In our own little world, this Spartan team was on the brink of greatness. They were in all the games except Stanford, and a couple they should have won. However, the maturity level was just a tad too low. Last night against Fresno "they grew up. They are men now." Next year will be the defining season for coach Mac. Can he and the coaching staff keep the team at this level and climbing. I fault the coaches more so than the players for the two losses to Utah State, and Idaho. The palyers put themselves in a winning position, but the coaches were out coached in each of the second halves. In the Fresno game, both coaching staff and players clicked. It was a thing of beauty, beating Fresno at home. After the Spartans were down 10-0, I had almost lost hope it was even going to be good game. Next year will be the year. Derek Muaava who I think will be stud in comming years made a play, I expect Sean Bacon, Marcus Howard, David Catalano, and Nate Falo (Frosh who look good on paper) to improve the D. Jabari Carr will be a go-to guy next year. Chandler Jones, and Kyle Nunn will do more, and hopefully Akeem King, and Sean Linton can get on the field. Dasmen Stewart has shown he can do good things. So offensively the Spartans have some talent. It will be up the the coaches to get this team ready to compete for a Bowl game next year. This is the most hopeful end-of-year feeling I've had in years!!!! Congrates 2011 Spartans, both coaches and players.
