Amen. Risk/reward. It took years just to become a viable program. Anyone really want to roll the dice on a guy who will probably not be any good? As an added bonus, if by some miracle, they do find the second coming of Nick Saban (Toledo) or Urban Meyer (Bowling Green) he would be gone so fast, the ghost of Elton Rynearson's head would spin. Creighton has us on the cusp (against all odds), just gotta hope he can take it to the next level.

In the words of Ted Lasso, "It's the hope that kills you." He has had plenty of time in which he has proven he cannot take us to the next level. Stop being scared that the next guy will fail, so instead lets just watch the current guy fail to meet expectations.
