Seven bold predictions for Ragin' Cajuns football, Michael Desormeaux in 2022

[RaginDave]

Win the west. Anything less than that will be a disappointment. Anything better than that will be exceptional in Dez season 1.

In the last 50 years it has happened 20 times. Less than half the time. In that same time we have won 7 or more 13 times. 8 or more 9 times. So Anything 7 or more is rarified air for us.

I recognize the paradigm has shifted for us in the last few years. But to say 7 is automatically unacceptable is just ignoring history and the reality of the turnover this year.

I do think we have a huge potential upside, I wouldn't be shocked by double digit wins, but our downside this year is lower than the last couple.

You may be to smart and logical for this board!

Nah man, I'm just making excuses while crying in my towel about the unacceptable prediction that I didn't make.

I already said, "Yours wasn't a prediction it was an acceptance."

ps not every post I make on the subject is intended to be directly directed to you, my intention was a clarification question to you, that you answered.

Thank you.

8-10 wins every season is a reasonable expectation of success. There will be outliers on that curve. How many would be happy with a decade of 8-10 win seasons? I’d be damn happy.

That would be outstanding! However, if one 7 win season slipped in there, some would want the coach fired!

A good AD would, hopefully, be able to identify why a particular win loss circumstance is happening. It could be the head coaches fault just like it could be positive for ten plus wins.

An absolute number is foolish.
