It will take time for Leach to get things rolling. I just hope we don't have fans freaking out at the first sign of deficiencies. Gotta give him time to build his team which is in my opinion a minimum of 3 years before we will know exactly how successful he will be here.
Shotgun does this every year. By the time season starts we will have some predicting 9 wins and when we don't reach that benchmark they will be claiming that Leach isn't going to work and they knew it from the time he was hired. In all reality the next two years are going to be transition years it is what it is. I would love to eat some crow on that but I don't see more than 7 wins this year and 8 next year with the floor being 5 and 6 win seasons.
I am not setting unrealistic expectations. I'm calling Kentucky a tossup game. They were not good this year and have not been good outside of 1 year in a very long time. Reading is fundamental. If beating a team that we have beaten 9 of the past 11 years who we outrecruit every year would surprise anyone on here then they simply have not been paying attention.
