Jimbo Fisher getting ready to roll in there according to ESPN and others. That would be entertaining

So basically exactly like 2022 CU a 31 ppg difference instead of 29The average score of their games was Opponent 40, Purdue 16. Throw out the opening 49-0 win against FCS Indiana State and it was Opponent 44, Purdue 13.

Think Positive and life will be Positive.
That piece about the Wazzu QB entering the portal as part of the deal is so dumb. I highly doubt that it was part of the discussion at all other than “do you think he would come with you?” They can’t force the kid to do anything and he can say he’s coming to Utah but if someone wants to start a bidding war for him, I doubt Utah wins it
Bobby Petrino is one of the finalists for the UNC-Charlotte job. Brewster is also still in the running along with NC State DC Gibson.
NGL, Nebraska losing it's DC in a lateral move to a non-P2 program that he has no personal ties to is ****ing juicy
Which is kinda why I’m glad PSU did into that ccg. Even if OSU was a “better” team, I knew they would lose to Oregon.
Outstanding move…if you hate FSU. Holy crap his O at UCF sucked.
Also, I can’t help but uncontrollably laugh at the KJ Jefferson situation…asshat.
Just wait and see where Fifita decides to play next year.
Forgive me for posting a tweet but the replies were just too funny.
Arkansas is a sleeping giant, why can nobody get that thing rolling?
Massive boosters, even Jerry Jones
Crazy how they suck

Agree. UCF has a huge enrollment and is located in a FB hotbed. Don't know anything about their NIL options. I believe they lose a ton of starting production to NFL/graduation (I don't know about guys having an extra RS, injury RS, or Covid season), however last year in B-12 recruiting they finished 3rd in HS and 3rd in TP. There is some talent on their roster. I sort of felt their season mostly came down to coaching and QB difficulties, probably not indicative of poor overall talent on the roster. Last two seasons were not good, but before that they won 9 games twice in the ACC prior to entering B-12. 6-7 last season, then 4-8 so the ax fell. If they hire the right coach and do not have to completely flip their roster, they may become a good B-12 soon. Correct: "right coach will find UCF is a sneaky good job." Rich Rod comes to mind off the top of my head (O set up for some spread option-so that fits), however I'm sure there many other qualified HC candidates to be considered.
Another factor in GM's move to FSU is whether Malzahn brings players with him. I think GM is generally well liked by players and coaches, so if the trust is not broken, they may consider FSU. An too early outside prediction is 5-12 guys may go with him to FSU. I gave a wide range, since I don't know FSU's positions of need, where UCF's individual talent that could plug in immediately in their 2-deep lies, how quick/agressive UCF will be with their next hire, and UCF to FSU is not a huge move geographically. If UCF acts slowly, a bunch of their roster may bolt.
They have always been like. Back in the SWC days they were always underachieving. weird

I had the exact same thoughts last night. The Tucson papers summed up the season a complete disaster and Brennen's seat warming. Can McMillan go pro, or is he required to stay in CFB one more year? Perhaps, this will be a package deal again as Fifita and McMillan have played together since 8th grade. I would love McMillan at CU. Fifita I'm 50/50% on him working out at CU. He is gamer, has experience, but on the smaller side. Prime and Co. would have to put some thought into this, as to whether they have enough to protect smaller QB's next season. Juju (more talent but True Frosh) and Fifita (more experience w/ less talent) could be a decent 1-2 punch. kNU started Raiola last season as True Frosh, and his numbers really tailed off the 2nd half of the season--probably the long season and pounding just took it's toll. kNU won only 1 away conference game against Purdue.
Another Cat to keep an eye on is Tacario Davis (CB). He looks NFL bound, however had injury problems the 2nd half of season. If he cannot combine well, he might decide to portal and play an extra CFB year in getting healthy. It could be risky for CU, as he could be injured through spring and/or fall ball and only get healthy very late, then decide to shut it down.
I'm keeping an eye on Washington and USC. UW was 6-6, but 0-5 on the road. They were blessed with 7 home games. There may be considerable TP movement on this team. It would be wierd, but Fifita and McMillan may do a package deal reuniting with Fisch. Who knows? USC appears to be a dumster fire, so I see some players bolting.
McMillan is gone to the NFL...he's a junior and I think he's a first rounder.
There has been talk of Fifita going to Utah but that was before the talk of the Washington State OC going to Utah with the WSU QB in tow. As for Fifita to Washington, I'm not sure about that since the UW coach took UA's QB pledge from last year with him to Seattle.
Fifita to CU would be a nice insurance policy on JuJu...people need to remember he will still be 17 years old when the 2025 season starts.
UNC has a ton of local support, a good booster network, and somewhat fertile recruiting grounds (especially compared with somewhere like Colorado).
The bigger issues:
- Football is viewed by a lot of the fan network as something to while away the time between August and the start of basketball season- the true sport there
- Unrealistic expectations with where they are in the NCAA pecking order- they want to think they're a top 25 program, but more realistically are a top 40 program. a nuanced but significant difference.
- Yes, there is a lot more talent in NC than states like Colorado- however, there are 4 P4 football programs in the state, with three more in easy driving distance all competing for the same recruits
I have thought it was insanity to part ways with Day but with that roster and what transpired on Saturday, I have to agree that a change is needed.
Day staring off in space while his team brawls at mid field should tell you everything you need to know with him currently.

Arizona is going to be so bad next year
Fifita is not coming to CU
Why wouldn’t they hire Scott Frost? Seems like he would be interested in rehabbing his reputation and could hit the ground running. AllBuffs would love having him in the conference.
