I didn not say that we had facilities that were comperable to our competitors. I said that we were going through a normal upgrade in facilities as we have done since the Dome was built, accellerated in need by what other schools were doing, so we would nbot be at a disavantge in the future. My position was that the facilities were not to blame for losses to Rutgers and Temple and for losing games by scores like 0-49, 0-43, -62, 0-59, 0-51, etc. And I blamed the decline in the program on such nationally televised disasters. Why would good players want to come here after seeing those performances? Your position was those were "mole hills" were making too much of and that the real reason for the decline was the decline in our facilities. But that's another arugment altogether.
 
The why can't we play like BYU argument: basically, why can we have a "system" like some teams have that produces big numbers, when just the way I described it. You went from arguing that we'd had a lot of fine quarterbacks and receivers so we must not have underused the Dome to arguing that we didn't have the talent to have a high powered passing attack. You changed- and contradicted- your own argument so you wouldn't have to change your position and that's an example of what he was talking about.
