this is what we want, but what are our expectations?
I want to see legitimate progress on the recruiting trail by next summer (Friday Night Lights or whatever they call our big recruiting weekend in late July). Is that an unrealistic expectation, I don’t know. But it really doesn’t matter unless Mullen meets my expectation of making the playoff by year 5. Like I said in another thread, that’s always been my expectation for Mullen. For me, it’s usually 4 years for a new coach but I gave Mullen an extra year because of how bad the program was from 2010-2017 and how successful he was in his first 2-3 seasons. Give Mullen a 5th year with AR15 and some new coaching additions, and have a playoff or bust expectation. That’s where I’m at.

i don't think the upcoming recruiting class and a new defensive system will guarantee a playoff spot. maybe if they expand it, but it definitely won't be a top 4 contender next year. i would think it would take at least 2-3 recruiting classes to make up for it ('23-'25) and i don't think we're willing to give him that much time.
