I'm almost as interested in how many wins we get as I am to see if Lewis can reduce the amount of "coach speak" to a reasonable level and give sensible interviews. And to see if there is some way to get a microphone to those asking the questions.  I agree that this would be a big improvement - but to me the coach just has to win. If he wins he can do interviews in a language I don't understand - and give them while wearing only his BVD's. Lol - well maybe not that extreme but just win and a lot of other things can be forgiven. jmo of course Go Aztecs!

I understand that a lot of the people here on AM would agree with the change you made. However, the only San Diego sports I care about are Aztec sports. The only world wide sports I care about are Aztec sports. I am also a SDFC (soccer) fan but this is the team's first year and I have been an avid SDSU athletics fan since the Coryell days. I think I can safely say that the Aztecs are really the only sports team I care about also.

Rocky will always be the GOAT HC of my generation. Letting him walk without a clear plan outside of Hoke 2.0 was a huge error. But he did have his faults, and our ceiling was pretty clear with him - contend for MWC championships and get to bowl games. I don't think his approach on offense ever gave any of the fanbase a sense that we'd break through and become a top 15 program, or a NYE bowl team. His teams were some of the most talented SDSU ever saw, but the offense, namely the passing game, would tank us 2 or 3 times each season. But he got us through realignment (we should've stayed in the Big East and AAC in 2012) and a new stadium without any drop off in play. Coach A1phaFast is stepping into a hard job, esp. with how fragile the conferences appear and it seems like CFB are on the cusp of another wave of realignment. He needs to win and win now.

Doe s the MW commissioner play much of a role in deciding what MW team goes where in Bowl games ? if so doubt she will be that excited to put PAC schools in better Bowl positions then MW schools better also make sure she can not fiddle with basketball I doubt it. The Bowls rotate their priority of choosing MW squads. I could see a scenario where the Aloha or NM Bowls pass over a PAC squad in favor of an MW squad this year.

After last season, I am SURE I would like to have ROCKY back. contending for conference title and a bowl each year would make me happy...not boring. Losing most games and poor defense is WAY more boring. I hope the AZTECS are better this season than last.. momentum is KEY - for recruits, for fans, for PAC12.

Just need 6 wins for a bowl & 2-2 in noncon & 4-4 in conference is very doable. Our D should be very good.

6-6 is possible! Wash St. Game n Cal game gonna b the indicators of the season as a whole. If 2-2 after No Illinois then might be fun year? Especially after last 2.
