Message: [QUOTE="swish7, post: 1181646, member: 486"] I don't like to waste bits and bytes on solutions that are things that we know our athletic department cannot and will not do, and may not even solve the problem. Assuming it is true that we are not already spending the big bucks (on salaries that are, what?, 4 times what P made, and indoor practice facilities), I think it is fairly certain that we cannot and will not spend more big bucks. What problem will more money solve? We need a plethora of great players. We need genius coaches, the kind that can do more with less. Will more money net a genius coach? Who knows? As we've all come to know all too well, the board standard is 3 years before you can even evaluate a coach. There is some serious good stuff happening out there on the field. Problem is, it is of the great, but 'almost' variety. We finally a QB with some Johnny B Good sense of the game, but he's just a smidge too short. And we have a receiver that catches a slot pass on the move, and gets past a defender whom took a bad angle, buutt, he doesn't have the speed to turn it into a TD. We 've a decent RB, whom unfortunately cannot beat DEs to the edge. We've someone whom seems like they can be all world, in Broyld, whom ends up looking a little pedestrian on gameday. We get to the redzone, and seemingly everytime, the same lineman gets called for a hold. Just need to keep working hard and try to out-recruit and out-play teams. We need to fix the problems, before they become apparent. The likes of McNabb, Freeney, Darius, Harrison, Johnston, and Bullock, etc, are not walking through that door. MacPherson, and P had some great assistants. The program was loaded. Need to get back there, seemingly the hard way. Nobody is going to hand a 10 win season to us, and money won't buy it. [/QUOTE]
