Umm.... not sure what I predicted for 2021.... Ive made several posts that outlined a linear progression of wins with a 2 steps forward 1 step back approach. But they were a generic outline of the progression, not so much a year to year prediction..  Maybe theres a post where I make one, but it probably wasnt more then 8 wins.  I mean, look at how close we was to 9 wins, if it wasnt for just a few boneheaded plays by Doege or James fumbling vs TTU...  So its not like we were blown out in the games we did lose, most was down to the wire and was execution based losses(Jimmies & Joes)IN all my posts Ive thought year 5 will be a big year with some progress being shown in year 4. I think we hit 8 maybe....maybe 9 wins this year.  Of course thats assuming JTD shows us why he was a 5 star QB and if he remains healthy, and if our DBs are up to par...  But..... to be specific for future criticisms Ill say 8 win season this year.  Which I think is enough to show us there is a 10+ win roster in Morgantown once we are starting mostly Juniors & Seniors on the field(which should be next year)...  I mean, Nehlen only won 6 games the year before he took us to the National Championship, so its possible to make a big stride in a single year, esp now with the portal if its effectively utilized(nil)...Ultimately there are a crapload of questions about this team(QB, DB, OL), but I do think we are a lock to win more then 5 games.  Which is easy money...  Im betting $10K we win more then 5.5 games.  I never bet on sports, NEVER, because my career is built upon exploiting probabilities, so I get enough of that with my day job, but I do think Brown is a quality coach, with a good staff, and has enough talent & experience to win > 5 games which puts a nice Christmas bonus in my pocket.Enough for High Performance Downpipes, Eventuri or ArmaSpeed Intake, Performance Exhaust, & Custom tune for my new G80 M3 Competition...  Which should put me at about 700 WHP with E30-E50 blends. Thats good enough for 10.0 - 10.2 in the 1/4mile..Thats one hellava win/win....  haha.... Ill get the performance mods anyways, but it would be nice if they would be free...I believe building a program from scratch takes much longer then people are willing to wait.  Which is why you see many programs stuck in the 5-7 wins club because they fire staffs every 2-3 years.  Starting point also matters and Brown's starting point was about as bad as it could be at WVU from both a talent & experience perspective.  For a development program like WVU is simply takes longer because those yearly recruits need a few years before they become high impact caliber players(for the most part).Ultimately I have faith that Brown can take us to reach our realistic ceiling as a program. BUT.... its not going to happen until the starting 22 are mostly Seniors & Juniors.  Which should be next year... and hopefully the start of an era and brand of WVU football that will be revered in years to come, similar to how the 05-11 years are thought of..  We have a few years when we seriously compete on a national level, and a couple of down years but still win our bowl games vs quality opponents.</blockquote>
