Okay, Followers. Now, that we’ve all our had our chance to talk about (a) Why Wulff should be fired; (b) Why Wulff should be retained; (c) Why we here at the blog should go bleep ourselves for supporting Wulff, its time…….
TO STEP WAY, WAY BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mind you, not only will we have due time to dissect the future of Wulff and the program in the days and weeks to come, we will.
WE ALL WILL.
In the meantime, I respectfully ask that every one of you take a deep breath and examine the following FACTS.
1). There are three games left in this season. And, however unlikely, this team could still very well go 6-6 or 5-7. So, lets not burn the house down until the assessors have finished their job.
2) Save a game against the #2 team in the country, this young football team has played NO CONFERENCE GAMES AT HOME this year. So, if you take at face value that this team is 2-1 at home this year, then give this group two more games to prove itself against two Bowl teams in Utah and Arizona State.
3) THERE WAS ONE PERSON ON THIS SITE WHO SAID THAT WE WOULD WIN MORE THAN SEVEN GAMES. In fact, most of us were stuck in the 5 to 6 win camp. AND, all those predictions came with the assumption that our best players and leader was going to play every game. Obviously, that didn’t quite happen this year.
Oh yeah, and if you don’t think that matters. How about the Colts record to date without this guy:
Moreover, if the one player who you needed to NOTget hurt got hurt, what would you do?
Answer: (a) You’d go to the guy with the most experience.
And if your replacement/back-up initially played very well in spite of his limitations, what would you do?
Answer (a) You’d stick with him.
And what if he seemed a bit shaky as you headed down the home stretch once he started to face tougher defenses, would you change course with your job on the line?
Would you turn to a guy with no experience?
Answer: PROBABLY NOT.
Again, you can trust that there will be a BUNCH of criticism that we will levy toward Wulff and his coaches in the days and weeks to come.
But in the meantime, please remember that these kids have now played SIX conference road games (and yes, when you take a 6 hour bus trip to a home game, it counts as an away game) in the past seven weeks.
Can we at least grant them and the coaches the courtesy of seeing what they will do after a “full” (meaning three) slate of conference home games, and then judge them with a full slate of evidence?
All for now. Go Cougs.
