Believe. Believe in the players. Believe in the team. Believe in Geno. It's hard for me to fathom how one loss can cause someone to lose all confidence in this team. Do they still have the best player in the country? Do they have one of the best freshman in the country? Do they have the best coaching staff in the country?
One bad game does not a season make. Now, make no mistake about it. I'm not a pie in the sky optimistic fan who can't see flaws. There are flaws. But so does every other team in the country. Has South Carolina played a top 10 team on the road yet? Has Notre Dame? Certainly not Tennessee. Who else is a challenger? Duke? Maybe.
The recent fan unrest about KML's size (see link to an article that started it) and Stokes play have some validity to them. But it's easy to look at a bad game and think the issues you see will be there all year. But it doesn't make sense with the track record of Geno teams this talented.
It won't be long before a tough game at Notre Dame. It will be a big measuring stick for this team. And I'm really confident.....ok.....really really confident that they will be ready for that game.
So without further ado
