10 wins. If key players stay relatively healthy- 10 wins. Nothing more..nothing less.
I don't have a problem going on record as not being sold on Golden's gameday coaching- at all. He has to show me that he can hang with teams he has no business hanging with and absolutely destroying teams that he should destroy. That's called "elite coaching". Look, Al gives a good interview and his organizational skills and recruiting intensity are great and all, but that doesn't exactly equal "elite" coaching..and the suckking off of this guy is at epic proportions. Why??? "Golden get's it"...*****, Golden better get 10 wins, that's what his *** better be gett'n..lest we totally **** away a potentially great 2014 recruiting class as we continue to watch top talent walk right outta our back yard while reconciling the phenomenom with that dumb *** "we only want kids who want to be Canes" bullsh1t.
Guys..an elite coach doesn't need 4 and 5* studs at every position to win. Great coaches win by out scheming their opponent's. They take away an opponant's strengths while masking their own weaknesses. Elite coaches don't get run out of the building whenever they face a more talented opponent, they hang with more talented teams...their gameday fate often depends on who has the ball last or the proverbial "bounce of the ball either way" when facing a similarly situated opponent (equal talent/coaching). They absolutely rape teams like Duke, UVA, BC, etc..
I'm sorry, but I don't see that in Al- at least not yet. Yeah, we've had the sanction **** and, yeah- he came on the heels of Shannon, but this year? No excuses. Our team is young, but we have experience at the right positions (GB, OL, LB, CB, S). Our offense should be high powered. Yeah, our defense sux ***, but what offensive juggernauts are we facing this season??? We should simply outscore most opponents on the schedule. Amirite???
UF will show us whether we have the real thing or a very articulate, well organized imposter. Show me something, Al. Please...
