Did Utah think they had a chance at multiple undefeated seasons and Top Bowl games in the 90's? You strive for the better. Not just say. "Meh, we are who we are."
I'm pretty sure Boise as a Non d1 school in the 90's didn't think they'd have the success that they have had as a young program. But they strove for it. And both those programs got it.
We need to strive for it too.
If we strive for it, the answer is yes, maybe one day we will make the playoff.
But right now we need to strive for firm footing to begin that quest.
Keep reading and you might catch the point.
Don't need to. You were the second post on here. Your post is the initial thought process.
You rarely are interested in comprehension. Keep reading and you can catch up if you like otherwise please continue with totally irrelevant posts.
Well, I just got off and was finally able to read the whole thing... My post still stands. The only other topic is splitting p5/G5...
So back to it. We need to gain a firm footing and strive for relevance...
Recruiting these days is dirty and broken. The commiting and decomitting, the trying to steal a recruit once he's committed. It's all BULL.
One we don't teach these guys what a true commitment is. And that stands for commitment in anything in life. Back in the day, you made a commitment and stuck with it through the the recruiting process aswell as your school career. Now we worry about transfers and decommitments. All we teach is that their word means poop. And once in the real world you have to deal with these people who are wishy washy and their word means poop. No G5 program will survive, just based on what I wrote above. Players will leave G5 for P5 if they come calling for them during recruiting, even if he gave his commitment to another program, now leaving that program which had him locked from the start, reeling in the end. Our transfers...
Whenever we have a good player, they see they are good enough and transfer to another P5 school, leaving us reeling for talent, and depth. It's something that really needs to be looked at.
