It's too bad that we don't play FAU in mid to late October.  Leavitt's defense will have begun to crap the bed by that point.

It's a law of physics!

FAU 35 

SMU 14

Wow and ouch!  Willie and The Jim should be able to keep the ball rolling for them next year.

Not a bad gig to finish out your career, if thats what he chooses to do.  

FAU is set up for success at their level, and they are in warm beautiful Boca Raton.

Hmmm.  Im watching FAU give SMU all they can handle right now - tied up.  That same SMU team that embarrased us at home this year.

Unless we see noticeable improvement quickly next year, Im not as optimistic.

Trying to glean something from a meaningless exhibition game is pretty much fruitless ....

The one thing that you can glean is we were a bad team this year, we can argue to what extent but can’t argue that we stunk.

Maybe so.  But FAU completely dismantled SMU.  Maybe SMU really wasnt interested in being there.  Very possible. 

I think Im impressed more because of the score differential.  If it was a close game Id feel differently.

Certainly doesnt have much bearing on what happens next year.  I will agree with that.

I dont think anybody will argue with you on that.  Hence the firing and hiring of a new coach which isnt cheap.  Hopefully a significant upgrade and only good days ahead from here.

Or waiting for Slick Willie to do his thing and then take the head coach position.

Id like to see him finish his career in Florida, even if its not here.
