I don't understand this type of expectation

I do agree with it if we are talking about 2027, but not sure it's reasonable to expect any coach to go from 3 to 9 wins in a year. It's possible. People will point to Indiana and other examples, but it isn't the norm and shouldn't be considered an expectation like this as if it's a pass/fail class. All signs point to the staff focusing more on the long term build than the one-off one.

I think 8 wins would be a tremendous achievement
VictoryTurkey • 01/30/26 06:10 PM ET
Indiana broke the expectations scale**
NOFX • 01/30/26 02:48 PM ET
No they did not, that expectation has been around TSL
VTCALS72 • 02/06/26 07:57 AM ET
Exactly, but should the expectations scale be broken though? Most people
