Success is different for everyone. I do not base on wins or losses. Did we improve as year progressed? First and foremost for me success is a stair-step process that begins with winning the SEC East. Then the SEC. Then making it to the playoffs. Winning Natl Champ. That is ultimate success.
I can be satisfied with meeting expectations of winning the East. Then we move on from there. Can we have success without Natl Champ? Yes. As long as team improves and plays to potential giving 110% each game. If we are beat by better team, so be it. Success is going above what is expected to me.
