I would like to see 6-8 wins, just for Kiffin to remain for at least another year. Switching coaches year after year after year is'nt going to get this team to truly gel. I believe this is the first time in about 3 years that we have a team coming back under the same coach- if you want to count Norvell, that is. Like they say, time will tell.....

I feel the same way, I'm tired of potential and looking great on paper... get it done plain and f**king simple...
