[QUOTE="BZuppke, post: 1346273, member: 12358"] I think we are on the right course and need to stay the course next year regardless of the number of wins. I disagreed with those in the past who said we should stay the course because we would not be able to attract a better coach. That was not the case regarding Beckman, Zook or Turner. That is the case now. We have a great and highly respected coaching staff and the question ‘who will you get better’ is absolutely valid. Have faith. These guys are building the program and we will see the results. I for one am not writing off 2018. We will be pleasantly surprised because our sophomores next year will play like juniors and seniors due to the experience they’re getting this year. We’re not that far off if you’re watching the games. We’re getting beat by teams like Purdue not because they are more talented or better coached but because they have more experience. One play comes to mind where they ran for a good gain simply because our freshmen were completely out of position to make the tackle and our dB had to make the play. They won’t make those mistakes next year. [/QUOTE]
