Wondering about the trajectory of the men's program comparing the state of things in 2017 with the glory year of 1977. I realize a straight year to year comparison wouldn't be fair.So,lets take the tenure of the two coaches at the helm at the time.Jim Killingsworth ,coach from 1971-1977, had a W-L record of 109-54.Bll Evans, head coach from 2012 to the present, has a record of 44-97. What do these overall records tell us?
Is it just a matter of Killngsworth being a better coach? Something tells me that s too simplistic.
Maybe it's related to the quality of athletes in the programs.(Was Ed Thompson,/Steve Hayes better than Ethan Telfar/Novak Topalovic)? Could it be a question of facilities? Doubtful because both squads played in the same locations.
i don't claim to know the answers to these questions. Maybe it's too many apples and oranges. Just wish that this years' Bengals looked more like the team from 1977.Interested in what others (particularly "Skippy ") has to say about these matters.
