I’m still willing to give BN a pass this year knowing the situation. Even though the schedule is brutal next year, this program should take a significant jump. You’ll be on your 3rd wave of recruits/transfers. Mertz will be a second year starter in the system. Young guys have another year to develop. The leash officially gets tighter next year and the expectation is this team is competing with every team on their schedule. No more blowouts, no more L’s to UK like programs etc.

I agree. He's made some rookie mistakes, but seems to be building a solid foundation off-field. But those foundational moves need to start paying dividends. Tough schedule, but if he's really moving in the right direction, he needs to start beating the Kentucky-type programs and not have the embarrassing blow out losses next year.

you're right about not getting blown out. i expect us to win 7 or 8 games next year because of the schedule, but we need to be competitive in every game. beat teams we're supposed to beat.
