[QUOTE="Samuel S, post: 129403050, member: 1754664"] We play 5 games this year against weak competetion. We play 3 games against what appear to be good teams. We play 4 games against roughly equal competition. If we come to accept 2-5 records against the non-weak competition as being always acceptable rather than justifiable if offset by at least an equal number of winning records against decent completion, we are essentially throwing in the towel. If this were a truly down year under Dana then patience would be justified. This isn't a down year (at least not yet). It's what we've become with him as our coach. 11-20 in the Big 12, with 6 of those games against Kansas and ISU; 6 of them against KSU and TTU. Even in those 12 games we are only 5-7. Below .500 against a group NO ONE would claim includes a single team with superior talent. And, even if you choose to concede we should just resign ourselves to being worse than the other 5 teams as some sort of irreversible reality, is 6-13 (a .315 WP) defensible? [/QUOTE]
