Agreed. The team has high expectations, but it will only make JT look better if a borderline top-10 team rebounds from a down year and contends for a title.

I think there are more than just you confused.
BTW Golfer, Your quote is one of the funniest Buckeye Urban Legends I have ever heard. It is a rediculously long story but to sum up, it came from a post from another website where a guy drafted a speech as to what he thought JT should say to his team before the NC game. It got distributed by email and the rest it history. Now it is referenced on snopes.com as an Urban Legend. It was so believable in fact, that Joe Menzer ACTUALLY USED IT FOR REAL in his latest book. That last part is what makes it the funniest. Sorry to go off on a tangent but your quote reminded me of the story.
