[QUOTE="RedRocksIllini, post: 1350528, member: 560974"] Absolutely agree that it's fair to be restless. But comparing where we are with Purdue doesn't work for me. Purdue isn't dealing with a nearly 3 year stretch of hampered recruiting (Beckman's last year, Cubit's year and Lovie's first partial year). Smith and Whitman are working on a complete ground-up rebuild. It is going to be painful (and, for all I know, might be unsuccessful.) However, it can be done. Colorado went through almost exactly the same process starting 5 years ago. It was brutal for their fans but was really their only way out. They had a downturn this year but they are much better than they were 5 years ago. I'm all for restless. It's much better than indifferent. [/QUOTE]
