Thank you, SWC. In your own inimitable way and backed by solid recollection of facts and data, you’ve expressed what I, a so-called “ JB loyalist”... whatever that means, have tried to say.
First and foremost my loyalty is to my alma mater. But, I’ve seen enough over the years with the “torches and pitchforks” segment of our fanbase to know that maintaining perspective is of primary importance.
Why does defending JB over what i consider an over-the-top onslaught, somehow seen as being mutually exclusive from acknowledging that the program has struggled lately? Why can’t the two coexist w/out the absolutist rhetoric from the peanut gallery? Why arent both things seen as true?
I was one of those who clamored for Pasqualoni’s ouster. In retrospect I still stand by that decision, but 15 years of football Siberia have shown me that simply wanting change, doesn’t mean you get the “right ” change.
In any case, JB  will be gone in a few years. And i fully expect that some in our fanbase will begin to fully realize what we’ve enjoyed here all these years. Warts and all.
