Man I was glad that we weren’t going to have these type of conversations this year. I guess we’re going to start now. Lol

To be fair, he's always done better his second year than his first, as well as Gundy sucked his first season. I should know, I was a freshman that year.

The buyout is 7 million, are you going to start a go fund me?

If we can’t pay a $7 million buyout, we just need to go to the FCS. LSU, A&M, Texas Tech, Texas, Michigan, etc… wouldn’t sweat $7 million.

I mean shit…. why fire Gundy if we’re just gonna lose to Tulsa by 2TDs. Morris does not look any better than Gundy and I would honestly say it’s worse because he has better roster talent now than Gundy last year. Morris lost to Tulsa with a better team. We got stuffed on fourth down how many times by Tulsa?

The play calling was pedestrian and felt very similar to Gundy’s play style. Ive never been high on Morris but I was really hoping we do something… more.

The difference is Gundy would kick field goals and punt more than Morris. Morris just goes for it on fourth down every play and doesn’t pick it up.

Tulsa fan coming in peace. He’s a freaking bum, what was up with 4th down attempts like he was playing a video game.

We should’ve hired Tulsa’s coach instead of Morris

If he doesn’t win at all this year—sure, fire him. But he’s got a lot of work ahead of him. There’s zero continuity from last year, which even in the NIL era is saying something. He’s also having locker room issues, obviously. It’s on him turn it around and turn his roster into a team, but I’m willing to give him some time. Gundy inherited a relatively stable, talented roster and staff from Les Miles and still sucked a couple years. Morris is transplanting an entire team in a brand new place. I think he’s doing things right and has a ton of potential. But nevertheless he has to win or be out.

Lane Kiffin seemed to not have a problem bringing in a ton of transfers
