Seriously, today sucked... we all know that Syracuse got RUN, and we need to field a competitive team.  However, the calling for Shafer and others to be replaced already seems a little premature.  I want to ask, what are legitimate realistic expectations for the team this season?  Having realistic expectations, with all things weighed, can make a huge difference for the fan base when it is all said and done.  Did anyone think we were going to knock out 8 or 9 wins this year?  I hope not.  What happens if we finish 7-5 this year, instead of being caught up in the moment like today, would that be a success?  I think it would be.  I think even 6-6 is a fair and realistic goal, which is certainly attainable for the team.  We talk as if Marrone & Co. was some golden era or something... we had 5 losses last year, and had two last second wins at South Freaking Florida and Mizzou.  I know the frustration may be more about the way we have played and lost this year, but in the end it's all about wins and losses, right?  Let's see what happens first.
