re: What is the "worst" case scenario?

One thing I love about Pelini is his temper, his fire. Like Saban, Muschamp.

FLA could have scored 30 on us if they wanted to.

1. they wanted to.

2. score at half 3-3.

3. Scores in second half

a TD by offensive holding and pulling uni of defender
a field goal after the fumble, which was not called correctly.

Final score at regulation 3-3 without the two errors by referees.

And you can bet they were trying to score 30.

Right Carrol, Brown, Stoops, Meyer, Paterno, Tressel, Bowden?

The difference is not the personality type. The Woodens of the world KNOW all the details. They also are very disciplined and do not put up with any BS from their players. They know how to game plan
Miles lacks on the details, planning and game management. He is also runs a more loose "players" environment. And that comment comes from 2 of his former players.

Therein lies the dilemma we currently face. Obviously, everyone would rather have a great team year-in year-out rather than merely a good/decent team year-in year-out.

But, would you give up the slam dunk good/decent team (with upside potential) if the risk is potentially ending up worse off than before?

All that said, I believe we have many (if not all of) the pieces in place to have great teams in 2010 and 2011 which makes the current conversation irrelevant, but it certainly could become very relevant depending upon how the next two years play out. We shall see...
