I know that this is total naivete on my part, but if he was honest with himself, KD would resign. He would have to know that he's just stealing CU's money at this point.
Is there a way we can just fire the mother****er for cause, and when he asks what cause, just show him the film of the last 16 games?

I don't expect him to do that. Financially, he probably needs this contract. Most likely, he is done coaching. And it's not like he's a guy who made a bunch of money from prior gigs.
He wants his money but I also think that he has convinced himself that he is actually doing a good job and the losses aren't his fault.
Well, he's definitely not going to do that, if for no other reason than, like other coaches, he probably thinks he can get it turned around. Most college and pro coaches are masters at self-deception. Very few of them realize they suck.
As for being done with coaching, he'll probably just go back to being a position coach, with a much fatter wallet, thanks to RG.
He was a HC for a P5 program for 6 years, an OC for a P5 program and an NFL WR coach who was assuredly making mid-six figures every year while doing that, and has now made somewhere around $11m over 3 years from CU. He will be fine if he never receives another $$
I mean honestly, most coaches are like that. If this thing or that thing or the other thing had gone another way, they could have had a chance, and things are going to break our way next time.
And it might be true for teams that aren't losing by 4 touchdowns every week.
Remember when JE was fired he was angry and convinced that he hadn't been given a fair chance.
I agree with you that any rational person looking at if from the outside would have no question that KD is failing completely but the actual coach isn't rational.
Pretty close
kid qb didn't get killed so that is a positive. the fact that it was in spite of rather than because of the coaching and schemes is a big ****ing negative.
lincoln kennedy's commentary was funny if it wasn't so true-- considering our head coach is allegedly an elite nfl wr coach, he sure as **** doesn't seem to understand how to put his qb in a position to succeed with the wrs.
defensively, chris wilson is horrible. i mean, seriously horrible.
the staff can't recruit, can't retain, can't develop, and can't gameplan, adjust, teach, or otherwise coach at all.
the kids tried really hard for most of the game. i feel bad for them all.

He doesn’t need the money. He will be an NFL position coach again for appx $300K to offset full contract if he doesn’t get bought out.
Can’t disrupt the team chemistry when they haven’t been mathematically eliminated from bowl eligibility!

Back from the game. Beautiful day. Surprisingly large crowd for a team that scored 30 points in three games. They've finally figured out how to get the beer lines moving by stationing a beer vendor every three feet. The guy next to me said I should stand up and try to get on the Jersey Cam. I told him, "If I get myself on the big screen, people will know I came to this game." I have never seen a defense manage to be so far away from the ball at any given moment.
The new Ralphie has to be embarrassed to a be part of such a dismal program. I feel for her.
With 18 mil in his pocket, and a now toxic reputation, KD will never coach another down of football.
Self-awareness: you lack it.
I think he is done.
The guy I see on the sidelines and in his appearances looks like a guy who is done coaching. He absolutely doesn't want to go back to the grind of being an NFL position coach.
If/when he gets fired he will have an agent submit his name for head coaching jobs and some coordinator positions, none of which will have any real interest in hiring him, and thus satisfy the contractual obligation to actively seek offsetting employment.

I missed this trash because I officiated a freshman volleyball tournament today instead.
The volleyball I saw was more interesting than CU I'm sure was.
I know his realtor. KD is ultra conservative with his coin and invested his haul from UCLA. He had already built his dream house in BoCo and was 2 years out from retirement before RG gave him the lottery ticket. He will take a negotiated buyout that excludes him from looking for work.
the joke is on all of us for financing this scam. Some of us more than others.
Rick is an awful business man according to EVERYTHING HE HAS DONE.
We should have that pitch down pretty well by now...

If he says I'll take $5-6M and no offset clause I'm doing that tomorrow.
He has an offset provision. He’ll need to go back to NFL WR coaching to get his money.
