How you feel about the Heupel hire? 

Kind of disappointed, but I don't know how much better we could have realistically done. He's fine, I guess. I was hoping for Tony Elliott, but I think he was scared off by the impending NCAA investigation. 

Heupel definitely knows how to put up points, and we haven't had a good offense since Joshua Dobbs.

OU guy here. Went to Grad School out there. 

Heupel is iffy to me. He wasn't a good OC at OU, where putting up a point is the norm. Then goes to Utah State for a year, then Missouri, then takes over for Scott Frost. Which left that program with a ton of talent. The thing that worries me, two years after he gets hired his team goes a mediocre 6-4 in the shitty AAC. 

I think this isn't a good hire, and I think Tennessee should've hired someone with potential. I don't see Heupel having that potential. I hope I'm wrong, though.

I just don't see Elliot leaving until his kids graduate.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
