. . .

The problem is not that JK and his staff have not done a fabulous job. The problem is that some cows are so sick that they can't get well very fast, and the Rice athletic department that JK inherited was probably the sickest. Be patient and stay the course. It's not going to happen overnight, or even in a year or two. But the progress that has been made is frankly amazing. That we can still be where we are after amazing progress is testament as to how bad things were.

Absolutely correct.

If you disagree, you're wrong -- and perhaps deliberately choosing to be wrong.
