Message: [QUOTE="UpstateSM, post: 4793902, member: 7260"] It's not about the result of the games it's about how we get to that result. We have gotten embarrassed on the national stage three weeks in a row. Similar programs play similar gauntlets without that happening to them. Our offense hasn't had a pulse in the last four games. It did against Purdue but our quarterback had to run the ball TWENTY FIVE times. That isn't a strategy that's just asking a dude who gets hurt every season to play superhero. Other teams lose star players and don't look incompetent on offense. Sure, our luck has sucked injury-wise but it's football. Chit happens. Every home game I look around the dome and get a little sad about the attendance. And that is only going to get worse. You can blame "fans" for not riding the roller coaster but people weren't showing up before we lost to three nationally relevant teams and now there will be even more silver in the dome. We are recruiting as well as we ever have under Dino and that's good for... 12th in the ACC. Miss me with "recruiting continuity," especially when the guys who make inroads doing that recruiting will be poached when programs with more money see those coaches making those moves at a school like Syracuse. I wanted Dino to work so, so bad but I don't know how you can watch the last month of football, going back to Army, and have a single positive thing to say about the outlook of this program. The thought of trying to win the game yesterday never even crossed his mind and that is unacceptable, to me. Dino's teams used to give better teams real fights. He used to take chances. Idk what happened but Dino is not the same Dino and that isn't what any of us signed up for. If we go 4-1 down the stretch and look really, really good doing it my mind could maybe be changed but I just think it is time. Sad and it sucks. [/QUOTE]
