He waited until December to let Reeder go. We all knew like week 4 that it wasn’t getting any better. And Reeder was the better of the two coordinators. Reffett needed to go after SMU and Houston obliterated us. 

You are outside your mind if you think Reeder did a better job than Ref. The defense got worse in 2019 because the offense got much, much, worse. It is the same phenomenon that struck our defense in 2014 after being lights out in 2013. You may try to claim it is because we lost Orr and Trice but the fact of the matter is, we scored a defense touchdown against Texas and put the clamps on June Jones to the point that he took his ball and went home. It wasn’t until the offense showed they were incapable of sustaining a drive that the defense began to falter. The fall from Harrell to Reeder was tremendously worse than anything Ref did.

Did Reeder even do anything?? He basically coached QBs after UH, and that was a failure because nobody seemed developed behind Mason.

I stand behind that 100%. Mason Fine still put up 3000+ yards and 29 TDs. The offense was putting up 30 points per game. Yes it was down, but the offense wasnt coached by Graham Harrell any longer. The defense under Reffett had 1 good season where they didnt allow 30+ points per game. And in that regard, I will say it was because the 2018 offense was so killer and kept them off the field.

So your argument to say Reeder was better is to say that our production went down but he isn’t Graham Harrell? And to say Ref is worse you admit he had a good season?

      A few HSO's

      1: One big problem with the NIL (aka pay for play) is that the universities are what draw the fans, not the players. People argue that "they deserve a piece of the pie", etc., but the big money comes from rabid fans and alumni of the schools, not from fans wanting to watch certain players. I wish they would form a minor league football and see how much interest there is...wait, we already have that. It's called the XFL, USFL, UFL and the players don't make much money ($5,500/wk) and there aren't many fans at the games. Put the Rengades in Alabama uniforms and the Stallions in Auburn uniforms and you'd sell out AT&T stadium. Why, because the players don't matter, the universities are what matter (as it pertains to attendance). Another example is the NBA D-League. What kind of money are those guys making? (I'll save you the Google search, they make $25K/yr). I have to assume that's peanuts compared to many of the NIL deals players are getting. If you want to get paid, go pro. Nobody is making you go to college to get a free education that will benefit you for the rest of your life. 2: I hate the argument that "coaches make big money and can leave for another job whenever they want to." See the last two sentences of the previous point. If you want to be able to do that, go pro. Make it your career just like the coaches have done. There are a very limited number of head coaching jobs at the college level and these coaches have put in LONG hours and worked their way up to the positions that they are in. Nobody was giving them millions of dollars when they were a GA busting their tail for nothing.

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      Those schools you mentioned have already reached out to The Big 12. Also Louisville and Pitt have 100+ year historic rivalries with Cincy and WVU respectively. Keg of Nails and Backyard Brawl will both be owned by the Big 12 soon enough.

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      If they wanted to join the ACC, they would have joined with Cal and Stanford. We already tore the Pac 12 apart, the ACC is next.

      Softball Schedule Update--Weekend Games With Wichita State

      Well that eliminates one game I can go to. Senior ceremony is also going to be after the second game tomorrow. Hate that weather is getting in the way of this most accomplished senior class in our softball program's history.
