Terry is solid to us. I don't think you have to worry about him. If anything, I think Bama will move on from Roach and hire a DL... Cough I'm going to say this again... BO Davis.

I had heard he was solid previously but haven't heard anything since his UGA visit and him missing the Bama visit, you sure things haven't changed on that front? Anyways, if we could get Bo Davis back, that'd be a big move and worth it, IMO

He missed the game because he had a game that day. That's why it was rescheduled. I just threw in Bo Davis because I want him to come back.

I know he was in Georgia for the game. I don't think anything as changed just because of one game.

Well Damn:
He's talking about Oatis? or players in general?

More than Oatis, we'll see if Keeley finds the portal here also (Another big time bust)
Difference is Keeley has already used his RS so he may wait until December and see if he gets playing time.

I just think you'll see a different mindset this week after the shocking wet slap of reality we got last weekend.

How has he not gotten on the field? I thought he was running with the 2's and in line to play?

I think you're thinking of someone else, maybe Keanu Koht? (Hope I spelled that right) Keeley hasn't seen the field all year

Tonight? No.
Tomorrow?
You never know what personality is going to emerge on any given day.

There's a reason we hadn't seen anything Vandy showed us this last week, they had a whole extra week to install a new set of triple option plays. I harken this to a guy who circled the Bama week before the season and saw the opportunity with a bye week to try to catch us completely off-guard. It worked to perfection for Vandy and their QB had a phenomenal day on top of that.
On to South Carolina Week, let's hope the defense finds it's groove and can find the pieces it needs to succeed.

You know he’s correct ( I know one of the main guys he spoke about) there’s a big difference between reporting & shit stirring
This isn't an excuse for losing to Vandy by any stretch, but you're right on the extra time being a big help to them. I pointed out the bye week discrepancy about 3 weeks ago... it's ridiculous... Meanwhile, Bama is coming off a game vs. UGA where the defense was on the field for 48 2nd half plays. Then Vandy goes with a ball control, clock eating strategy? The defense looked like they had been hit with tranq darts about midway into the 4th. Not to mention, for 3/4 of the game, it was hot as hell. Not sure if it was seen on TV or not, but multiple Bama guys were throwing up on the field (most likely from too much water/gatorade on their stomach and then getting worn slap out, not necessarily from sickness).

On a different note: any word on Kobe Prentise?
Likely back this weekend barring setback.
If the team, coaches and even the fans do not turn the page to South Carolina we will have a repeat this weekend. After the UGA game during the Coach Deboer weekly show it was almost an hour in before Vandy was talked about. The players disrespected the Vandy team during the coin toss. All of these are pointing to players that need more accountability and some shall I say tough love. CKD does not need to be an enabler by making excuses for the way the team played. About time for him to call the baby ugly for how they have played especially on D.
I hear a lot of positive comments coming from CKD and that is fine but at some point time he needs to tell the players like it is. He may not be the coach that does it in front of the press but he better be doing it behind the scenes.
When you have one of your team captiains acting like Moore did it is hard for him to hold other players accountable when it is needed the most.
Ok now who knows anything about South Carolina? What players are a threat and what are their strengths?

Right, I was speaking more to Spring and Fall Camp, sorry. Hard to believe we are almost halfway through the season.
That Vandy style of option is very difficult to prep for. All of the scout team guys are recruited to fit your system, not the system of each week’s opponent. In the end, it falls on the coaches to just get the guys ready. As an old scout teamer, we would bust our ass trying to help.

Agree, tough task. At the same time, Mizzou held them to 20 points in regulation. Only Alcorn State let the score as many points as we did. I believe we helped make their offense look good.
