Maybe in your mind he is. Harbaugh could have 2-3 more 8 win seasons in a row before that would be true.

I agree, 2-3 wins seasons and the Bears probably will fire him.

If that's true, your program is in far worse shape than anyone could've guessed.

Yep, Michigan is supposed to be a blue blood, but going 8-5 3-4 years in a row is what it takes to get their coach on the hot seat.

Georgia fired Mark Richt following back to back 10 win seasons.

Yup, and Richt had actually won the conference a couple times. If Harbaugh is still stuck going 9-4 or 10-3 and finishing 3rd in the B1G East by 2020, I can't imagine how he's still their coach.

Washington finally got rid of this worthless motherfvkr at the end of the regular season when he took the HC job at Oregon St.

Nebraska will have it's 3rd defensive coordinator in 3 years.
New offensive coordinator.
New head corch.

I’m going to go out on a limb and say it will be less damaging than last off-season.

Yall have some catching to do then.

We already have 7 commits for 2019. 3 5 stars and 4 4 stars.

You have to remember they can't sign a full glass this year so their ranking will be artificially low. You have to look at the average.

Wild Turkey · Jan 7, 2018

Honestly have no clue. They neee to:

1. Figure special team coverages out.
2. Revamp the secondary.
3. Figure out a new o-line personnel configuration.
4. Teach the QB how to check out of plays.
5. Get rid of the high school pass routes.
6. Developer running backs that run and block.
7. Integrate a TE into the offense.

I don't have a lot of confidence in any of this past the secondary issues.

So pretty much like every Auburn off season, lol.

Retool the Offense for Murry, he is a skilled passer and a better runner than Baker. Expect a lot more RPO with an emphasis on run unless Murry can get the timing Baker had, I do not think accuracy is going to be an issue.

I know that Lincoln has expressed that Mike is a good coach but, I have to think he is in the background at least thinking of a way to phase Mike out, even it it starts with a Co-DC like Bob did to Venebles. The Defense was very young (especially the middle linebacker corps) and some seasoning and a nice DB pick up in recuriting shoud help.

All in all, I expect 2018 will be a rebuilding year with a much better year in store for them in 2019. The are probably looking at a nine win and maybe eight win season n 2018.

Which is still higher than Bama's?

Across The Field · Jan 8, 2018

I'm excited, as this is the first time I can remember where we're going into the offseason gearing up the offense for what should be a MUCH more balanced attack. We will still run more than we'll pass, but we have a QB who can actually handle 30-35 attempts a game with real success, which should help open things up even more for the running game. If the Haskins we saw against michigan (top 5 pass defense in the nation) is the real Haskins, OSU will be a heavy favorite to repeat as B1G champs and will make a strong playoff run.

We're also bringing Mike Weber back, which means we're likely to have the deepest backfield in the nation. Weber ran for 626 yards and 10 TDs last year backing up freshman JK Dobbins, who finished the year 1403 yards rushing and 7 TDs - and now there will be more carries to go around with JT Barrett 165 carries himself, as Haskins isn't going to be running that much. We're also bringing in the nation's #1 all-purpose back along with the #4 and #11 RB, not to mention still having Demario McCall (2016 #2 all-purpose back) and Antonio Williams (2016 #7 RB).

2018 OSU should be the best Buckeye team since 2014's NC team.

Pretty much. Except we don’t have to find a new QB.

Everything is gonna be new for us.

Outside of spring ball, hopefully NOTHING.

I hate this time of year. If any team/player makes a Headline and it's not Spring Ball. It's almost always bad news. I want a nice very quiet, 7 months.
