Because this isn't a "hit the floor" year. Whatever struggles we are facing this year are nothing compared to what we are facing say next year. This year we have:
-our most talented team in decades including a top 5 in draft DE
-a senior QB who has some experience and has beat Bama (showing his ceiling)
-we get Tenn, Ole Miss, and LSU at home (not that that means much under Sumlin)
My beef with saying 8 wins is ok is this is the EXACT kind of year we should be getting ten wins. Next year seven or eight is fine, but this year we need to hit a peak to prove to this fanbase Sumlin can do it without Johnny.
I believe there are a few coaches in the game who would win ten games with this team. If Sumlin isn't one of them because he mismanages our advantages he is done for even if we don't fire him.

Yep. Except that I would say it isn't "prove to the fanbase" but "prove to recruits". It's a game of Larrys and Joes and we are getting beat down on that front because the kids we are selling ourselves to ALSO think that Sumlin only looked good because of Johnny.
