agreed , he said we would b n playoffs. next yr will b most guys leave via portal than ever,
no player that is marketable going to stay here, recruiting class will implode, most coaches will jump,
everyone will know he's here cause we too cheap to buy out, it will b much worse than this yr,
the same as mens bball will b this yr

Guys, the portal changes everything. We can lose half the team in the portal and still field a winning team in 2027. Today's Athletes care about two things, NIL and playing time--that's it. I just don't trust Beamer and Co., to get the best portal players.

You cancelled your own argument in 2 sentences.

Well, he did do it with the OL this year. We completely gutted the OL and re-tooled it from the portal. And it's working well.

What do we need? If we hold onto Dobson, I'd say we need a couple players for secondary help. Pick up a couple solid WRs.

How eager will donors be to give NIL money knowing that Beamerbis a lame duck coach only being retired because of the buyout?

I am prepared for another year of Beamer, it is just our reality. It will be depressing like 0-21, but they should be able to fire him in December 2028.

nothing's going to change between now and then. Stop kidding yourselves.
agreed. I think it will be a swift, quiet run to the portal from a few of our "bigger" names that are staying in CFB for now.
Maybe we will get lucky like that one year when UF was in the shytter and Auburn hired west coast bryan harsin and thought he'd be a good fit in the SouthEastern Football Conference.
I'm not sure...but I'm pretty sure Bryan Harsin was luggin' boxes at bargain city for a couple years after that Auburn firing.

They can't get the best players.

He's like a customer lingering around in a grocery store after closing time. The employees just want the person to leave so that they can go home.
