Just goes to show that any given season a team can gel and play way above expectations…
Ceiling is 10 wins if all goes smoothly
Floor 6-6
Realistic 8 wins
In Fuquay Varina so I’m game. Some place in Cary?
I’m game - likely 3rd game or later. I’m going to SFA and will be out of town for Rice. Cary works for me.
I prefer oak or cherry wood for floor, stained dark, and sheetrock with spackling for ceiling. Lots of crown molding
The SMU coach has a hot sports opinion on how bias impacts the ceiling:

I was thinking ceramic tile for the floor and multi-tiered faux painted sheetrock for the ceiling.
6-6 floor
9-3 Ceiling
8-4 Prediction
Popcorn ceiling and shag carpet baby…

Floor 4-8
Lose two games UH has no business losing (happens all too often)
Prediction 6-6
3-0 non-conf; wins over Okla State, Arizona, West Virginia
Ceiling 10-2
Three games in prediction’s loss category are clearly winnable (UCF, Colorado, TCU) + throw in a game UH steals from an opponent like the Coogs did to Utah & K-State last year.
Anything at or above .500 represents progress. A bowl game would be a nice reward for the coaches and players.
Bringing this thread back to review.
My ceiling was 10-3, if we stayed healthy.
Winner!
Guess I was “realistic”….
wow
For the record, I agreed with your take on the ceiling…
WVU and TCU should’ve been wins
Agreed.
We’re losing, subjectively, our 2 best offensive players, and 3 best defensive players.
I have no doubt guys will step up, through player development.
Every team loses players every year, but…
We need to get a half dozen studs from the portal to continue the transition on an upward trajectory.
I’ll bet the staff has a great list of guys they’re targetting and actively pursuing, as we speak…
Just hope Boo Carter is on that list.
And, since this is the 2025 floor / ceiling thread, it appears the Coogs reached what almost all of us saw as the ceiling, though I readily admit, we “could have” exceeded it…
It was still a great season nonetheless.
It’ll be interesting to see what Weigman decides to do with Keisean coming in.
Yeah, 9-3 was my ceiling, and we hit it.
Good.
