I'm not saying the 2014 team wont be worse than 2013. My point is UT fans are relying on the step back for hopes of bowl eligibility.

Well sure. We have a lot of rebuilding to do, and any school, including you, taking a step back is to our advantage.

What we're hoping for is that steps back by other teams allow us to get a bit more positive press than what we usually get, which is "LOL TENNERSEEEEE"

Actually we're hoping we take a step forward. We were a better team last year than we were under Dooley despite the same record. A lot of people forget last year we replaced the every skill position on offense except for our RB -- our entire passing game, QB, WR, TE, were all brand new/inexperienced.

Losing an offense with QB Tyler Bray, Justin Hunter (NFL WR), Cordarelle Patterson (NFL WR), Zach Rogers (WR - NFL got cut at the end might've made it if he hadn't been so outshone by his teammates and landed as a late round pick instead), Mycal Rivera (NFL TE), and having the exact same record with an even more brutal schedule, walk-ons starting, and true freshmen/including walk-on true freshmen every where you look, says a lot about Jones' potential and how fricking awful Dooley was.

Not really, we should've beat y'all last year. It's not like we need a step back to compete with y'all
