[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 590647, member: 1191"] In fairness, it would be difficult for the D NOT to improve. That being said, CGC does have a track record of defensive success, so if we can make significant gains 6-6 is possible. The biggest issue to me is that this is scheme change 3 in 3 years. It would be a fairly significant development if our offense merely stayed the same, much less improved. GT almost always fielded a top 20 offense in terms of efficiency, so again, expect a significant backwards step here. I know we have talented QBS, but the fact remains that none had P5 offers other than GT at QB. We will be running the same offense as competing schools with QBs they determined weren't best suited for running this offense. (Exception being Yates, who though he had no other P5 offers, ended up as a 4* Dual Threat QB) The article posted in this thread is a great example. Nebraska recruits well and had great athletes on the roster when Frost took over. They have historically been a top 25 recruiting team, and their lowest recent years were ranked 31st and 32nd. Even with top athletes, scheme changes are hard. Frost went 4-8 with better rated athletes against a much easier schedule than we will face next year. I just think that there is a significant reason all these experts keep predicting 3-4 wins, and setting an arbitrary bar at .500 ball as a baseline flies in the face of facts and logic. [/QUOTE]
