You guys don't seem to understand, we live in a community that started to become accustomed to us beating #5 WVa, #9 Louisville, #17 Auburn, #23 Fl State. How many of them do you think will flock to rayjay to watch us play Tulane & Temple?

And by the end of 2007 the stands were mostly empty. Unless this teams wins 10 games a year the fans aren't coming. I don't think it matters who we beat. If we are 9 - 1 going into the last games of the year the stands will be much fuller.

By the end of 2007, the game was insignificant. Now, all of them are! Winning a conf with SMU, Tulane, Temple, E Car & whoever will be like winning the MAAC. Nobody will give a ****! Edited by Sitting_BULL

I'm curious to know what you bulls think the differences were that brought the results that we got -and what do you think we will need to exceed all prior levels of achievement? I'll give it a go:

Why would they send you a card from Willie Taggart?

Good job marketing. Now keep it up.

Leavitt - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

Holtz - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

Taggart-JOB 1 -Win the Conference - ???

Leavitt - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

Holtz - JOB 1 - Win the Conference - FAIL.

Taggart-JOB 1 -Win the Conference - ??? **** Of course now it's also a completely different conference. 3 years ago, Tulane, Temple, E carolina, etc, would have been considered tune up games. Now, they are conference foes, meaning they can beat us! Quite a few steps backwards has this once skyrocketing program taken.

There's never been a point in our history where 1A games like that would have, realistically, been considered tune up games ...

I respectfully disagree. A few years ago, we would've been pretty heavily favored against any of those teams. This year AND MAYBE next and beyond, not so much.

But I'm glad you guys are happy about the direction of the program. At least someone will be in the seats at RayJay.

+1

We recently lost our first game against a non-BCS opponent since joining the Big East.

+2

Going into those games we all had the expectation of a win, and I think that's what he meant. The expectation of winning is part of a winning culture, and I'm disappointed with the "we have to take our lot in life" mentality that some of the core posters/mods on this board have sunk to. That is NOT the mentality that Leavitt EVER had, and it's NOT the mentality that ANY successful individual or institution has ever had.

GO BULLS!!

Thank you! At least some on here aren't constantly wearing their green & gold goggles! :GoBulls:

+3 those games were most definitely tune ups. Even the bowl games where we played ECU Memphis and NIU I thought were relatively gimme bowl games.

It is so sad as a fan base that some believe games vs ECU, Tulane, and Temple are no longer gimme games.

It's equally as sad that they think these games will draw a crowd if we are 9-1! 9-1 against a bunch of nobody's wont draw a crowd unless we play at our soccer field!

Leavitt and Holtz have a lot in common.

Both are gone, never to return.

Taggart is here, that is what is important today.
