Performance is key. UCF, Houston, and a few others have done well.

We can acknowledge their success while also considering our unique needs and our own goals and expectations.

If the expectation is P5, it has proven time and time again to be unattainable.

Bronco seemed to have a different opinion about it. His opinion carries as much

Why would it carry more weight than TH? Bronco doesn't deal with the financials of the AD.
