L4L relax....it's simply CONFIRMATION BIAS:
'a tendency to search for or interpret information in a way that confirms one's preconceptions, leading to statistical errors' (247 is now more accurate than rivals)
'confirmation biases contribute to overconfidence in personal beliefs (Stallion) and can maintain or strengthen beliefs in the face of contrary evidence'
Morris and staff are doing a great job (especially compared to June & post DP regimes). You, I, everyone one this board, and everyone in Texas agree with that wholeheartedly. It's just easier to attack other points of view, rather than admit we'll end up middle of the pack nationally, and 4th or 5th in our own conference.
Even a close 3rd/4th/5th should be enough to keep us competitive at the top of the conference because of Morris' scheme and history of winning. I think coaching alone, will keep us ahead of Cincy & USF, and on even ground with UCF. Houston is going to be the problem, but that should keep the staff working overtime to figure out ways to keep up.
