Does JJ stay with 6 or 7 wins this year?

I voted no. However, I think a lot of people's answers would be quite different based on 6 vs 7 wins. 7 wins in the regular season is what we have done the past 3 years. That is maintaining, which some would be okay with. 6 is regressing, I think far fewer would be in favor of bringing him back then.

I voted yes, but I would like to qualify that with "only if we make it to the CUSA title game".

The only way I would want him to stay is if we won the cusa championship game AND he had a top 25 recruiting class- and we all know that dog won't hunt.

I do think it will come down to 6 or 7 wins.

Best to wait after UTEP game, until the none of us have a clue.

No matter how we play against the frogs, utep will be tough to beat in north mexico.

Really? Top 25 recruiting class? Aren't you're expectations a bit high? According to Rivals there was only 1 BE team in the Top 25 recruiting class for 2012, Rutgers #24. The next, Louisville, #42.

Why bother with the facts when some would rather be unrealistic?

It would not have mattered if I had said top 45 or top 65. We won't be near there. That is the major issue. I care less how many games we win against cusa teams as this is probably the worst this conference has been in the last 6-7 yrs and we should win against this level of teams. The concern is that we are nowhere close to being competitive with BCS teams and will look very foolish next year when we are in the BE.
People say we are not as big, strong and talented as the Baylors and A&Ms. The reason is that our coaches seem to sit on their collective butts and wait for recruits to come to them.
A good comparison of recruiting activity is to compare jj and his staff with LB. Brown has run circles around jj when is comes to recruiting activity. I suspect that in two years our bball program will be light years ahead of fball simply because one coaching staff goes after players and the other waits for tapes to be mailed to them.

I voted yes, 6-7 games

baylor: lose
sfa: win
a&m: lose
tcu: lose
utep: win (going to be tough -- but.. voting win)
tulane: win
houston: win (think we have a good shot at them this year)
memphis: win
ucf: lose
southern miss: win (good shot at them as well)
rice: win
tulsa: lose

June Jones is on his way to Arkansas.

Would never happen as Arkansas fans want a coach who shows passion towards the school.............

That's certainly reasonable.
