Telly Lockette is the interim head coach.

Isn't Telly the guy who was Cato's HC in HS?

Have you ever heard a college say our new hire is a "bad" recruiter? lol
Time will tell. Not as bullish on this one as I was Charlie Huff
