I hope so, but I think that unfucking is going to have to be of biblical proportions.
You saying Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?
Well, you thought Abraham should have told God to kiss his ass, so I disagree with your disagreement. But seriously, folks....I think the talent level on this team is far better than the results on the field. Not saying much, but... The so called "experts" couldn't be wrong about all these kids. In retrospect, I believe the previous coaching staff started to implode in 2011, the minute this program actually had to rely a good bit on coaching. Other than Malzahn having the kids to run his system and a head coach who told the media to fuck itself in 2010, there was no coaching. But...there was leadership. Lots of it. 2010 had a huge group of experienced players who follwed lock-step with the ultimate talent and ultimate leader. Cam Newton. Coaching didn't cause them to overcome deficits in all those games. Looking at each other and saying, "It's time to kick some ass", was the key. There were no leaders in 2011 and no coaching to get them on track. As the season wore on, they did something on numerous occasions I'd never seen an AU team do....QUIT. They quit in 2011 and damn, had they ever quit by season's end this past year. There was something horribly wrong throughout the program and cleaning house was the right move. No doubt. Will a new staff and new attitude automatically make us contenders in the West? No freakin' way. Too many deficiencies at too many positions. But, those can be filled in short order. I've used the example of Ole Miss...and that's sad....but a new staff came in this past year and turned a 10 loss team into a damn competitive bunch who went and won a bowl game. I think that kind of season is attainable while we're on our way back up.
Christ on a cracker.I want to agree with you, but you wrap up by essentially saying that we aspire to be Ole Miss.
