That was the point of his post. You clearly missed it.

And you missed the point of MY post. I don't give a shite about how many coaches are on the payroll. When he says "A 9-3 season is seen as a success", it needs to be put in context. Was it seen as a success before the season started? No. Was it seen as a success after falling to 3-2. I believe it should be - especially considering the amount of young player that we relied on.

Do you think LSU, FSU, Florida, UCF and Miami would have considered 9-3 a successful season in August. I'll bet you UCF and Miami would have say YES and LSU, UF and FSU would say NO. Ask the same question to all 5 programs on Week 7 when Miami and UCF are 4-0, FSU drops to 1-3 and LSU beats Florida to go 4-2 and drops the Gators to 3-2. A this point the 2 teams that probably considered 9-3 a success 5 weeks earlier would be disappointed with a 9-3 finish while UF, FSU and LSU would be happy with it.
