I promise I'm not trolling. That is my prediction. We will most likely get beaten badly in a non-competitive game against Michigan next week. We will then have a high chance of beating 3-7 Nebraska, a terrible Army team and a third consecutive team out of bowl contention: Maryland. At that point a few of the same people will be optimistic and claim the season a success because we went bowling and beat a name team and JH will have a decision to make.
I'm not going to get too deep into the actual program but IMO nothing with this program will change under this staff (there is 3.5 years of data). We will beat the piss poor teams on our schedule, look non-competitive against any legit top 35 team and recruit NJ very poorly. It's been that way since 2012 (save for the occasional outlier).
If you think of our program like a stock, one reason why people want a new CEO is because future earnings are not projecting upwards at all (recruiting classes) and our current products are flopping (current starters). Basically, 6-6 will be harder to come by (if that's your definition of success). I will be here no matter what but seeing the deterioration of this program hasn't been hard to see if you've monitored other programs development and been objective. I also share other people's feelings in total apathy about RU football (which is dangerous if fanatics on this board feel that way). That being said, I see a hollow 6-6, very similar to 2013.
