I love the idiots who talk about how we are unrealistically expecting 9-10 wins a year...
NO, but do I expect more than 7 wins this year? Yes. Look at the damn schedule. It was pathetically easy and we managed to lose to ISU and Minnesota. We almost lost to other easy teams as well. It is ridiculous. 9 wins was certainly doable this year and we got 7.
I don't expect 9 wins every season, but when we have a schedule like this year... You are damn right I am going to expect 9 wins, because it should be doable.
This is another year where we underachieved. I have tried to defend Ferentz and stand by him the whole way, but I don't know if I can anymore. We lose because of poor preparation, no emotion, no risks, no offensive gameplan, terrible clock management, etc. Our coaches do next to nothing to help our team win games.
If you want to sit here and defend Ferentz because of what he did in the past... good for you, but if you hadn't noticed... you can't live in the past or you get left behind.
I hope Ferentz can turn things around in a hurry, but I think most people would agree... We aren't heading in the right direction.
Obviously this is my opinion and I realize not everyone will agree, but I'm getting tired of the people who defend ferentz no matter what he does and acts like nothing is his fault. I'm NOT ok with being AVERAGE.
