People are tired of me talking about how bad Milroe is. That’s why I called it “piling on”.
Yep I quit mentioning it because of the same thing. I didn’t want to bring the overall mood of the board down. The ones that have implied we have been haters all year and wanted their victory parades after every win will be silent tho.

Milroe has to start next week or his draft stock will drop even more. Need him to play well one more time so he can move on. Then tell him that he will not be starting the bowl game and advise him to "sit out the game to prepare for the draft" so you can begin developing next year's starter.
We have to pray that's what happens. I'm not sure I'll watch next year if we have to suffer another year of JM and I watched everything through the dubose, Fran and shula years...

I think it's silly to be calling for CKD's resignation one season in. Anyone who thought we would see no downtick in performance was deluded and probably spoiled. There are definite problems, clearly, but. let's give the man some time. There's no excuse for the poor performance we've seen, but it's completely irrational to think there is anyone else that we would be able to plug in who would be able to immediately right the ship, even if their name rhymed with Tick Playpen. Remember that the specters of these same problems were going on last year too.
It hurts for me to say this, but for all the great things that Coach Nick Saban did for Alabama football, he did the program a dis-service by not dealing with the SANK cancer. But then again, he knew that Tide fans would be "livid" with .500 seasons because of portal transfers in 2023 and 2024. And while he gave us clues as to what was going on in the locker room ("the team chose the quarterback"), he kicked the SANK can down the street for the next coach to deal with. And here the program is. JMHO.

Couldn’t care less about his draft status. We need to be well rid of him.

While I also wanted to hope beyond all reason he would turn the corner, I wasnt convinced he would..........and I felt the same way. Dont care that people felt it was being a hater, it was calling it like you saw it and it has proven true...........and now look where we are

Remember earlier in the season when we were told that Deboer adapted his offense around Milroe’s skill set? Most of his offense was never installed because Milroe couldn’t run it, so they made the decision to sink or swim on the one thing Milroe can do: run the ball. That was completely shut down tonight, leaving no options but to keep doing it or try to pass to get back in it, which he can’t do. Even if they put in a better passer, he would have no experience running anything other than the limited offense they’ve been running all year.
When DeBoer is fired after next season we will look back at this as the first sign that the wrong guy was hired. He was brought in for that “innovative offense”. If the QB can’t run it, you don’t throw it out, you pick a different QB.
