No love for Hope and Maybe?

Yeah, he helped rebuild but it's not like he ever won a championship here or anything. he wasn't here long enough to determine whether he was great coach or not. Good grief, the Monken love is a bit over the top.

Would he have played, probably not much, but even having him on the field was a gigantic threat that other teams had to respect. Having him on the field against Marshall and UAB that year could have made us undefeated. What if Fedora had stayed? Could he have been our Gary Patterson? Would we have been invited to the AAC because we didn't crap the bed for three years straight after? What if Monken had stayed? Would he be seen as our savior? Could last year have been a Championship season or even more? What if Tyndall had stayed? People keep getting their small payments and don't rat him out, so he continues to be a superstar to all USM fans. We probably have been in the NCAA tournament a couple times by now as well.

A lot of what ifs with USM sports. Wish some of those What Ifs would come true.

What if the Metro Conference eventually sponsored football? That's the biggest "what if" right there IMO. Obviously would have a huge game-changer in athletics but academics as well.
