Good omen: The last time the Jackets won a national title, when they went 11-0-1 in 1990 and split with Colorado, they were also coming off a 7-4 regular season.

Wow I wish that were always the case. We'd win the Nat'l Championship every other year! ;)

unfortunately, some think we are 2nd tier-team (see the 2nd email):

We are second tier. First tier is reserved for annual contenders.

really I'd be pretty happy at the top of the second tier if we were consistantly there and breaking into serious title contention once or twice every 10 years. I certainly believe that we could be top teir, but to expect it is a bit greedy. I don't see any excuse for GT being out of the top 25 more than once every few years though, the pieces are in place and should be for years to come. The boys just have to execute for us.
