I love Tad, but more and more I get the feeling he, especially combined with our AD, can't compete in the NIL era.

Damn Weiser. Time for a recall...
Doh! Thank you.
**** that! It's insurrection time! Make CU Hoops Great!
(Not sure I can use "again")
Can we at least get to "not an embarrassment" again?
Does it fit on a hat?
I burned that hat.
Some assumptions:
1) Tad & Co. are currently working their budget to pay Dak and Rancik first and foremost.
2) Baskin and Malone are currently working to get an extra year of eligibility. Whether that's with us or elsewhere remains to be seen.
3) Kossaras and Crawford aren't going anywhere because no one wants them.
4) The incoming class, while good, will be nowhere near capable of weathering the Big12.
5) Our starting PG game 1 will be Kossaras and not because he earned it.
And finally...
666) We'll win 9-12 games next year.

Saw a thing on twitter that Dak is headed to Providence, hard to say if that's accurate. I think Rancic stays and gets paid.
Malone may or may not stay, don't think Baskin has a way to another year, unless something real weird happens, he's out of eligibility.
You're right on Kossaras and Crawford
If the incoming class all stays committed they are two to three years away, most if not all of them will be gone by the time they are ready.
If the game in Vegas is indicative of Kossaras's ability 9-12 wins might be generous. Unless scheduling gets real soft. At least there isn't a Maui Classic on the table. At least I don't think there is.
I don't think there is anyone on the roster that is an absolute need. This was a bad team with limited talent. Blow it up, grab 10 out of the portal (forget walk-ons) and add the best remaining HS players. Rinse and repeat until the roster is reloaded. Worked for CP.
There's no one of substance coming.
At least I'll make a tiny bit of my portfolio back by dumping my season tix.

Two former 4 star basketball recruits are transferring to CSU. I would love if these type of recruits were in CU's transfer class - at least they have talent on paper. WTF is Tad Boyle doing? He should have already been terminated.

You want guys that didn’t contribute to a team arguably as bad as CU was, transferring to CU?

Not yet this offseason
He wants to bitch.
Frankly, if he's transferring to CSU in the post-Medved era this quickly after the season ended, the dude didn't have very many options.

Booth isn't a great addition either. He's languished the last two years and if i recall was on CSU wish list last year as well. 4* in high school doesn't mean that they will be great in college. On paper it does look good though.
Since they were highly recruited, they have probably have physical talent. That's more than you can say for CU's transfer class of bums last year, and probably this year.
I want a new men's basketball coach, and an AD with the balls to make a change and support the program.
You get the second part done, and I'm on board for the first. Until then, the devil you know...
I hear you. CU desperately needs an AD who supports both men's and women's basketball. We don't have that with Rick George. Frankly, he has been negligent with respect to both programs.
He is here to stay for as long as CP wants.
I love Tad. I'm biased as all **** as I sat through some horrible hoops in my time. Tad's ceiling may be limited, but his floor is higher than most. I get the frustration, and I feel it too, but with Tad I at least know our teams are gonna bust their ass and get better as the season goes on. With the unknown, it could get seriously ugly (or seriously good) but considering the amount of support our AD gives I feel like I'd rather go with the "sure thing" than roll the dice.
