The dynamics of the portal changed dramatically this past off season. That is the number 1 reason for what we are seeing right now. Number 2 is that you could not have hand picked a weaker slate of opponents.

It is equally true that Randy would not have jumped in with both feet like Mora did and had lost the program, regardless.

As for the injuries, I was never convinced that we had a ton of separation on the depth chart but Mora's biggest success is going 4 and 5 deep into the bench while still beating crappy teams we would have easily lost to in recent years at full strength.

Beat UMass, give Army a run and he could declare victory, even though he won't happy unless we are bowl eligible. Which is what we want to see from the coach. No moral victories.

Disagree. The number one reason is the buy in from the players. Without that there is very little reason to believe that this season would be much different than last.
