Maybe I’ll be prepared to eat crow if Campbell can coach us out of this 14-point deficit against UCF. Hope he does; I’m already in on CFP tickets.

But, kind of odd to see this thread rebooted with all sorts of @s being thrown around when we haven’t even knocked out anyone of note this season, and barely squeaked by Iowa.

(But maybe my expectations for this program are just too high)

Eat some more crow.

Barring a total collapse (hard to see us finishing out worse than 2-3), should get to at least nine regular season wins which is the school record, and an opportunity in the post-season to go for #10.

I’ll dunk on the mediocrity comment more so. We’ve literally set record after record, done something that hasn’t been done before as well, 7 games in.

Not to mention how many accomplishments we've had over the last 9 years.

How many winning conference records did we have before Campbell? Very ******* few. Now it is almost a sure thing that we get to 5 conference wins every year.

I've revised and posted the TL;DR disclaimer as well as an abstract at the top of my Rot Recap dissertation.
Describing it as ‘rot’ invalidates any defense of that opinion, in my view.

I am sorry for your loss last night. Gotta wait 2 weeks for the next opportunity.

Wow, you think a lot of yourself don't you.


LAClone came back to let everyone know he has learned nothing and is incapable of change. Glad Campbell isn't as stubborn as he is.

I would like to be absolutely clear that I stand by every word that I said after the Memphis bowl game. We got humiliated by a mid-tier school with an interim coach! We were in no way ready for that game, even though we had the better part of a month to prepare for it.

I made some minor mistakes at my job a week ago. I very much deserved the mild criticism I got for it. Campbell probably makes more in a day than I make in a month, but I suppose that makes him BEYOND criticism for anything he does? To paraphrase somebody's uncle (or aunt), "With great pay comes great responsibility". At least, that is the way it SHOULD work. I guess that isn't the way things actually are.
