It's like flipping a coin: not matter how many times you do it, it's still going to be 50-50. We keep changing coaches and none of them has been handled a fully rebuilt program, (since Pasqualoni, anyway), and it's obvious we slipped backwards under Shafer, so, yes, we are rebuilding again. It's very frustrating but there it is.

We are playing our most difficult schedule ever, with each team either being a national power or a team that is farther along in the rebuilding process because they started it earlier than Babers did.

We've had more than our share of significant injuries and they've been focused on two vitally important units: the offensive line and the defensive backfield.

We've played three road games and one was on a windy day and another at the edge of a hurricane. Those things impact passing teams more than running teams. Last night's game was disappointing  but it was a battle between a team that passes better than it runs and a team that runs better than it passes in a  rainstorm.

there are some legitimate criticisms  that go beyond this, (strange play-calling, a lack of variety in running pays, why is Fredericks a spectator, etc.), but I don't think we can really evaluate the progress of this team or the program under the above circumstances.
