From Athens - Game Day Friday # 10

Mainly because we feel we have such a good man that represents our University well and hopes that he will get his good coaching days BACK. School's still out but the island people are waiting til the "final bell" rings to decide.


Hey MH.....I thought you were one of the 5-6 that are on the Isle of Paradise??

yd1, wasn't MH one of the ones willing to wait and see? All of us got irate before settling down and thinking a little more rationally.[/quo


I was definitely one of the "irate" after the SC game, but did settle down. I'm with you, still think it's time for an upgrade at the OC spot, but have definitely gained more faith/confidence in CMR...mainly because I think he's taken over a good bit of the play calling which tells me he's willing to make some tough staff/personnel calls based on what's best for the program and not what's best for the personal feelings of his staff. And yeah, still think Bobo gotta go go.

As for the Island, I'll be there Saturday with an ice cold "kool aid" in my hand.

Mayor Wlayton, I guess I was the main one that said we'd be 5/7 after the USC loss. I am slowly tring to become a beliver, but as I have stated over and over, I have seen improvement, and the D seems to be hitting hard. I still have concerns about our playing a ranked team, a team with a winning record. As ya'll know, we have not beat a ranked team in some time, not have we beaten a team with a winning record. With that said, I still see a whole different team than years before, and a team that seems to try and find a way to win. Am I on the island, or was a banished . I try not to be so negitive, but I just have to tell it like I see it, until I am proven wrong. If we beat Auburn, a ranked team, a team with a winning record, I will believe that we have turned the corner, and we will become a force to be reckoned with.

Go you hairey dawgs beat the you know what out of them birds or tigers, I hate teams that have to have 2 mascots, must be some sort of idenity problem.

Hey duck, big welcome back. Everyone on the island certainly understand what you are saying ......that's why the final "bell" hasn't rung yet but hopefully the end of the "school year" is approaching and the DAWGS will have a passing grade and graduate. Guess we'll see......certainly CMR has been passing a few courses lately.

Not sure if you were on of the original group list that was "cast out" to the island but we always have a cool one waiting on anybody that wants to join us.

If a coaching change was to happen let be after all this years games have been played.

Seems that may prove out to be our be choice. There was also the subject of drinking the kool-aid, to me that was code for pass another beer.


"Go Dawgs"

If we do go to SECCG, and I feel we will, and by chance win "the Island" which was once a quiet tranquil paradise by most accounts, will be over-run.

I too have wondered what the qualifications were to gain admittance. Now that I know, I should have been swimming in that direction it looks like. By the way....I'm not a very fast swimmer. Hope I make it before all the prime real estate is gone!

Bring me some Kool-Aide please. Go Dawgs!

TN Dawg.....you were in the boat when we first left for the island. I know you were one of the first "settlers" of the Isle of Paradise. You've been one of our biggest assets on the island, right yd1??

Cool! I've been having a blast, drinking too much Kool Aid at those Wild 'N Crazy parties and didn't even realize it. Been having too much fun watching my Dawgs grow up this year!

TN Dawg, guess all of us on the island are a bunch of......"WILD AND CRAZY GUYS".

(but most of us are in bed by the 9:00 PM shadow from the coconut tree.....geez, hard getting old)

Okay... so who is Skipper, and who is Gilligan?
