A. The athletics department is losing money. In fact, we are the only athletic department in the SEC to lose money?
Thought we moved to the SEC for finacial reasons? Where did all that big money go?
B. Attendance is down and ticket sales for 2018 is worse than 2017? Even more embarrassing is that we changed how we calculate attendance several years ago to count tickets sold, passes, freebies..etc. instead of actual attendance. That's why games with a half-full stadium are listed at over 50k.
C. On the field the team hasn't beat a team with a pulse under Odom.
D. We continue to schedule nobodies for our non-con schedule. Games against Central Michigan, North Texas and FCS teams don't excite the fan base. Neither does the SEC East with the exception of Georgia every other year. The SEC East has been the worst division in CFB throughout our tenure.
E. We can't recruit. Our current recruiting is an absolute joke and dead last by a MILE in the SEC.
How bad is it?
The next WORST team has nearly triple the recruiting ranking points per Rivals than we do.
The cheerleaders here say,
"it's only July and signing day isn't until December"
That's like saying we're only down 42-0 @ halftime, we will be fine. BS, this coaching staff has dropped the ball!
