Football season is the only time of year I grow a mustache. So on game day every week I shave off everything except the mustache and for the bowl game I shave the mustache off as a sacrifice to the football gods.

I’m not so convinced Rising is the defacto starter. Whit has a tendency to stick with the guy he’s picked until it’s painful. Think about how it took Jordan Wynn literally retiring from football for Travis to take over.

At the end of the day, the coaches see this team everyday and they wouldn’t be playing guys if they didn’t think it was the best decision for the team. They get paid to field the best team possible. So in my opinion, the starters yesterday are probably going to be the starters for the rest of the year, barring injuries.

We’re in for a rough few years, unless the coaching makes massive strides with the talent we have on hand.

All fair points above, and I couldn’t agree more that there is no one simple solution. It takes competency at all positions, on and off the field, to win football games. The one part I’d disagree with is I don’t think our recruting has been improving. Sure, we’re getting a bunch of transfers from other schools; but a lot of them just aren’t working out. This is the second year that our QB from the transfer portal has turned out to be a bust. (Maybe calling Brewer a “bust” is a bit harsh, but at this point I don’t see how we start him over Rising.) Curry at RB has barely seen field time.

But speaking of transfers, I’m missing Ty so much at this point. With the South in shambles this year, he could have been a star.
