I don't know Coach Stock personally either. My wanting a new coach is based on wanting to see a HC at MT that is upfront and obvious in pursuing excellence and maximum effort for MT football. Like others have said, I don't expect a championship every year. At MT, a championship once every few years is not an unreasonable expectation. MT has the potential and is capable of contending for championships most every year, or at least in the top 3 or 4 in the conference. So, it's not me just wanting a new coach period. If Coach Stock can deliver an outright Conference Championship this year, then great! Let's see if that energy could then be carried over into the next season.
I think that if Coach Stock would win a couple of championships with some big OOC wins fans/public would start to return. It would take more than a few big wins, and it would likely take more than one or even two good seasons. For myself, it will take more than one big win and a couple of ok wins. I am willing to watch and see if MT can sustain some good success for a few more games vs quality conference opponents. If that could happen, then that would go a long way toward convincing me that maybe he can pull off a good season this year. Until actually seeing those results, I'm not convinced based upon a history of almost two decades.
