Now you get your shot to turn around a long suffering program with your hire. Choose wisely as so many others have NOT done before you.

Nobody can say the fans have not been loyal and patient. Now they deserve better.

This isn't being self-congratulatory: our overall fanbase and fan support really is great. Obviously is a combination of geography, lack of professional sports, and previous history of success - but it is pretty amazing that many of us have hung around.

Hopefully the next potential coaches will place value on that. I know the players value it. I think Frost values it. Unfortunately, he just can't coach it seems.

The fan support is remarkable. When a program is that bad for that long, fans stop coming to games. Heck, we can't win a road game to save our lives but fans went all the way to Ireland.

But in some ways, our fan support is also a curse. Year after year, our players get this false sense of importance and confidence from being in a big time program and when the pressure is on or plays don't go our way, they fold.
