Elko, you could start to earn your paycheck by firing Klein. Otherwise give the money back and move on.

Did he mention firing the OC?

I'm not watching to find out.

He said it's "not a personnel problem". To my mind if it's not personnel, then it's the coaches.

Do the stupid ****ing medallions come from our NIL program? Do they get one per embarrassing loss or is it more of a season commemorative?

Your 4th and 1 play has not worked all year. Time to get a new OC, because the one we have is not getting it done.

O line was horrible, and why can't the defense wrap runners up to tackle them ? Arm tackling is not how you tackle !!!

Can we stop parading Taurean York around like some kind of leader? He's beyond atrocious. Tackling air all season long. He's one of the gigantic problems on this defense.

Elko is a class act who owned up to what happened last night. He is going to be a great coach at Texas A&M.

This game was lost on the line of scrimmage. We were dominated the entire game, offensively and defensively. Outclassed,outcoached, and outplayed. Should be interviewing our lineman, not the poor souls who have to play behind them. Total waste of good food,money, and space.

Probably from the same place that the cartoon sweatshirt that the coach is wearing!

I'm pretty sure Elko and Klein will be having some discussions the next couple of days. Klein will either show him he can make changes or Klein and Elko both might decide his offense is not cut out for the SEC.

Elko isn't a big time coach

I still have faith in this man to be a great leader and skipper, but he needs to clean house. If Klein remains the OC for next, they've lost me for the 25-26 season. I can't take another year of watching, Jimbo was LESS predictable than that..

Do coordinators usually not do press conferences after games? Is the common at other schools also? Kind of crappy that Marcel Reed is left trying to explain that **** show

We ran up the middle 4 times. Twice on 3 and short and twice on 4 and short. Got stuff all 4 times. Then you add on the fact that we got stonewalled in the same situations multiple times against SC, it just makes it a BRAIN DEAD play call. We pay these morons millions and that is the best they can come up with on 4 and 1????

Add on the fact that we decided twice to not take the points and kick field goals in scoring position, just baffles me. Especially the last attempt where we needed 10 points anyway.

These things have really made me lose faith in Elko, you can't be a good coach and just make that many stupid decisions.

I thought so too but just too many stupid game management decisions against both SC and tu. Maybe he will be our Sherman and get the program physically right but yet we still lose games dues to brain dead play calling and game management

Lets not forget about Bateman because sip could only score 17. They both need to go.

But he is a big coach.

So we're halfway there!

"Yeah," outcoached/outplayed three games in a row.

The definition of stupidity is doing the same wrong things over and over and over and NOT correcting them. OC has no creativity, no imagination and no balls. If he runs a play action on 3rd down on either one of those ultimate failed 4th down plays we are up 21-17 and maybe win the game. Teasips had 9 guys stacked on the line in both instances and OC just played right to their defense stack. Hell if he RPO's on 3rd and goal he walks into the end zone on the left side. Same thing on the 10 yard line. If all they could come up with after a F'ing TO was a run off guard and Elko agreed to that call then fire all their asses. That is just straight up bad coaching. OC needs to be fired. Bland offense all season with no creativity or imagination. If that is what we wanted we should have just kept Jimbo. Looked just like his dumb ass plain offensive scheme. We did the same sh*# against SC and Auburn with the same results and the same losses that could have been avoided. How many times did we run on first down and for short or no gain and get behind the sticks. We were so predictable a HS DC could scheme against us. Lost 3/4 down the stretch because of the OC and a defensive line (supposed to be one of the best) letting people run over us!!! Same old crap. We have all the talent you can buy and no coaching.

Maybe Elko should call the Eagles coach and figure out how to run that highly complicated "kush push" play!! With 2 DOWNS to make less than a yard just QB sneak TWICE!

Or maybe get your mobile qb rolled out on a rpo. Stress the defense just a tad. Or put Bussey in direct snap and let him try to create with space instead of diving head first into the belly of the defense.
