All three prior, had Hud type schedules at their own low points, yet none since 96 had gotten over .500

4x 9-4 is incredible.

9-4 x 3

Not sure I understand your post.

Bustle went 6-5 in 2005.

I can show you numbers, but virtually any service you use will show a significant decrease in strength of schedule form the Bustle years to the Hud years.

This along with the change in the NOLA Bowl invite requirements account for ALL of the difference in records between the 2 coaches once Bustle had the schollys back up to near normal in 2005.

Bustle rebuilt a program from nothing. Hudpseth inherited everything and was given an easier schedule to boot.

It's not incredible. It's good. Against comparable or inferior opponents, 9-4 is good. It's not incredible. We had chances to have incredible seasons, and we failed because...I'll leave that one up to you...since you have all the answers.

We don't know what Bustle would have done with a 12th game in 2005 so he has to vacate the winning season. ;)

He was 6-5 in 2006 and lost his last game, then fired all his coaches, so he must agree with me. ;)

Didn't we just fire the entire defensive staff after a 9-4 season?

I heard it on solid info he was fired before he took that job. Are gonna have to fire an entire offensive staff while still having an "incredible" season?

If the Florida school hadn't rescinded their offer he would already have been gone.

Willis getting an NFL offer was a surprise, his departure was not.

---Now C-Hawk--have you been checking you Massey stats??? Got to admit they have lost to only pretty damn good teams----Don't know about their being inferior as they are ranked about 10 spots ahead of us!!!

Akron is not inferior to us, since we lost to them. But they are still not a good team. That loss should never have happened.

They "tricked" us...as did 3 other teams.

We got pounded by eastern michigan that year. They were and are one of the worst teams in D1. We beat some bad teams that year. How can you say they were better than our current schedule? Show me the numbers.

MT, north texas, Troy? Those teams are not any better then or now than what we are playing in conference currently.
