    100% confident in a conference championship.

    75% on an undefeated season.

    I'm thinking 10 wins is the ceiling for this team, with 6 wins as the floor. The last 6 games of the year are totally brutal.

    IMO I think Tony left this place too bereft of talent to compete at the top of the conference this year.

    We're going to be stomping mudholes very soon, though.

    Next year's recruiting class is going to destroy worlds, as long as we can hang on to everyone. I think part of holding the recruits will be success this season. Seems like there's rumors Jordan Elliott is already shopping around and using official visits on P5 schools like Oklahoma.

    I think the only thing Herman's hiring should engender is patience: among the fans, students and alumni; clearly he's the best they could have gotten and holding him to conventional standards or expectations might only force a premature dismissal and reawaken the true curse of any weak program, a lack of continuity. I would honestly wait five years for a .500 season and seven years for 7 wins, which should probably be the long term standard.

    LOL, 5 years for a .500 season? You do realize they were over .500 last year, right?

    Bad decision for him to leave early. I understand why he left but still bad.
