I know some of you really hate the things I have to say (genuinely sorry about that), so for this thread, I will spare you and ask, what is your level of concern for CJM heading forward?: 1 = no concern whatsoever, 10 = alarm bells are ringing.

Actual answer is a 3. I think once he gets his QB, the offense will be fine. I still want to see him be more adaptive in a game once he realizes something is not working.

I still believe in JoMo's offense, but I'm surprised at how awful it has been in the losses. No matter the reasons, this has been unacceptably bad.

4 for now. I reserve the right to revise upward after December 19 and then again after Feb 6, 2019.

4, but really want to see how the remainder of the season, early signing day, the bowl and late signing day all go. It could go as low as 1 or up to 10 with the worst case scenario.

5 for me, although I’m currently not nearly as concerned as I am disappointed in his belief that he needed to squander this season for the sake of forcing his offense into place.

I will say, though, that my 5 will increase rapidly if we lose one of the next two games or if this entire QB situation blows up in his face next year. I’ve got an extremely uneasy feeling about the future of our offense at the moment

1.5 * number of losses. So it's 6 and hopefully holding steady.

He has 2 stud running backs that get hardly any carries while his offense struggles for last place in the SEC and one of he worst in the country.

Does he adapt? Nope.

So we just sit and wait on a QB that is in high school to come save us. I’m sure that will work out great.

Really depends on on what next year brings offensively and if we can just please keep a DC for more than one year.

Ask me again in 2 weeks. It'll either be a 3, a 6 or a 10. These games are make or break for our coach.

I’m at a 4 right now. Win out and win the bowl game and it will likely move to a 3 for me. But lose either of the next two games and I’m at a 7 or 8. There are zero excuses for losing to Arkansas or Ole Miss this year, including a major injury like the one we had last year.

8 -- Must be able to adapt to personnel on hand especially if you are thought of as an guru.

Pretty much spot on with your first sentence to me. I gripe about him not force feeding our RBs more. I think that would have made our offense much more successful this year. He can give our RBs 10-15 more carries again and still play within his system.
