Exactly.
I think we agree that a 1 or 2 year turnaround was not realistic while doing things the right way. Maybe not even a 3-year. That would have required bending a lot of rules on admissions for freshmen and JUCOs, turning a blind eye to off-field character concerns, and probably some manipulation of academics to keep players eligible. Especially in the face of building things without having facilities that were on par with P5 competitors. McElwain laid out a plan like that and it was rejected.
So this was a 4 or 5 year process to become a good football program again. Saying "10 years" comes across to me as excuse-making for MacIntyre if he can't get it done in the reasonable timeline.
Do you people not see that when you have a history of this in the national media...

that you should probably stfu on this subject

Tell that to Ray Carruth
Even if everything you say was correct... your conclusion is still outrageous. Because something wrong happened at a place 14 years ago, the people associated with that place lose any right to point out when a similar institution not only doesn't learn the lesson but even takes it to a worse level by several orders of magnitude?
Seriously, man.

I went to school at CU during the scandal. I am well aware of the particulars of that scandal. The fact you cannot grasp the difference between the two situations is hardly surprising given your posting history, but your doubling down on a false equivalency argument is quite amazing to watch.
Even if you accept the situations are mostly the same (which is false), the fallout is quite different. Ken Starr still has a job. The AD still has a job. But according to you, pointing out the differences is somehow self righteousness in action. Seriously, does that make any sense whatsoever?
And again, I will point out this is happening at the same school where the head basketball coach tried to cover up a murder. Baylor learned nothing from it. Nothing.

Tell what to Rae Carruth? I would love to hear you expand on this comment.
Expound us with your knowledge of the REA Carruth situation, dumbass.
Wut? What happened with Ray Carruth after his CU career has nothing to do with CU.
Exactly. There are so many factual inaccuracies in that story it's scary.
What does Rae Carruth at CU have to do with a quick turnaround of a football team? He was recruited several years after playing in back-to-back national title games. Also, he wasn't a troublemaker while at CU. What he did later has received nothing but condemnation from the folks on this board.
Now you're just trolling. Getting close to a ban if that's what your goal here is.
Can I ban it? I haven't banned anyone in a while. Gettin itchy.

It would be nice if you did something around here.
Be very, very, VERY careful what you wish for. I'm like a missile without a target lately.

Somewhat Ironic that I ran track with Rae, tackfan. Rae's problems came in the NFL - that is a completely different subject.
I've had enough of CTF. Buh Bye.
What the Hell does Rae Carruth have to do with any of this?
I think he's being deliberately illogical and obtuse to try and equate CU with bailer and derail the thread. I have a hard time buying that he actually believes this nonsense. Ban him.
He wrote the 70's hit "Convoy", I believe....

Leave me alone dick lol.
yes, let's get back to the point of this thread: bailer's funeral pyre!
i guess the school that actually casts itself as "the protestant notre dame" has a way to go. it will be hard for them to be the shining light of bible school football when they are relegated to a non-p5 conference.
