Even Hitler was excited about the coming new year, 1945, because he still had a roll of the dice (Ardennes Offensive).
I really don't feel Canes football even has a die roll left for 2015.
-Golden and his supporting Administration and puppet AD have their BEST excuses for 2015, after four years of excuses. "It's ONLY his SECOND year, really", "Sophomore QB", and of course "He lost ALL those players to the NFL! Rebuilding year!", PLUS, the default Goldenite line: "Look at that recruiting class! If he is fired, the class will evaporate!" Doesn't bode well for any incentive to win when losing meets expectations and the narrative.
-Tougher schedule, MUCH weaker team than 2014.
-If Golden hasn't been fired by now, nothing that happens in 2015 will make a difference. "Only" losing one more game than he did with a NFL loaded 2014 team will be hailed as proof of the process. 5-7 and his job is safer than Urban Mayas.
So, basically, we are looking forward to a fifth Golden disaster of a season, the inevitable collapse of the "Swag" recruiting class, and no amount of losses will make a difference for 2016. Not even a dice roll's chance of winning the Coastal, much less the ACC or a BCS Bowl.
Going to every game of course, but I don't even have that summer, pre season false excitement of the Radio years.
This program is about as dead as it has ever been.
