Well... let me first say, I'm 1000% behind Marrone, way too early to know if he's a 7 win shelf kind of coach, no matter how depressing 3 of the 4 losses have been this year.

But we need to make sure we win one more before the A Bridge Too Far part of your thesis that's underlined is really accurate. Should we lose these next 3 (I don't think likely but certainly possible), we'd be looking at the following trend in Big East records:

2006: 1-6
2007: 1-6
2008: 1-6
2009: 1-6
2010: 4-3
2011: 1-6

Which one is the anamoly? Regardless of any statistical trends, the biggest highlights of this era would be that the previous regime actually brought in some good athletes that our current coaches could leverage to win us games on D (D. Smith, Hogue, Holmes, Merk, Suter, Tribbey, Chandler, Marinovich) and we're better at beating MAC teams (with 1 scare which we caught a break).

If we lose out, it will get noisier, so this needs to end Friday with a win. That should stop the madness.
