[QUOTE="TruWVblu, post: 129416345, member: 1797404"] The apathy and accepted mediocrity that is setting in with our program is troubling to me. I love that we beat Texas Tech and Texas but the fact is, that is simply not an accomplishment worthy of a contract extension at this point. Iowa State beat Texas and beat them badly. I personally am not sure if Holgorsen should remain our head coach or not. I do not like a lot of what I have seen but saying a man should lose his job is a really big deal to me. But it seems to me that many would be happy with the same results over the next three years that we have had over the past three years. I hear people making all sorts of excuses for Holgorsen in an attempt to call him successful. Just two weeks ago I heard many, in response to people saying he should be fired, say that we should wait until the end of the season to see how things went. Now, all of a sudden, those same people are willing to give him an extension without waiting it out to see how things go. This seems very hypocritical to me. Is it wrong to expect just a little more from our program? [/QUOTE]
