While we, as internet fans and armchair coaches, would love to think the "noise" created online and the rumors of rumblings actually are meaningful to the coaches and team. Truth is, we don't really register on the seismograph. That's probably a good thing. Speculation and reading tea-leaves is great, but I don't want our staff running the program based upon TSL (or any other sites) "Hot Take."

No-one has a good feel for what next year looks like despite the self-proclaimed gurus on this site (and others).

I think Coach Fuente and the staff have more patience than fans.
