[QUOTE="jacketup, post: 770892, member: 630"] Drawing lines in the sand about the staff based on number of wins next year is for casual fans who don't understand the complexities of P5 football. There are just too many variables to make wins the measurement, especially given where this program was in January of 2019. Wins is not the way to measure progress given where we are. A few things that can make a difference: Injuries, for a team without much depth; Officiating, we saw 4 poorly officiated games this year we got the worst of; a bad break that turns a game around. I want to see better pass blocking, fewer turnovers, tougher receivers, a better pass rush, faster linebackers, better DT depth, better place kicking. If we get reasonable improvement in those areas--and we are capable--I'll be happy. But again, injuries in particular--and we seem to have had an unusual number the last two years--can impact progress in those items. People seem to forget (or have an agenda) that we were 11-3 in 2014 and 3-9 in 2015 with the same coaching staff. For some reason we got all the breaks in 2014 and seemingly only one (FSU) in 2015. Was the coaching 8 games worse in 2015? Some people in this thread would suggest that to be the case. [/QUOTE]
