None now.
If we go 0-12, and enough big $$$ alumni raise enough Hell and put their money where their mouth is, maybe a firing and buyout happens.
Even after this fiasco, I don't see that THIS year...

Much better attitude and effort. These guys are figuring it out.

nwpoke said:I didn't see last week. I did see marked improvement today after the 2d quarter.
I've got a career full of watching youngsters figure shit out. this team will do ok, but some crowd support would be good.
nwpoke said:I saw a young team lose their 2d string qb and their poise, and then decide to play football instead of quitting, despite a 3rd string qb who was scared shitless. That's marked improvement from the team that was playing touch, poorly, during the first half.
Small steps, folks. Ya'll are all butthurt that we're not a top 20 team, when we're still learning how to tie our shoes. These guys have the potential to be decent. I hope sooner rather than later, because that 1st half was bad, but we will get there.
No doubt.nwpoke said:FBS my ass. If we complain about BYU and their 30 year old seniors, we need to recognize freshman have a lot of growing before they're truly competitive. They have to walk before they run.

So, we are apparently the only team in FBS that has Freshmen?
Each team has 85 scholarships to use (minus penalties). You find the 85 best players you can, and you put them on the field. Our 85 are significantly worse than the vast majority of the rest of the FBS. That's the problem. It's not new guys, it's the talent. Just because a player is 18 or 19 and not 22 or 23, doesn't mean they aren't talented. There are plenty of talented freshmen and sophomores in FBS.
