We lost the blue collar work ethic.

I always wanted a grind it out, outwork-your-opponent in the offseason, be tougher during the game, and play with an edge football team.

Only Mangino brought that attitude in my lifetime until Lance showed up. I was convinced this would be our identity day-in and day-out.

Perhaps we just lost our way and this season is resetting who we need to be. I just don’t see it with this bunch. Sure, I do believe we have those guys but I don’t think we have a team of those guys anymore.

It feels like we lost some key coaches and key players and the team of this year thought they were the team of last year. Feels like “you reap what you sow”.

I’m still going to the rest of the “home” games. I’ll still keep buying season tickets, but it definitely feels like we’ve been served up a heap of humble pie.
