Rough Night last night in the Swamp, but enjoyed the atmosphere for a while. It's taken til now to post while sitting at the Airport headed back home.
I initially picked 8-4 for us but feel like I have said earlier in the season that I will have to temper my expectations for the team this year. 6-6 will be an accomplishment. I've told several and really feel this, especially defensively this is a product of the lack of attention to the entire program for the last several years. Even though Mustank could recruit, he made his contributions. Many of us have said that this is not going to be an easy fix and it will take a while.
Some of you have stated that the staff gets a pass this year and I agree. But with that pass it must continue that recruiting keeps tracking as it is, culture improves, players stay out of jail, and at least play disciplined - meaning not stupid football.
I really hate the fact that we lost to LSU and I am really starting to hate those M'fers. I already hate Kelly. But this has got to be the year, not matter how painful, that the culture of the program and how it is run gets addressed. I hope that is what is going on currently. Time will tell. But this too will pass. I just hope we can eeeeeek out 6 wins to get this group some developmental time to practice during bowl season.
Hang in there all, it's gonna be dicey the rest of the way.
