....Dabo's recruiting methodology has resulted in what you are seeing on the field. This ain't the same Dabo with a fire in his belly that you saw years ago.

When you win a couple of natties and go to the playoffs as many times as we did it's easy to believe that you can do whatever you want without consequences. FAFO and now we are finding out.

Greatful that we had the years that we did. Many of us had said back then that "these are the good ol' days". Now some of you understand what we meant.

It’s not a hot take, you are an ostrich with your head in the f’n sand. We are a shell of what we used to be and you can’t see it

The silver lining here is that you and your kind are getting your comeuppance.

You know. At this point I’m just grateful I got to live through / attend our nattys. I genuinely don’t know if we’ll ever be back with the new landscape of college football
