You guys just take things far too seriously. I get where you are coming from with the whole attacking the players theme. That's not acceptable on any message board. However, there's a big difference between criticizing the players and coaches performance, or the programs for that matter, and personally attacking them. It doesn't take much to set you and Stormin into defense mode. In fact, it takes very little, and often times the only thing anyone is doing is stating the obvious.
If you prefer to bury your head in the sand then that's on you. You can't expect everyone to share that viewpoint. At some point reality is going to smack you in the face. You can be positive all you want, but that doesn't change facts. No one is saying anything that recruits or players don't already know. They aren't stupid. They know CPR is on the hot seat. They know the program is struggling. Of course fans on a message board are going to be critical of their team if they feel like the program is heading in the wrong direction. That's what fans do. If I'm a player that's what I'd expect them to do. They pay their hard earned money to support the program and attend the games. They deserve to see a better product.
