CU Buffs hire former Minnesota OC Mike Sanford as their new OC

- Start date
Like ****?
My favorite part of this is Dorrell’s entire selling point he has decided to focus on is Sanford’s track record with “developing the quarterback”.
A man who has demonstrably shown significant regression at the QB position across all of his stops is being sold to us as a great developer of QBs.
Do Rick and Karl seriously think we’re that stupid? Tell us “we’re focused on a hard nosed and creative run game” or something based in the reality of his history as a coach. Great developer of quarterbacks being the main point they want to hammer is hilarious

“Better than Chev” is a very low bar.
New guy gets it.
I wish I could like this twice. Once for the sentiment, and a second time because of correct use of the term "mind boggling."
Rick George: Hmm let's get a NFL position coach who's insisting on running an antiquated NFL offense, and then saddle him with a proven incompetent OC who's only experience is in a completely different offense. Should work well. Oh, and we'll have that OC stop doing the ONLY thing he actually does well too.
Dorrell has said that he wants to run half pro style and half RPO. So, basically, multiple, or whatever that means. That's really not whole lot different than a lot of college football (multiple). We'll see what that translates to, but I'd be interested to see what they called the 2021 offense and how much different that is going to be in 2022.
Half dog turd O that rarely works in CFB and half O that does work. What could go wrong?
Dude.
i mean, riiight?! it's 'mind bottling' sheesh

So, the lowest bar in the sport. Got it.
It looks ****ty
Figured this was as good of place as any to post this:
we're number 12! we're number 12! we're number 12!
The follow up question should have been “But you’ve failed at every stop over that span. Why go back to the well instead of trying a different approach?”
Impressed how well the house stays together initially. They just don’t buildem like that anymore
Yep. It is from 27 years of hearing other coaches “coachspeak”. Inauthentic is the worst trait.

KD offense won't work if we can't run the ball. The OL cant block, so CU can't run the ball. All this talk of half RPO or half west coast is all poimtless if you don't have the OL. I am extremely dissapointed by the activity in the portal. Still haven't signed any OL. This is the current OL depth heading to spring ball.
OT- Wiley, Filip, the tank, Gray
G- Roddick,Lytle, Ray, Jynes, Amaya, Anderson
C- Fenske, Johnson
Need two tackles, a center and a LG to have the numbers for spring ball.

With classes starting Monday, there are no other known additions coming for the spring. I believe Travis Gray will be on campus though as an early enrollee.
Most alarming is we have zero pipeline:
2022: We've taken 2 tackles so far
2021: We took 2 interior guys.
2020: We took 3, but 2 are gone.
2019: We took 5, but 3 have left. We did add Fenske from this class as a transfer, so net 3 added.
That's literally a giant flashing warning sign that we are going to suck for a long time. You need class balance and development like no other position here. We need 4 transfers at minimum plus two signees for 2022 class over what we have.
Where's the urgency KD?
Because I assume he wants to be a coach, working his way up in the profession, making mid six figures and potentially more one day, not $50k/year being part of the personnel department

It’s almost as if everyone, and I mean every single person who is either a part of or a supporter of this program, knows this is a sinking ship and no one can do anything about it.
There are a lot of people in denial, and another group of people who will always cling to hope and ignore negative news.
The biggest problem at CU is that those people are in charge.
No sense of urgency. Does he not understand that potentially very good players in the portal are signing with their new teams every day?
"Let's hire a Portal Manager. We can form a committee to write up a job description and when that's approved we can identify 3 or 4 candidates, and then we can create an interview schedule and after we conduct the interviews we can narrow the list down to 2 candidates and after having conducted second interviews with those 2 guys we can have a meeting to discuss the pros and cons of our projected choice and then a few weeks after that we can make an offer to our top choice.
We anticipate that the process should take no more than eight weeks and that the Portal Manager should be able to start work at the beginning of Week 9, just as soon as he or she has completed our 3-day Sensitivity and Ethics Workshop."
