So, would you be dumping on AM if he didn't leave and gave us two years of mediocrity? I doubt it.
The fact of the matter is he's built the program up giving us a 4 year period of success in the process we haven't seen since the 60s. It's now up to UD to keep that going. If they don't, it's the program's fault, not AM's.

You are right, with 5 freshman coming in and what is left after this season, most saw year of mediocrity measure in W's and L's but after that year, we saw another 4 year run. So if AM left after next year, with a solid base and maybe only 1 or 2 holes to fill, I would be a lot more willing to thank him for what he had done for UD.
I don't know how you define "the program". But as far as the players in this program go, we have a lot of empty spots to fill. AM's program was him. I guess the AD is part of the program and to some degree, I fault him for allowing the program to be almost completely AM.
