Same here.

Look, guys. His first year was a wash. Second year exceeded expectations and probably set the bar too high. Year 3 has been a struggle. We probably surprised a lot of teams last year and this year teams are more prepared (and also looking to stick it to us, being that we're leaving for the ACC).

In year 4 we get to see what adjustments Marrone makes. Will ST be addressed? Will the offense be tweaked? Hackett? How does recruiting look? Etc, etc.

We're a small private school in frigid upstate NY. It will take a special coach to bring in wins. It's very unlikely we get a kickass coach...and get him to stick around. We need Marrone to be a Beamer type of coach. I'd be very okay with that. We're going to the ACC. BC is down. Rutgers isn't ACC (yet). UConn isn't ACC (yet). I don't see that changing at least until ND's TV contract is up (2014, I believe). And then we have the PSU scandal, which I hate to say, will be beneficial to us.

Everyone needs to just relax and support the team. Marrone is NOT going to be FIRED. No matter what anyone here says. Hope for one more win, a bowl, and see how next year goes.
