Really Space, who cares anymore. This team continues to disappoint year after year. ~.500ish record playing some of the easiest schedules in the country, terrible bowl record, inability to show up in the big games, etc., etc., etc. Even when we are picked to finish 1st in the conference we end up with just another ordinary year with ordinary outcomes.
It's the same story, different year, going on a decade now. Still no championships, still no domination, still no top 25 rankings. Just a stagnant, middle of the road program that occasionally wins games it shouldn't and follows them up by losing games they had no business losing. Just balances out to average in the end. Maybe that should be our new name. Average State University, because we've literally set the mark for the most average program in history.
I said it 10 years ago when McCollum was coach and I'll say it again. Mediocrity kills a program and cannot be accepted. There must be accountability and there must be at least an effort made to reach the top. Mediocrity is the worst thing for a program because it results in a stalemate. Coaches are never hired away because nobody wants them, and AD's are too scared to fire them because if the next coach doesn't do better then they lose their own job. Massaro probably enjoys the paychecks he is cashing and doesn't want to move any time soon, and there isn't enough uproar to force his hand, so why risk his job security?
The only thing we can do at this point is hit them where it hurts, and that's in the check book. Stop giving and stop going, period. I did this long ago but I know it's harder for some than others but you've got to realize it's the only way to truly force change.
