My wife was perplexed that Les Miles was fired from LSU. We looked up his record and he hasn't won less than 8 games since 2002, has gone to a bowl game each year since 2002, and has taken his team to 2 national championships, winning one, since 2002. 14 winning seasons in the last 14 years. "Why the HELL was he fired?" she asked. "UNT would be all OVER that dude, right?" she asked. Yes, dear, we would. We've only had 4 winning seasons and 4 bowl games in the last 14 years. "Oh to be mediocre", I said. "Mediocre?" She asked. What makes you think 4-10 in the last 14 years is mediocre?" ...she has a good point.
I mention all this to say I hope that Smatz and TheWren will FINALLY change the mindset of "mediocrity" around here. We must do better and I think we will do better. I hope it starts with the MUTS game on Saturday. Seth has this team grinding it out. Let's #hit3 with a win.
