But back to the quote above. Part of the reason people are pissed is that this year should have been one of those chances at a 10/11 win season and a run at the conference championship. Big 12 is way, way down. We should have been competitive versus Nebraska and Mizzou. We should have defeated OSU at home.
I don't see how anyone is suprised by where we are at or that the season has gone the way it has. We've pretty much performed how someone would reasonably expect us to perform, and probably slightly better (1 win or so) than anyone here expected.
People are surprised because they want miracles from LHC Bill Snyder. He used to make our wildest dreams come true. Now his teams just "perform about how you would expect" and that is not what dreams are made of.
