There are quite a few programs that had to overcome an extensive track record of futility prior to becoming relevant.  A perfect case in point is Kansas State.

When Snyder took over in the late 1980's they had a then (possibly still) NCAA record of 27 consecutive games without a win.

In 1998, when they reached #1 in the rankings for the first time (didn't last) they had more winless seasons in their history than winning seasons (and that included three straight winning seasons leading up to 1998).

The past dozen years have been unacceptable.  Nobody is stating anything different.  Anything that occurred prior to when we hired Skip can be thrown out as that was the first move we ever made that could be classified as being in an effort to field a  competitive football program at a high level nationally.

I've been to games at the Rent that were absolutely big time football played in a big time atmosphere.  We can get there again.
