I'm wondering where you Bulls are with your impressions of the program thus far.

 

Feeling better than when Holtz was here, same, or worse?

 

Can this program be resurrected starting next year or is it going to take longer than that?

 

-----------------

For me, I had no idea how bad off we really were in terms of talent and positional need. Yeah, I knew we had a need for a QB and a starter RB. But I didn't know how bare our cupboard was as far as putting a decent team on the field.

 

I think the key is to have somebody to build the program around. I'm hoping it's Mike White.

 

We could do it with a RB. But I don't see anyone on the roster that fits that description.

 

If we elevate the whole team, it's going to take that much longer.

 

Fingers crossed! ----GO BULLS!

Post - Skippy I feel much better.

Also didn't realize how low the talent level had fallen although I do believe Coach Jim would have won a few more games with these players.

Did you know the last time South Carolina was 0-12 was a Holtz led year? Dad and Skippy.

I'm excited about the future...

Early into the xCSH era, but how far out into the future do we look?

 

I think CWT has a mission and blueprint to move the team from two abysmal years.

A lot of things associated with Bulls football may or may not be within our (ADDW/CWT) 

ability to address, but overall I'd say "feel better" is a fair assessment. This was our 

first real taste of what rebuilding is like. I'm sure, over the life of the program, we will

endure more rounds of the same.

I know you're just trying to be funny, but South Carolina was one of the worst programs in America when they brought Lou Holtz in, and he built the foundation for where they are today.

I will say 2 things:

 

1) CWT has far better clock management abilities (Not going for the element of surprise and not using available timeouts in redzone...CSH lol)

 

2) Defense is getting better each game (Too much bending AND breaking last year!!)

We're on the up and up, which is all I could reasonably expect at this point.
