Message: [QUOTE="Orangezoo, post: 4772208, member: 237"] Lots of questions to answer for sure. Year 1 is a spaghetti chart of possible outcomes. We are in a tough spot because of the year end results going in as well as spending a lot of reputational capital building up this year's team more from a talent level perspective. A faceplant could unfortunately make this staffs job 10x harder in years 2 and 3. We don't have a counter to the first time head coach variable and the track record out there. We do have a schedule full of teams with as much if not more new additions to bring together or coming off injuries( Tenn). Gtown has an experienced coach but almost a completely new team, LSU is a new team, Gonzaga is a much different team etc. Colgate lost their best player now for the second straight year. Oregon doesn't come in stacked by any means either. We shall see how things play out and hopefully not worse case scenario. [/QUOTE]
