that there is a middle ground on Jones to be reached between the extremes of the fanbase that wants to fire him and the fanbase that thinks he deserves a life time contract.
We missed the one goal that the entire reasonable thinking fanbase would have been elated with - win the sec East. We missed it because of a fluke loss vs SC. Reality is that sleepwalking through games finally bit us in that one. That's the bad
The good is potentially 9 wins and a upper tier bowl. That's a good season. Plenty of SEC east winning seasons have ended with worse than the sugar bowl. That's the good and it's really good.
The unknown - can Butch win the East if not this year? Is our recruiting tailing off? Why can't we make a dent in in-state recruiting - we are on the verge of putting 3 mid state guys in the league in early rounds? All these point to whether or not this is the high water mark.
