What is your best guess for FAU wins in the 2012 season?

0-2 wins - Suckdom
3-4 wins - Some progress
5-6 wins - Big Improvement
7-8 wins - Game changing year
9 or more wins - possible poster drug testing required

You must select between 1 and 39 options

Wagner is our 1st game, a I-AA team. We also play South Alabama that is moving up from I-AA.  I count those as wins.  So of the remaining 10 games, we win 1 more?      You didn't see the MG3 film highlights and you probably weren't in the same room I was Wednesday night.  I'm sticking by a worse case 5-7 but betting on 7-5.

I agree with both beastowl and owlmart. I feel like 5-7 MINIMUM and 7-5 more likely UNLESS the 3 G's don't qualify then 3-5 wins.

They wont have been offered scholarships and they wouldn't have signed LOI if they didnt have the grades to get up campus.

 Wrong kids do not make it on campus all the time we signed 29 and we only have room for 25 so we are expecting kids to not to make it if everyone was so confident MG3 would make it he would have got more offers.

How do you think the Juco players ended up at Jucos to begin with?

Re: Best way too early guess on wins for 2012?

The most accurate way to say it would be: the JUCO kids didn't have the grades to qualify coming right out of high school but they're expected to qualify now. If they don't have the same interest from the big boys now as they did before, it means either they're questionable to qualify now coming out of JUCO or maybe the BCS teams found someone they liked better at the position.

Don't sell FAU short.  We have a lot to offer now. Young, eager, hungry coaching staff. New stadium, beautiful Boca Raton. Not to mention a JUCO transfer like MG3 can start immediately at FAU rather than spend his last two years of eligibility as a backup.

I agree we do HAVE TO STOP SELLING FAU SHORT AND RAISE OUR SIGHTS.

WE ARE FAU - let's beleive that and be proud of that and build and GROW!
