Exactly. It doesnt matter what conference we were in when you had an AD who came from ****ing Miami of all places dead set on firing a crackpot like Pelini and replacing him with Mike ****ing Riley. Riley wouldnt have won with this program in the MAC.
Judge the Frost hire after next year when hes had time to build a complete team which finally looks talented but are very young because he had to rebuild from the ground up. It took alot of money to bring him here just like it did Fred Hoiberg who's probably a top 30 coach in college basketball who BTW has some solid transfers playing this year, a top 100 kid coming in next year and the favorites to land a 5* for the first time in school history.
None of that happens without money and the football program (because of Riley) would not have competed with K-State, ISU, Texas, Baylor, OSU or OU.
