nope.....it's all rosy and cant possibly get better
the door is wide open......the fact our players get no better matter little
Good. just wanted to make sure!!!!
But seriously, I think we'll be fine in the long run. We're young and we made some really dumb mistakes on offense tonight, no doubt about it. But if you don't think the chance to be significantly better next year is there, then I guess it is time to pack it in.
We're adding some pieces that will not only add a bit more to the equation in terms of strength and athleticism, these are also guys that will help make the other guys better in the long run because they will present various matchup problems for opponents. Granted, its hard to foresee how that will all work out. But if the guys continue to improve over the course of another summer, hit the weights hard and then you factor in Mbakwe, White, Williams and Cobbs, we'll have a pretty darn good makeup heading into next year.
The biggest problem that we've had in my opinion is that our rotation has been kind of funky and it's messed with the players' rhythms a little bit. Need to find a strong, nine-man rotation and stick with it. But, that's just my opinion. There are other problems also, but if there's one thing that has become painfully (at least, at times!!!

) apparent, it's where our individual players have deficiencies. This being the case, they'll most likely know what to work on during the offseason and in training, which will also help.
Don't fret too much. We're right on schedule as far as I can see (20-8, 8-8). Next year, we can expect a little more. But this is a learning year for A LOT of our guys. Come this time next season, the problems we're having now shouldn't be as big of an issue. If they are, then we'll have something more serious to talk about. For now however, we just need to let the overall process run its course.
Hope this helps somewhat!!!!
