I'm talking about going something like 8-4 or better. Honestly, even 7-5 would show that we're capable of maintaining.
And it would also show Mullen that he can keep things going in the right direction. I'm sure he already believes this, but it would be a great sign for his ability to keep things moving in the right direction.
And it would also set us up to have a potentially monster 2017 season, with the QB back and last year's class all into year 3 in the program.
