What did it get?

-A team that was significantly better this season than last in a much more difficult conference
-Still one of the top 50 teams in the country by virtually all metrics (it's not like all those other coaches aren't working extremely hard too, none of the successful coaches are sitting back and letting the recruits come to them)
-A team that appears to be on rise--hopefully Robinson returns, but even if he doesn't further team cohesion and improvements, the addition of Chandler and Baker, as well as others bode well for the success of this team in the future
-This isn't exactly a situation Pope needs to run away from
