Have to agree. My university has been made a laughing stock for others (again) because of the incompetence of this administration. I think we've all pretty much taken all we can take of their ineptitude.

I would agree that high expectations soured the fans on the process, but I won't blame Hart for shooting high. What would we have preferred he do -- aim only for guys he knew he'd be able to hire?
I'll blame Gruden for hubris and Gundy for being manipulative. I won't blame Hart for talking to those guys.
Wins will appease the fan base. I think Butch Jones could deliver wins.
