I think this post sums it up pretty well for me.

If I had to sum up my feelings in one word it would be: disappointed.

I am disappointed that the things we were told as fans from day one and that impressive basketball half time speech didn't come fully to fruition. Granted, maybe that's mostly my fault for believing a fellow alum who said all the right things and had a binder.

I am disappointed that the job he said he would do, isn't fully done yet. And that we are so close to it.

I am disappointed by the timing of this all.  Back to .500 and coming off a great second half of the season, headed to a new conference guns blazing.  Recruiting plan starting to be realized and tremendous progress seen.

I am disappointed by the way this appears (wonder if we will ever really know) to have been handled.  Recruits being lied to and current players not being talked to in advance.  Succession plan apparently not in place.

One problem is that I'm not sure who to be disappointed in exactly for some of it: school support, DM, fans (though I am generally disappointed with them year round), etc.

I am not disappointed however that an alum and former coach is going to the NFL.

I hope he does SU proud there as he already has here, I am just disappointed by the timing.  I guess to modify one of his quotes that at least for this part of our football history: It Ends Now.

Moving forward I hope TGD is working diligently and the right coach is hired to take us to the next level we are so close to attaining.

Let's Go Orange.  Looking forward to PSU in NYC.
