I await my "improved mentality" with baited breath.



But am totally prepared for disappointment.

Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Benedict is very good on the business side and we need that. Warde was great with players and coaches but not real strong on the business side.

"Offensive ineptness and only 15 wins from 2011 through 2014 created a severe case of fan apathy and anger toward then-coach Paul Pasqualoni."

L O L.

"Baylor’s new McLane Stadium is the smallest in the Big 12 at 45,000 but has already created a winning environment for the Bears."

But? We're 2-0 against the Bears. Bears won't be what they were under Briles.

Instead of improving my mentality....................
Please concentrate on your job and get this program into a conference it deserves which will make recruitment easier and football better
The improvement has to come from within - fix the Hathaway mess
I have nothing against the new AD - but don't need his help with my mentality towards the program - I bleed Husky Blue and want what is best for the Husky nation
I know he wants the same, so lets get to it

Kinda smells to me like they are building the latest excuse for another P5 pass over.

He's not wrong about our fan base, but we can go chicken and egg on the cause/result for that and it serves no one any purpose.

1. Win games
2. Play a better schedule (see P5, CR)
3. Rally the students around football events. The rest of the fan base will follow.

My attitude will be just fine.

I have a good feeling about football attendance this year. I think the Houston game opened a lot of people's eyes, plus we're returning so many key guys at skill positions. Add in the Big 12 rumblings and I think football will be a lot of fun this year.

It's boom or bust depending on the Big 12 situation.

A few tall glasses of good bourbon on game days will improve my mentality.
Just game days?

Why do you say that?

Because you opted for Bourbon in your post instead of Port.

If you are going to talk the talk, walk the walk. OK? Kewl.

Good catch! I see you know the Sandeman. Well the Avatar and handle are because I was a Naval Flight Officer out of VQ-2 in Rota Spain. Our squadron patch was actually the same logo as the Sandeman Bodega, which was right down the street from Rota where we were stationed. Im not going lie and say I like Sandeman Port....it's pretty gross. But I need to stay true to my VQ-2 roots. Best time of my life. I'll take bourbon over port any day!
