Shhhhh! There goes our #5 all-time best team ranking

Better go ahead and win 'em all again now, then we can be #5 AND #6! Dabo is smart that way.

He is 110% right.
This year we are 117 to 20 in the first three games against GT, A&M and Cuse
compared to:
114 to 40 against Furman, GaSo, and a&m in the first three games
or
104 to 70 against GT a&m and cuse.
The scariest thing is that the D is playing better... but so is the offense.

I know he didn't mean it this way, but Dabo's statement this team is "way ahead" and "it's not even close" vs. last year is a direct shot at Kelly Bryant's shortcomings.
Sure enough you can argue the O-line is better, ETN/LJD have improved, Higgins & Ross have improved, the schedule in the first 3 games is tougher (GaTech/A&M/SU vs. Furman/A&M/GA Southern), blah, blah, blah.
But we all know what the really big contrast is with games 1-3 last year. Even a flawed TL is still in another galaxy compared to KB.

Dabo doesn't point fingers at any 1 player whether past or present in a negative manner. IF you look at the numbers he does make a good point. The Defense has been outstanding! Look at the goal line stance last week against Cuse! The offense at times looks good but from an eye test they have yet to hit that high gear. Its early .. And we should only get better. We will need to as we get near the playoffs cuz there are some better teams this year! Go Tigers!

Sometimes the troof can be unkind, and the troof can hurt at times, but the troof is the troof, and attempting to make it look less trooful, it doesn't make it any less trooful!!!

Umm not really last year in the first 3 games we scored 48, 28, and 38 (114). This year through 3 games 52, 24, and 41(117). So not an over whelming score increase but total yards (not typing that much) and points/yards allowed showed surprisingly marked improvement. And that's against 3 power 5 opponents. Considering the front 4 we lost to the draft I'm excited for this year after 3 games.

He is talking about the team not KB (you need to let that go and someone already said)and he is right. Tougher completion and the defense is playing solid - unlike last year where we had open receivers running all over the field and the offense while sputtering at times has already shown we can do whatever we need to do (hint to play calling however - we don't have to try to score on every play - just run the offense and take what is there).

I know it’s good talk and prep but Charlotte has best player and team than the prior three games? “Next game is the biggest” and “one at a time” sound good but let’s give those other teams we beat some credit too. I know it’s not what he meant but geez. Go Tigers

You could also see his message as there isn't any useful bulletin board comments in his message, and those that we have already played, they are in our rear view mirror for the rest of the season, and that means there is no bulletin board messages that can help them the rest of the season either!!!

We don't have a snowball's chance in Phoenix AZ in the middle of the summer, but wait a minute, there would be a little chance if we played them in the mountains of Flagstaff AZ.

I agree with Dabo. We have a lot of areas to improve on but defense isnt one of them. Those guys just need to keep doing what they're doing until the offense finds its groove.

For a second there, I was looking for Dabo to tell us that UNCC would probably roll right through the ACC and the SEC, just kidding, but he was laying on them with an extra layer of all the good stuff!!!

Right in the middle of saying the exact opposite, we have this gem...
“We were further along than we are right now as an offense.”
