I've already stated earlier that my guess is 9-3. I also said that 8-4 was what was acceptable, which gives us a chance at your required 9 wins with a bowl victory. I think the line in Vegas is 7.5. That means 8 wins is exceeding expert evaluations. I think you and I are on the same page to an extent. I'm just not going to call our team, coaching staff, or season a failure if we only win 8 regular season games.
I'm being pragmatic. I agree with you but it doesn't seem to be a matter of right/wrong, fair/unfair, or even success/failure. It is just a matter of what has historically happened when a coach doesn't win early.
 
Probable conversation heard in the Cleveland Browns GM office:

GM: what do you think about Watson?

Assistant GM: Dunno… he’s got 23 sexual harassment lawsuits against him.

GM: Naw… it’ll be fine. Offer him a quarter billion, guaranteed

Assistant GM: what do you wanna do with Baker?

GM: Who?

Assistant GM: The QB. We picked him #1 overall a while ago.

GM: oh yeah… he’s still hanging around is he? Have him clean the stadium or something like he does in those commercials. I really don’t care.

A few weeks later….

Assistant GM: Man, things are looking bad with Watson. Who could have seen this coming? We could be in a bind at QB.

GM: Naw… it’ll be fine. Is Mayfarm done scraping gum from the seats? Bring him in here.

Assistant GM: Ummm…

GM: Mayberry, I’ve got good news. I’m shipping you to Carolina. I’m not letting you go cheap though. We are going to pay 2/3 of your salary to play there, and I demand a 4th round pick as compensation. I can probably get a decent lineman from Mississippi State with that pick. Shut the door please.

Texas had the #5 class in 2022 with 2 5* and 20 4*. They have more 3* committed right now than they did all of last cycle.

They’re recruiting the same they were before Arch.
