[QUOTE="RhoChi, post: 838079, member: 5096"] I will admit. As much as this season has sucked. And the past two as well. I see some progress all around. We have glimmers of promise in every game. Our Offense is getting more yards per game. Our defense is slowly coming together and making big turnovers and causing “chaos”. Our special teams can now hit Field Goals. We have so much potential, and it shows. But it’s an idea of refinement. A hunk of iron ore is worth very little. But if you smelt it, cut it up, and turn it into watch springs, that small hunk of ore becomes quite literally infinitely more valuable than its original form. But a lot of people dont wanna put in effort to refine it. They see the value of the spring and expect it from the ores. In the same way, a lot of our fans see the 4 stars and High recruiting classes and expect to be 9-3 10-2 out of the gate. While I admit I was even expecting more out of the team than this and am very disappointed, you can’t say they aren’t getting better day by day. I have learned 2 things as a Tech student. 1. Nothing comes easy And 2. It makes accomplishing things that much better. Even football and other sports included. If you look at all of our sports. No team has ever been good every year they played. Every team has to suck. But I hope one day we can look back when our players are winning national awards and getting drafted and we can say “remember when they weren’t this good? I’m so happy of their progress and where they’ve gone”. Life is lived with ups and downs. It’s what makes it enjoyable. [/QUOTE]
