Sigh ... so we're already on a win number to keep a job? Ugh.

>our LB's and DB's., and I think a 4-0 start is possible (3-1 probable).

I have more uncertainty about this year than any recent one I can remember
-- probably because I don't see a clear #1 RB like in past years and that
concerns me. Especially since I'm not sure we can jump out to 3-1 or 4-0
without a strong running game ... and given our schedule this year
(Michigan for homecoming? Yikes! No Indiana or Minnesota - gulp.), we
really need that 4-0 start.

We'll see. I'm not sure what to make of the season at this point ... I
hoped the spring game would clear some questions up, but ... I do know that
I'd rather talk about just about anything in sports (even non-sports like
NASCAR or golf) in the next few months instead of setting some win total
needed for Walker to keep his job.

GO CATS!!!
