Ok Jim ... put your positive spin on a 6-6 season. What we are bowl eligible again? Being eligible means NOTHING to me if we are at home watching. That is where we have been and that is were we will be again.Quote:

I consider your opinion to be valuable, so I will not ask you to drop dead.
Dude, seriously? Probably the dumbest thing ever said on this board.Quote:

Why are most here acting like we have been a 7-8 win program through our long history. We have never been. We have had a good year here and there. Now we have had a little success and a foundation is being built and most want to destroy it because they think we should win more but none of us are coaches. We were picked 6th and to win 4-5 games. We did better than that. We were up and down. Just like we were when we were breaking in Desormeaux, Fenroy and those other guys. The schedule will be tougher but we will be improved and add Robert Walker to the mix. It is just a game. Enjoy it and don't worry about everyone else. As fans we do that a lot. And we miss what have right under our nose.
This post is pretty much 100% aligned with my thinking. I love Rickey Bustle as a person. He did a great job resurrecting us from a complete dumpster fire to a team that is, for the most part, at least competitive year in and year out. He's recruited some good players and we've had some good years. But I think we've reached the point where what we see is what we're going to get. He's had a few senior classes all the way through their careers now, so this is 100% HIS program, and his program is .500 football. Every year, we get trounced by a couple BCS schools, do well against the mid-major or two that we play, and finish 3rd or 4th in conference because we lose one or two that we have no business losing.Quote:
