It's going to be interesting to see what happens. HMS is having some issues getting their hands wrapped around their new car, right now they don't have a Jeff Gordan and a Ray Evernham to right the ship. Folks don't think about this much but look what happened to JJ's career after Jeff retired. ( JJ did get number 7 in 2016 ) I say all of that to say, HMS could use a veteran like a Hamlin or a Joey who could come in tell you what's wrong with the car. All of their drivers admit that they don't work that way, now you bring Connor who is having a hard time this year.

My memory gets fuzzy sometimes on timelines (it's funny in that I remember timelines from 40 years ago better than I do from 10-15 years ago) - but JJ went downhill fast from his prime - whereas when Jeff fell off (prior to that), I felt it was more gradual (he just couldn't beat Jimmie head-to-head - and then Keselowski punted him from the Chase when he had his last legitimate chance to win a 5th Championship).

I always felt that it had more to do with Chad Knaus than anything else - but like I said, I get really fuzzy on the timelines sometimes.

Jeff was my dude... still is - that's why I pull for the #24.

I really wished they would have gone and tried to poach Chastain for that #48 ride.
