I think you had to start out the season being pretty unrealistic if you're disappointed now. The signs were there from the first quarter of the first game, we weren't very good, and were it not for a schedule that ranked about....well I'm not sure where it ranked but it was pretty rank, we'd have lost long before the Wisky game. We're about where I thought we were as a program, so I'm not disappointed. Doesn't mean I like what happened a couple times this year, but if you watched us play the first couple of games, and were being honest about it, it was pretty obvious what we were. So if you ignored the signs, then I can see how you'd be disappointed, but if you were paying attention....... I'll take 9-3 with a great shot to go 10-3. I'll gladly take that this year.

I liken it to the recent election. The signs were there for over a year, but nobody was paying attention. Record new voter registrations, rally attendance, the signs were not only there, they were shouting at the top of their lungs. Just like this team and what it was all year, to many people just didn't want to believe what they were seeing with their own eyes.

This is pretty much true.

I suppose 8 or 9 wins is enough for me. I'm not gonna do cartwheels.

If there's disappointment on my part, it's that we are not better or getting better.

Its not progress.
We set the nar very low in year one. Win nine games again like we have been doing and now its called progress?

Time will tell if riley wants to win badly enough to make the proper decisions and philosophy changes to do so. If he does, we can.


So you are advising MR, what specifically would you do? Start with coaches being replaced, player development, what would the philosophical changes be?

9-3 with a QB who didn't fit the system at all and really looked like he was trying to throw the game Friday with all the yolobombs. I'll take it.
