Fans were SPOILED for 40 years or whatever number you want to give the success of the program.  I understand the need for change, but I would never root against the school, or the coach, or a player.  Chris Bell and Quadir Copeland will never get the vile booing that JG3, a four year student athlete alumni received when he came back, but Chris Bell, especially, had his share of detractors.

For fans who root for the program not to be successful, are not fans.  Call yourself what you want, but a real fan would never root against their team, ever.  Wildhack knows the deal.  He understands the dollars and cents. He knows the program needs to go in a different direction.   And he will make the decision when the time comes.

I'm a NY Giants fan.  Don't you think I want the 1st pick in the draft and Joe Schoen replaced.  Of course I do, but what happens tomorrow against the Raiders will happen. Hopefully,  they don't put Jaxson Dart at risk.

I'm also a fan of the Utah Jazz.  They will have a pretty good 1st round pick this year, but if it's not top 8, it gets conveyed to one of the best teams in the league, OKC.  Yesterday, they beat Detroit at the buzzer, the team with the best record in the East and with every victory, they jeopardize losing that 1st round pick.

I'm never going to root for the Giants, or Utah, and Syracuse not to be successful.   I want all three to do well and set themselves up for success.   I understand you need to sometimes to take steps backwards before you take a giant step forward.  But in Syracuse's case, you can still have success and changes can still be made.
