This thread may turn into gold here.
First, Rhule wants people to focus on how good the kids are off the field, not the record on the field. Good luck with that.
Then a poster follows this up with expecting Rape U to make a bowl next year and then compete for a conf championship in his third year. What an idiot.
But my favorite is this post which tries to make the claim that UTSA and Duke are really solid teams. He thinks UTSA is a top 35 team. Again, he thinks UTSA is a top 35 team.

What I know right now for sure is that we're 0-3 against really bad competition, and that shouldn't ever happen.
I would disagree with this part a little bit. Look at UTSA's schedule this year, they are probably a top 35ish team and have an outside shot at finishing undefeated now. Duke probably deserves to be top 25 (especially if they take care of business against UNC next week), and they absolutely nailed a Northwestern team that I though 2 weeks ago was light years better than us. Even Liberty (whatever classification they are this year) should be favored in all of the rest of their games, plus that game had its own extenuating circumstances with injuries in the secondary. What I'm saying is, yeah this team isn't top tier by any stretch of the imagination right now and I would prefer W's over L's, but they haven't been losing to "bad competition". People get so caught up with P5 vs G5 and the names on the front of jerseys that they sometimes don't recognize good teams when they see them. I think Duke and UTSA are actually pretty good teams this year, and Liberty isn't what I would call "bad" either.
