Needless to say this season was beyond disappointing. I believe most of us thought we could win 9-10 games and to be honest had we not had all the injuries (Foster being the biggest) we probably would have won 7 or 8 games, that still would have been very disappointing.
Losing AJ, Devon, Richardson, possibly Smith and a few others will be very tough to overcome but we've got a ton of talent coming back.
What really gives me hope and what makes 2022 a blessing in disguise is the fact that Jimbo's offense got exposed to the point that change is coming.
Another blessing in disguise is the fact that a ton of young talent got needed experience, none bigger than Weigman. I thought from the beginning of the season that he should play because I never thought this was the year we'd contend.
I hate saying any injuries are a good thing because they aren't but Weigman likely would not have played much had Max and King not been injured. Knowing Jimbo he probably would have rolled with Max as the starter next year had he not gone down. Max probably could lead this team to a bunch of wins but no where near as many as Conner.
The LSU game sets a good tone and patch not only to hold this team together but it give it something to build on going forward.
I'm a glass half full guy when it comes to Aggie football but I really believe this team has the pieces to win and contend starting next year if Jimbo can get out of his own way.
I'd like to think that I'd have learned my lessen by now not to get sucked into to the preseason hype but I'm sure I'll get sucked in again like I always do.
Here's to hope once again!
