Completely agree except there are no excuses because you return 19 starters and you are a veteran team. This year there are no excuses. If I was AD, I would fire manny if he doesn’t go 11-1. Why? Because at some point you have to beat all the teams that you are more talented than and at some point you have beat a team that’s better than you. If you Can’t do that, then you have to look for the next coach. With that said, we know manny is safe with 9-3 because in the eyes of Blake it would show improvement.
