Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 5263190, member: 5685"] With the current roster we are lucky to get 6 Ws next year. We are adding four teams that on paper are better than anyone we played this year. We still have our two best teams from this year but on the road. Plus we still have two more teams that beat us but at home. Going 5-7 would be a decent job next year. I do think there is some benefit to playing a bunch of young players next year to help mold them for the future. But that run would likely be 2027 not 2026. Also there is the Nixon factor. We might have been a 7-5 team this year without him. Will he still be around in 2026 or 2027? If he goes that resets everything. Not knowing which players or coaches stay, it is hard to plan long term. Gotta play for today. Also a bad year next year might make it harder to recruit both HS and the portal. We need to keep the momentum. [/QUOTE]
