What would these things be?
Was his first season not good for what he had? We had the same record as Kiffin did his first year(Im counting UNC a win because he did beat them) with a much harder schedule and less talent.
He has recruited great for the circumstances UT has been in, and is usually the first guy to offer a player before they blow up so he is good at evaluating talent. Examples are Patterson, Peters, Santos, Peterman, Jordan Williams, and Mo Couch. I expect it to be a lot better if he can win ball games this year.
Last year was bad but the circumstances were hard to overcome. He lost his 4 best players, including the qb and best reciever. In a pass offense like UT's was last year, its going to be a problem. Look what happened when Keenum went down in 2010. Sumlin went 5-7.

Decent, but still a losing record.

LOL. We should have won but we made a hell of a lot of mistakes in the final few minutes which is par for the course for a Dooley team.

I agree with this, but he did have a worse record.

Top 15 classes will not get it done in this league.

Could be a problem considering he has shown nothing that leads me to believe he can win games.

Janzen, Hunter, Bray, and who?

This is why you need to be able to run the ball. Continuing to pass the ball with what we had last year is dumb as frick.
