Pathetic? I get why BAS may be infecting your mind, but don't you feel hopeful that we are hearing all these stories of "accountability", Moffitt's impact, all-SEC players coming over in the transfer portal, etc.? Ironic to use the reference "it ain't like it used to be" when it's apparent that it was just a platitude made by someone who wouldn't back it up. Now it's being backed up and there is a lot of evidence to support it. It may be wrong, naive, foolishly hopeful, or unsophisticated but it is definitely not pathetic.
