I wouldn't say embarrassing, especially since we just went through the very public gaffed hiring process less than a year ago. I think that people seem to have forgotten just how bad the program, and the University, has been the last 1.5 decades. There's been a constant and continual decline ever since Bensel Meyers started up.

We have a mess that isn't going to just disappear in a few months, patients is a great thing

I've been patient a long time. I can be patient a bit longer, but I will be less patient with CJP than CBJ.  The reason being, I don't think the cupboard is quite as bare as when doofus left.  But it's not great either.  I think expecting 7-8 wins next season against a much easier schedule is not unrealistic, and those are my expectations.  And if...I stress if...all goes well we might compete for the East in 2020 if JG continues to develop and we find an OL and DL.  It's possible.

I think that you're thinking on a smaller scale than I'm speaking of, I'm talking of the entire athletic program and the executive portion of the university itself. More specifically, a good start would get the Pilot money and its influence out of the decision making process, strike a good balance between athletic and sports program interests and even possibly setting up a morals, standards and performance expectations agreement witht he student athletes.

A 7-8 season next year isn't the answer that I'm intrested in.

Hey Pirate!  Can't complain, been doing pretty well.  I do the occasional fly-by to check up on everyone here. I only wish we had a team worthy of posting about!

I assume in that last sentance you mean you are thinking longer term?  That's fine.

I have heard many decry the decisions that have been made, but few specifics.  What decisions in particular are you referring to?

I'll throw one out. Whoever decided to hire Hamilton should be gut shot and then dragged behind a horse.   :naughty:
