I dont see how ppl can scream for Freshmen/Sophomores to take starters positions for better play and still blame last yr on BIlly.
What's crazy about how much flack Billy got last year was that he finished with the same exact record (6-7) that Mullen/Knox did the year before, and with a harder schedule (Tennessee and FSU had re-emerged, and we opened with Utah instead of FAU).

I agree with the call for patience, and also think year 4 (at this point we've stacked some talent), is when we might start to be threatening again.
But we have to be honest with ourselves: will our demanding fan base and recruits (who can be pretty fickle) give Billy that much time? In the era of NIL and the portal, where other schools are showing the ability for relatively quicker overhauls?
We don't have to be world beaters, but to at least keep the fans and recruits interested, we are going to have to win some games we shouldn't.
