No, No. Can't bring up rational things that are glaring.

Take away his 2 FCS Texas (ACU and SFA) wins and in two seasons Morris is now 0-5 against in-state FBS teams.  So much for those Texas ties everyone seems to want to put as the number 1 priority in hiring a head football coach.  

He's 6-10 (.375) against conference opponents...those teams we are suppose to be able to compete against.  He was lucky in that 4 of those 6 wins came against Temple and Tulsa who went a combined 13-35 (.270) in the last two seasons. 

Seriously, given his performance here (and elsewhere for that matter) what exactly gives everyone so much hope that he's the guy to take us to the next level?

I think there are legitimate concerns, and legitimate reasons for optimism.

As far as I know there is no Athletic board or council. There use to be with RV, I know I was on it!

Morris needs at least an 8-4 season next year! Look at our schedule for 2025 its tough!

Wow you are damning him and his supporters with real data.  📈

agreed, especially with the new portal additions. 
 

But, surely, this is his make or break year.

So more uncertainty. Uncertainty for a coach going on his 3rd year. This is kind of the problem.

He brought it on himself.  This coming season will determine if Elf will either become a great head coach or a lifetime offensive coordinator/QB coach.

Agree. A poor showing next year and he should get the boot.

Yup 100%.  He needs a big breakthough season or he is done.  Jarod isn't going to risk his own neck and will want to get another hire that will buy him time.

Can you at least clarify?  I could point a scope at nearly any staff in the country, no matter where they are in tenure, and find some amount of uncertainty.
