The team appears to be on the decline
They have been experiencing more defections than in the past
The team is not entertaining to watch and attendance has been a big disappointment considering the new stadium hype
Their schedule is very difficult: Open w/a good Ohio team, UCLA, at Oregon State, Boise, @ AF, @hawaii, NV, Utah St, @ CSU, @sjsu and finish w/Fresneck. I see very few sure wins in the schedule
The OL is a huge concern after a # of defections and little experience or depth
The WR group isn't going to scare anyone
The DL is all new and w/limited experience
The QB, RBs and secondary SHOULD be pretty good
I'll project wins against Idaho and maybe Hawaii on the road but am not confident about any other opponents.
I could easily see a 1-5 start and if that's the case, you're looking at drawing 10k butts in the seats.
REACTION!

Hoke is our Steve Fisher. He’s had his taste at a top program and now wants to build something long term. He’s here long term. He made coaching changes. I believe the young energy that these coaches will bring will show up in game day. They keep recruiting better players.
Now, you always deal with a few kids who decide to quit football or can’t make grades because they chose to have too much fun. Now you also have to deal with kids wanting instant movement up the depth chart, guys deciding that they need to move up or down in competition and NIL money. It’s a new world and you can’t blame a coaching staff.
Instead of constantly wanting to get rid of Hoke, applaud the willingness he’s shown to make changes and donate so we can offer more NIL money.

Why assume a losing record? Why even hypothesize about it?

Well, considering this is coming from the guy predicting the hoops team was going to fall apart the final 7 games of the regular season, crash out of the MW tourney, and likely miss the NCAA tournament... we should be excited about the prospects for the football team... |

You are correct. I was wrong about that and made up for it by going to their sweet 16 and elite games in Louisville. Did you attend? |

Deflecting with an attempt to start a pissing contest. Classy. But in-character, I'll give you that.

Attending games in Orlando, Louisville, or Houston would have been for *my* enjoyment and benefit... the bet was for the benefit of the university's athletics program. The suggested $100 would have been sufficient in lieu of your whole checkbook.

Will Hoke be able to get us to the point where we can beat Fresno on a regular basis? I doubt it. At present, could we even afford to replace Hoke financially?

Are you able to man-up on your accusation of "all talk no action"? Esp. in light of failing to man-up on your bet? If I'm "no action" then you should have no problem at all agreeing to match any recent donations I've made to the MESA Foundation. Correct? |
