If head coach Ed Orgeron did not get through to his players in the spring of 2020 that the previous season was the past and the future is the focus, the 5-5 campaign in the fall should have emphatically stamped home the point. When the 2021 season gets going, the Tigers will have a roster full of familiar names but the look on the sidelines will be drastically different with a critical spring session in hopes of contending for another SEC title.
If Orgeron wanted to put the 2019 national championship season in the rearview mirror, he most definitely wants to forget about the 5-5 effort that wrapped in December without a bowl game.
