[QUOTE="TruWVblu, post: 129441158, member: 1797404"] It really is just another part of the entitlement, we all got a trophy mentality. They all got trophies growing up and thus did not have to earn them. After a while, this breeds mediocrity. Well, these people are grown up and have learned to accept their participation trophy and be happy with it. I do understand that the competition has gotten perceivably tougher and I also understand that we will not win 10 games every year. But we can look well coached. We can at least expect to be better than mediocre and show some sort of progression. We should be able to expect a coach in his fifth season to have a QB that can make his system work. I am not in favor of firing Holgorsen this season, mainly due to the amount of open positions, but surely even those who support him would have to say he has not earned an extension and that next season should be markedly better for him to get another year. Even though these coaches make a lot of money, I know it is a big deal to fire a man from his job and I believe in giving a coach or anyone the most chances possible to prove himself. I personally hope Holgorsen gets things right and next season turns out like we all should be hoping it does. [/QUOTE]
