Actually, Robinson took a wrecking ball to the program.

It's funny, when he was fired, the general consensus was that it would take 4-5 years to rebuild. Then somehow we win 8 games in year 2. This year many people were predicting that we'd take a step back. I wasn't one of them, I thought we would build on what we did last year.

It's messed up that people don't remember how bad we were under Robinson. Robinson gave up 40+ points to Akron. Lost to Miami of Ohio. 3 Big East wins in 4 years. A 10 minute ESPN segment about how bad Syracuse was. We were the worst team in division 1 and I remember thinking how great it would be to get to mediocre, where we thought we could win instead of wondering how much we would lose by.

I'm not going to begrudge anyone for being miserable, because this sucks. I'm so glad we have a bye week so I don't have to deal with football for two weeks. I just think people would feel a little better if they put some things in perspective.
