There is no big ten west starting next year… Harsh reality is unless we drastically improve the roster with new talent, we will stay irrelevant. No way we hang with Ohio State, Michigan, USC, Penn State and maybe even Oregon with the classes and transfers we’re getting right now
As for waiting 2-3 years to judge because this is a “rebuild” - you think SEC schools have that mindset? Sounds like a copy paste from the Frost years to me
