You're absolutely right! Media bangs on us so hard because we went from about as high as any college football program has ever been to about as low as any program can get within 10 years. It's natural for people to hate whoever is on top and they can't wait to pile on when you hit the ground!The reason for the hatefest on NU is because America loves a tragic collapse, failure, embarrassing downfall of a cultural icon. In college football recently that was us. While we were reaping the spoils of victory after victory, the angry sharks began swimming in the rest of the nations heads. It becomes too much and then BOOM, we start sucking up the joint and everyone wants to pile on. Hence the reason 14 months of relevance has led to mass swarming of JayHawk and Tiger types making their presence felt everywhere.
