there is a bundle of assumptions not just in your post but generally within our little community.

let's start with this

dreadful performance for sure; fair enough to call them mediocre [I]programs[/I], but it remains to be seen whether this year's editions are mediocre [I]teams[/I].  current results indicate otherwise, but it is very early.  still, i wouldn't assume okst & psu are going to end up being mediocre squads this year

the other big assumption is that this year's syracuse team - 8 freshman & sophs, no seniors, only a single returning starter, yada yada yada - will perform all season as it has in november.  current results do not engender hope, but again:  it is very early

finally:  nothing will change until there is a coaching change.  huge assumption.  i think there is a lot of talent on the roster.  past performance indicates that jb knows how to grow that talent into a winning team.  maybe later this season, maybe next, maybe buddy's senior & his final season.  unless you think the skill & knowledge that has allowed jb to win 70% of his games in the last 4* ncaa tournaments has suddenly & completely disappeared, i think this assumption is on the shakiest ground

hey, it's only my $0.02, and what do i know, i'm just a dead ender
