Our fans are no different than any other fan base, period.......
Historically- Leach was having to raise the talent level at the school he was at. Here- Year 3 is going to see a talent drop with all that we are likely to lose.Quote:

Sorry but I'm just not sold on the Pirate but I will always pull for MSU.
if we finish 7-5 im 100% in , I want one to be the egg bowl.... because we need it badly for momentum for recruiting..Quote:

I guess some of you forget Mullen had some years similar to this. Not to mention the threat of him leaving for another job every year. Imagine what that did to recruiting when the recruits weren't sure he'd be their coach. How's Mullen doing with better talent at FL right now?
Leach wanted to come back to the SEC to show it can work in the SEC. He absolutely does want to win. You should read his book where he tells several stories about doing absolutely everything he could think of to give his under matched teams a chance to win. He left a fake play sheet on the field when he was the offensive coordinator at Oklahoma for the Red River Rivalry game. It threw Texas for a loop and allowed Oklahoma to start the game 2 scores ahead.
He's done more with less than most coaches in the nation. Texas Tech was never a recruiting hotspot and neither was Washington State. We're not that much better, but do have access to higher quality players.
No (I already bought in, so really ya, but no ... doesn't change where I am). But we're going to win.
Truest words spoken here in a long timeQuote:

You have your hopes way too high.Quote:

I like Leach personally but hate his offense.... It's gonna take way more than a win against Kentucky to win me over and I'm not sure a win there would even be a start. For me this won't happen until possibly next year if we see more SEC wins and scoring improvement and I believe that will take a major adjustment to his current scheme ..... I really hope to be won over but it won't happen this yearQuote:

But hey! Let's not buy in and blow this all up so that we can go back to what never has worked before and gotten essentially the same results as Leach while he is just starting to implement his program.**
Not buying our fans suck Todd.Quote:

That is major, you start compounding good classes over good classes wins will become more and more normal and not so much cyclical like there were under Mullen.Quote:
