It is absolutely absurd to equate criticism or doubt in a program with "too much to bear." And you are cherry picking the worst 18 years in school history as some kind of baseline for which Cut should be congratulated for improving upon. Some of us criticize precisely BECAUSE we support the team and want the best for the team and the program. Pollyanna never accomplished anything. And yes, we should be consistently MILES ahead of that 18 year period.
