The issue isn’t how many points were scored. The issues are how bad they looked scoring them, and the fact that their record is now 6-4. And yes, I know it’s way too early to judge Steele. Heck, we gave Archie 2-1/2 years and a 1-6 Conference record before the pitchforks and torches came out en masse. I imagine the powers that be in Mouseketeer land will give him at least 2 years, unless the wheels fall completely off the X-Mobile before then. It’s just that this is the “games of note” thread, and a game involving 2 teams that we’ve played around 200 times combined makes that a “game of note”. And considering the storyline of _avier blackballing UD to keep us out of the NBE, yes, Dr. Schadenfreude is a friend of mine.
Fair enough, but Steele does not have a track record to judge him with. I have seen what Grant had to offer at other schools, and I was not interested. I would not have even interviewed Grant or considered him at all unfortunately. I was looking for someone who would do as well as or better than Archie, going backwards is not an acceptable outcome to me.
