Of course they were but some think they don’t count for some reason.
We clearly regressed this year but recruiting is the best it has ever been here. We have cycled through coaches like prostitutes at a whorehouse yet it will work the 20th time we try it! It is worth waiting another year. Many coaches have taken several years to develop programs. Michigan has all the resources in the world and it took them several seasons to get where they are. Yet lifting up our dog crap program should be a 2-3 season affair?
Last year was 2-10 with 6 (I think) one score losses. They basically flipped three of those this year.
5-7 is about where most thought this team would be..
I think what makes it unpalatable for a lot of folks are two things.
4-1 start falsely raised expectations.
And
The Hawaii loss was awful.
