While on the outside, it appears to be a legitimate excuse based on the volume of injuries we had this year, it is not acceptable. Somehow we were able to beat A State and Middle with all of the injuries, but we were embarrassed by FAU, Troy and UTEP. I was at the Middle game and saw the offense open up the playbook, and the team had success. Why did it take until the last game to do this? This is just one example of many over the last few years. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Troy lose their starting QB to a season ending injury?

    This year we are losing some of the most talended athletes that this program has ever had. Assuming that we go 6-6 next year what will the excuse be, that we are young? _
    I don't think anyone is arguing that Bustle is a good guy. I like him and believe he was the right guy to get UL out of the hole Baldwin left. However like you said I don't think he is the right guy to get us to the next level.

    I feel badly for him because he does seem to be a really good guy. I know I wanted him to succeed just as everybody associated with the University did, and on some levels he has, but it is time.

    We are in the exact same place we were last year, only with 3 more wins, and 3 times as much frustration.

    If I was David Walker, I would write this on a piece of paper:

    "At least 7-5 or gone"

    Fold it up, put it in a lockbox, and open it in December 2009. Read it, and execute it's message.

    Lets talk about both of these. There were not 68 team bowl tie ins and being that the Sun Belt is relatively young and has mid major teams... how many primary tie ins does it have? I love the arm chair ADs on this message board.

    Stokley coached for 13 years... what was his best season?

    8-3 with a freshman QB

    Stokely had 7 winning seasons out of 13.

    2 conference co-championships out of the 3 years we were in the BIG WEST

    He did all of this with people on our side trying to block him at every turn. No recruiting money. No facility improvements. No conference affiliation for 10 of those years.

    He is not alone.... Before him?

    Robertson---3 winning seasons out of 6

    Tammeriello--3 winning seasons out of 6

    Faulkinberry--6 winning seasons out of 13

    From 1961-1996, that's 36 years, this program averaged a winning season every other year.

    I know all of that as well as the next guy. Go back and reread the question.

    Bustle did not get here until the '01 season so I think you should keep going.

    If you are trying to get that we are better now, you are correct but that isn't saying much. He has 1 win over a team with a winning record in the 7 years. He should have been let go at the end of lat year but he got an extra year...i like the guy but he has not done enough to keep his job.
