I think it's very hard to assess how much damage the last 10 years has done to the program.

I'm a die hard, and every time some little things go wrong, my only thought is 'here we go again.'

If the bball team played a game like that one, or the football team had played that game 10 years ago, it would have killed me to watch it.  But at this point, even as a die hard, I'm numbed to the bad things that happen.  I'm just happy we won on Saturday.

Getting the town back will take time.  Probably a long time.  The only way to speed it up is to pull another win like the Nebraska one in '84.  Honestly, our schedule doesn't afford a lot of those opp.  Winning at USC would probably do more for our image than going 7-0 in the BE this year.

We've gotta face facts.  The SU brand was damn near dead and buried over the last 10 years.  Without an exciting style of play, or without snagging a really big statement victory, this thing will take a long time to come back around.
