Davis Webb transfers to Cal, spurns CU

Laugh, cry, punch myself in the face. The uncertain life of a Colorado Buffalo fan.

Sure would be a great day to announce a couple four star signings to put the focus on the positive!
 
I understand the CU frustration!

However, it is a pretty easy sell for a QB with aspirations for the NFL...

1) Cal: We just had our QB go #1 in the draft.

2)CU: We have sweet uni's and a head coach with a really poor record at CU as well as his overall career record.

Completely agree. If we had the opportunity to sign him without him being able to shop around, than boom we have Webb. But you can't blame the kid for choosing a school that throws a ton and sent their last QB to the NFL with the 1st overall pick. I just wish we played CAL this year in Boulder. That's too bad.
 
The "he has a right to do what's best for him crowd" doesn't get it. If he wanted to go to Cal that decision should have been made months ago. Not days before he was set to enroll here, after he gotten everyone's hopes up, after other fallback options for us have been exhausted, after we had installed an offense similar to Texas Tech in part because of his arrival, and after we had already invested many hours coaching him both remotely and when he was out here for the week.

This is all even worse considering the fact that had repeatedly promised our staff that he was coming to CU and seemingly over the past few weeks continued to string them along despite the fact that he knew he was likely Cal bound. This isn't sour grapes, he handled this very poorly and screwed us over in the process.
 
This was obvious from the moment the Cal rumor started. No reason whatsoever that he'd choose CU. Cal's had some ups and downs recently, but they're nowhere near the bottom like CU is. Fact is, our 20-year run (really more like 15) of football relevancy is ancient history, and the tepid football culture and extreme lack of diversity in Boulder (which McCartney miraculously overcame, aided by hookers and blow) will always be giant obstacles for us. We're the Iowa State of the Pac 12. That's just facts.

Given our schedule, don't see how we win 5, much less 6 games. Mac's gone by December. Not even sure he had a real chance to succeed anyway.
 


The Cal grad program scenario sounds like it is the winner here, not the OL issues. Seems like Webb got accepted today.
 
The devastating part is that the coaches stopped looking for a grad transfer or Juco once he signed his financial agreement. This really pulls the rug out from under us in more ways than one. It's a bush league move on Webb's part and we were in no position to protect ourselves.
