[QUOTE="Techster, post: 855501, member: 360"] The reason I always point out that every coach since Bobby Ross (it's actually further back if you do the research) has won at least 6 games (bowl eligibility) by their 3rd season (outside of Bill Lewis, but he at least won 5 games his first 2 years) is because it shows it does NOT take 5-7 years to "turn things around". Curry and Ross had a MUCH more difficult job than Collins. On top of that, Collins has the transfer portal to get experienced OLs and DLs. None of our previous coaches had that option. Saying it takes 5-7 years also flies in the face of the fact that NO offensive lineman or defensive lineman gets to play for 5-7 years. This is college football, not professional football. By year 3, coaches know whether or not a player will be a contributor. Look at our starting OL this season: Devin Cochran -RSr Kenny Cooper - RSr Ryan Johnson - RSr Mike Minihan - RJr Jordan Williams - Fr (2nd year) Outside of Jordan Williams, you have 3 guys who have been in college for 5 years, 1 guy who was in college for 4 years, and a freshman that's been in college for 2 years. You don't get much more experienced than that. Cochran, Williams, and Johnson were recruited specifically for our offense, while Cooper and Minihan couldn't be beaten out by CGC's recruits, which means they were good enough to play at the ACC level, or CGC isn't recruiting as well in the portal and from HS ranks as he should. The DL and DE, though not as experienced as the OL, also had multiple guys who've been in college for 3+ seasons. We had the 5th most talented roster in the ACC. Not just the Coastal, but ALL of the ACC according to 247. We definitely did not finish 5th overall in the ACC. IMO, that's a coaching issue, not a talent issue. [/QUOTE]
