Coug Intervention Needed
I'll say something controversial...
The reason why we are invited into the BIGXII has little to do with the on the field play the last 20 to 30 years and far more to do with the fans and the support base... outside of 1996, this program hasn't done a heck of a lot since the 80's and yet the fan base has expanded and grown and has remained extremely loyal considering that not much has happened on the field.

We never accomplished what TCU and Utah did in the MWC... came close a couple of times, but close doesn't count. Independence had 1 good year in a season where a last minute schedule was thrown together of Sun Belt, CUSA and AAC teams. We finally just beat our main rival for the first time in 12 years.

I'd be very careful in biting the hand that is feeding the program... we have sustained the program more than the program has sustained itself. Bronco failed to recognize this... Sitake does recognize it and does an amazing job in extending that hand to the fans.
