Meh. Not exactly a bold prediction. It wouldn't be crazy for us to go 5-7 and it wouldn't be crazy for us to go 9-3. Anyone who thinks they know what our offense is going to look like is blowing smoke one way or the other. Bell is completely unproven. I get that he did things at a lower level, but so has every coach who's every been promoted up a level or they wouldn't have got the job. If Josh Heupel had flamed out last year, it wouldn't have been a surprise. You only get the next job up if you've done something in the past and it means squat the day the first whistle blows. Every player in our offense put up huge numbers in HS relative to the competition. It gets you to USF and then you're starting over again against a bunch of other guys who were awesome in HS. If you're awesome in college, you get to the pros against a whole bunch of other guys who were awesome in college, too.

3-9 with a loss to UConn. Similar to Strong’s third year at Texas when they lost to Texas. The Charlie Strong effect.

Great article!   Should be the first thing every player and coach sees when they walk in every morning.

What If I said in the race to be first, he got it wrong (again).

But, it's not really wrong.  It's just more published tripe without facts and just his feelings, nothing more than feelings....

USF seems to do better when the expectations are lower.

How can you lose to yourself.   Spring game?
