I really hate the “Year 6” references. Not that they’re untrue or inaccurate. But things happen sometimes. I really feel that 2016 and 2017 there was a whole new vibe. True the 4-8 records were disappointing. But a couple of big upsets were hopeful. 2018 was great. We overachieved a little. 2019 we underachieved a little, and the OL issues started to surface. 2020 was an abomination but between COVID, social issue distractions and injuries, I don’t put much weight on it. (Not a popular view I know, but I don’t care.)  We would all have loved it if this SU football reclamation project had taken a linear form, but it didn’t. Life is tough all over.

Yes it’s year 6. The defense is playing great. We seem to be addressing the OL issues. We seem to be better at QB than the last two years, even if it’s not perfect. Maybe Lamson is the real deal. Maybe Morgan. Maybe some hit prospect sees an opportunity to play right away here and signs up.

For me, it’s about (1) Do things look like they are improving, and (2) Does the team positively reflect on my alma mater? Relight now, I can say yes to both. Sure I wish we were already back to Top 25 status regularly, but I believe we will get there. Not at the schedule some might want, but eventually.
