re: We are retiring the "we are young" stuff for 2 years at least, right?

you were part of the group that consistently posted that youth is never an excuse and there shouldn't be a reason that this team shouldn't contend.......

nope. i think youth signals recruiting/developmental failures

but i believe that "youth" should never be a perpetual excuse. this year we get to use the card. we are not good this year, and it is expected.

if we have to use it next year b/c we suck, then that's an issue with more than "youth"

for the record i don't care if we lost 6 games this year, as long as we used this year to develop our young players for next year. that's one reason i was so mad at how our coaches fricked up using the ULM game. we wasted 4 crucial quarters of development. harris, adams, beckwith, LF, etc could have used 3 quarters of live play to work out issues to be more prepared to play today. THAT is the stuff i've had issues with this year with the staff
