Based out of the last three years they are right. Hopefully Golesh can fix that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're losing guys on the O-line, all but 2 of our top skill people on offense and we have little talent on defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe crazy Deion comes in and brings in 4 and 5 star recruits while burning down the program. But there was no one else that we could get that is going to do that. Like coach said had the presser, lots of hard work. So I don't expect an immediate rebuild. Heck, BJ told me he didn't know the guy. He wouldn't mind being the QB coach either.

We're losing guys on the O-line, all but 2 of our top skill people on offense and we have little talent on defense. We were horrible this year, but still kept it close with teams like Florida, Cincy, Tulsa and UCF. I think in the new conference we should be able to win 4 games this upcoming year. But yes next year will be tough, and I am willing to give new coach somewhat of a pass in the first year, but a bowl game year 2 is minimum. Year 3 I expect to compete for conference championship. Anything else I will consider failure; at which point I will have lost all confidence in Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything else I will consider failure; at which point I will have lost all confidence in Kelly. The approach to this year is different. There is no expectation for 4+ wins BUT if they win 5-6 would you be surprised with this new conference configuration? I would say we should be ok with 2-3 wins, as long as the losses do not look like they did for the past 3 years. Getting your doors blown off by Temple, then playing Cinci, UCF, UF close screamed unprepared and unmotivated. That was on the staff. My main expectation would be consistency, cant lose to bad teams by a lot then get up for tough games and win/almost win them. On top of that there should be accountability, if we have guys getting beat on D or constantly dropping passes, they should be watching from the sidelines until they prove they can be relied on. I feel like in the past some guys got away with poor effort because the staff liked them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
