Forgot to mention Landry even suggested Art Briles as an option if MacIntyre was let go but couched it as far fetched -- would CU even be willing and would Briles even be interested. Smh at the complete lack of awareness of such a notion.

No way in hell CU touches Briles. Would be a complete media circus. He couldn't wipe his ass without the boulder media investigating it.
It's not even worth discussing. CU folks laugh at the notion.
CU would be looking for someone in the David Shaw mold in terms of values and integrity.

beware the habu
I doubt there's an AD in the country who would go after Briles, this year or next.
On second thought, there's always the $ec.

It truly would be Helter Skelter if he even gets looked at. No chance in hell.
Ding ding ding.
But hey, people scoffed at the notion this spring when I said Mike MacIntyre should be doing more to promote the program.
CU is launching a new weekly TV spot on altitude, and just got their premier video department a spot on Pac-12 Net. Sounds like they are trying. Need to get on board with one of the local FM stations though to do a weekly coaches show.
Yep. Even if they had to pay for the air time, I think they should get the MacIntyre and Boyle shows on tv.

Why don't we get someone here that can fix the PR stuff? Is that the coach's responsibility or do they hire folks for that? Idk just asking.
The AD is probably more responsible for that then the coaches. Coaches will show up for what they are told to show up for. Someone else manages organizing those things though.

Surely Rick knows this, he's done a ton already. I hope he's working on it, I'd think he would be.
104.3 had Klatt on this morning.
Outside of their constant attempt to move him into NFL (Broncos) talk he had some interesting comments on college football.
He commented on this being a critical year for the PAC coming off a season they were left out of the playoff. He also said that this is a critical year for the Buffs to take advantage since the top of the south is weaker than usual, CU has to step up.
Also said it is critical for CU to get back into the bowl cycles. Pointed out that the extra bowl practices are critical to developing younger players, playing in four bowl games is the equivelent of getting an extra year of spring ball and fall camp for developing players.

Joel is a very smart individual and knows as much about college football as anybody. I really enjoy when he's on with the local guys, as well as the national shows like Colin Cowherd and other Fox shows.
As an aside, it would be great if Colin Cowherd and Skip Bayless would pair up and do a show together. Contain all those horrible takes within one neat little package that is more easily avoided.

My God, Idk if I could take those two clowns together.
god willing they would kill each other... maybe even take ****lock with em
Does Rick know he's alienating media by excluding them? Really, it's time for Plati to take his state retirement and have this thing revamped from the top with an internal organization that understands the outside media, social media, and goes after this from a circa 2016 perspective.

I agree, what's stopping them but them?

He also said that if they do fire mm would the admin big boy up and pay a top tier coach. Briles was used as a name coach that doesn't have a job but we all no that will not happen. He mentioned that butch jones was using cu to get that vols job and if they didn't offer he would have stayed at
cincy. He also said that it was nice to upgrade the facilities but that was just to catch up with the rest of the conference.
He is good but he is also in the south where they take college ball serious.
The statement about the facilities is ignorant. I will assume that he has not seen CU's facilities or other facilities in the Pac-12. CU had been behind others in the conference. Now it is ahead of the conference. It was a hell of a lot more than a project to just catch up.
Agreed. Landry is an $ec guy and frankly, I don't expect him to know that much about the PAC12 or CU in particular. Self anointed experts, who don't do their homework, when asked about something they know nothing about, should say something like "I've heard what they've done was long overdue and it should help a lot". Otherwise, stfu.

Using Nik to throw Rick George under the bus. Nice!
Only reason CS Ewe gets any pub is their new mini-stadium and Big 12 speculation.
Its Rick's job to do PR and go buy or rent himself some Denver Media-types; HCMM can only go along for the ride.
Local media types don't like or are uncomfortable with HCMM, he's a strong Christian and they are all "sophisticated" agnostics or atheists.
What? You have evidence on that last assertion? We have agnostics and atheists on this board who seem to like HCMM as a person quite a bit. I think the local media issue is something that goes back a number of years and is not related to HCMM at all.
I think your last assertion is completely ridiculous. MacIntyre is public with his faith, but not nearly to the same level that McCartney was. In fact, I have never really heard MacIntyre bring it up off script, so I highly doubt they hate him because he is a strong Christian. I doubt they hate him at all. They just do not really know him, so he gets lost in the shuffle.

The problem with Plati is that he is part-time and really just a stat-man/sports trivia guy (500 page Media guide, but we can't get current photos of all CU athletes on-line or a simple usable current FB roster for downloading, Really?? and whose main attribute is he has been there forever), despite what everyone thinks.
Let's get a real full-time SID , someone who knows where the bodies are buried and can arrange for hookers, blow and fancy meals, for the local media geeks, most of whom have never been laid by real women (recall rumors of the unholy alliance of Plati and Natalie Meisler!!!)!

Didn't say they "hate him", they are just uncomfortable with people of faith, who are not Broncos-related; it's too counter to the way they think.
So you are just making up an argument? Thanks for the confirmation.
