Ex-Lion Fan, I can understand your frustration and demoralization, but you simply should not give up.I am NOT a lion, and have no reason to say this except as I believe it - you are GOING to have a really good team in the next few years. Actually, your coach has produced a bloody miracle. I never thought Columbia football would even see a competitive day. Now I KNOW they will. You have a GOOD coach and he WILL make the Lions competitive. He was almost there this year and the team is beat up by horrendous injuries. There's no administration conspiracy, I am sure of it. Your AD -she is tough and smart, I have seen her in action. It's hard to recruit top players to Columbia, mostly because of where it is situated. It's an urban school, the stadium is at a distance, the culture of the place is a little different - much more hip, urban, trendy, intellectual. But your coach is doing it. Look at Chandler - he was ready to give up on Yale earlier today and stated that Yale couldn't set the bar any lower. Yale fumbled at some pretty bad moments too and was sacked plenty too. He gave up too soon. Don't do the same. The point is - even though it must be frustrating, I believe you would be crazy to give up now. Columbia will get there in the next few years and these players are showing that. It's been a VERY hard climb but you ARE climbing. The FEEL of the games is that you are, even if you are losing these games. If you can get two recruits like that freshman QB and RB you are going to be OK.
