I joined this group a few months ago as my daughter is a proud Red Raider. In spite of my bent towards the 40 acres, my intent was to read/learn from each of you and eventually contribute where I can appropriately add value.
Fast forward to this season and I will be attending the game in Austin, but this time wearing Red/Black and sitting in the family section. I only mention this because I want to provide some context with what I am about to post.
So, my confession: I have really been struggling with the disconnect between what I know to be the culture of the team and what I read here. There is a huge gap. These players are fully bought in and excited about this upcoming season. They love their coaches and believe in them. That starts with Wells, includes their coordinators, and relates especially to their position coaches. There are some special coaches in this program, that have a plan and will see success with this group. Are there gaps? Sure. Are we young? Absolutely. Can we play. YES. Just enjoy the journey...it's never easy.
Book mark me. Let's revisit this anytime this season. I will eat mine if I need to.
7-5 and then on to bigger things
