I'd say he has done enough to come close to officially stabilizing the program, barring a 5-7 or worse year this year.  If that happens he is gone and the uncertainty remains moving forward.

If he gets another bowl this year, next year should be one too based on roster make up and schedule (way too early to tell, I know).

Looking at this year and next year's schedule, they should be 7-8 win seasons.

If that happens he gets us three winning seasons in a row and things for the program are stable and we are showing signs of being consistently respectable (like the programs we view as our peers).

2019 was such a missed opportunity.  And 2021 had so much heartache with some tough close losses (let's be honest, because of Dino).

Had 2021 been a bowl season, we'd probably be considered a low key breakout candidate by the press with the talent returning.

But that's where Dinos faults and warts keep that from being a reality.  He fumbled 2019 and he fumbled 2021.  Had those two years been bowl years, the program and Dinos status are not in doubt.

If he fumbles this year he is done and who knows what the next staff will do and what challenges the program will face moving forward.
