I came over to the CardBoard for some optimism about my football team after last Saturday's debacle. All I found was a rehash of what is on Rivals and 24/7. Come on Shaw defenders Represent! Why does 2010-2015 look like such an anomaly now and we are back to sustained mediocrity?

I'm pessimistic in the short term, but I am not a terminal declinist; I think that while Shaw is often slow to come around to changes in college football (which is why people here have a tendency to view him as "stubborn"), he usually does eventually come around.  Thus, I think that the idea that Shaw is "stubborn" is wrong; it's more that he is (small "c") conservative.
