RE: Embarrassing
This upcoming class will likely be the best recruiting class in school history.

Good lord. No one is unhappy with Norvell.

You need to read this thread and bowl game thread and see if that changes your mind. But I just came for one post about the senseless remarks made about Norvell and staff; will not debate it with you

Other than that we have nothing
HOUSTON Beat #5 Louisville and #3 Oklahoma and was ranked in the top 20 in 2016 and stayed in the Top 25 for 9 weeks. Houston was ranked as high as #6, a position it held for 5 weeks. Houston was ranked in the Top 25 for 8 weeks in 2015. It reached as high as #13. After beating FSU in the 2015 Peach Bowl, Houston ended up ranked #8 in the polls.
MEMPHIS beat a ranked OM in 2015 and reached #15 in the polls. Memphis was in the Top 25 for 4 total weeks. After the BYU bowl game in 2014, Memphis ended the season ranked #25 in both the Coaches and AP polls.
NAVY was ranked as high as #20 in 2016 and and was ranked #16 in 2015 and stayed in the Top 25 for 5 weeks and ended the 2016 season at #21
TEMPLE ended the 2016 season ranked #23. In the 2015 season, TEMPLE stayed in the top 25 for 7 weeks and ranked as high as #20
Which other non P5 conference has done anything comparable to that in the last two to three years?

As one of the purvayors of said critical comments, I will retort that I am indeed happy with Norvell. Just because a coaching staff does a poor job for an individual game does not mean I want them fired. That's ridiculous. What I'm saying is they need to do a better job of preparing the players. Not necessarily schemes, but preparation.

The Larry porter years were embarrassing. This game was disappointing. Big difference

It's a troll. Opened its account just to troll this game. Don't let it get to you.

Actually...
You think the Boca results will impact recruits adversely? I just don't see it. In fact, if there's any impact on recruiting, I could see it helping. Lots of opportunity for immediate PT.
Hate to lose. But not embarrassed and no damages to losing.

Yep. Some here clearly are looking for the worst outcome possible. They doesn't negatively impact the recruiting one iota
