I'm with hambone; the team will rebound; but how long will it take? A bad year does not bode well for recruiting.

i think tyler is great==and coach smith seems like just the grounded kind of man we need right now--i luv to win but there are more important considerations--and the team will rebound.

Ya'll are both right but whatever his reason was for coming back, he still did and now hardly any receiver has been coached well enough to be there for and to catch his throws, and yes it's all Petrino's fault.

@wsparks - Don't fool yourself. Tyler Wilson came back because he had fooled himself into believing he had a shot at the Heisman and improving his NFL draft status. It was not a sacrificial act on his part.

Well, wpsark, I think we need to place the blame for that on Petrino more than anyone else. If he had only kept his who who in his you know where where, we wouldn't be in this predicament! That's my opinion.

I could coach better than that coaching staff! It's Tyler Wilson I feel the worst for, he stuck around b/c he wanting to bring the hogs to a championship but instead, we will probably have a 1-10 season
