What’s this “end of the season” you’re referring to? He’s been blathering about how young the team was since just after he told us that they were ready to win now.

#Fire Coach Dorrell
- Thread starter InTheBuff
- Start date
Yep. I sincerely hope at some point soon, if he's not fired, Adam or Brian will ask him about the contradictory narratives he has pushed in a month's timeframe.
Yep. True freshman received substantially more playing time last week after the statement from George. The motive is Dorrell's own self-interest, not the interest of the football team.
In many cases they align.
Veterans should only be playing at this point if they are being good leaders or good teammates by setting the right example. Even with that, young guys at their positions should be getting more reps than normal.
If a vet is our best player but is not helping to build the program culture in the right way, he should be benched for a young guy.
There needs to be a youth movement. But that doesn't mean you play young guys just to play them.

Kardboard is a uninspiring. But at least he appears arrogant. It infects the team like a cancer. I am truly embarrassed for him by how self-serving he is. He knows nobody but the clown car that is the AD and administration will ever give him a job in CFB again, and he is reaming them for every penny. IMO, they deserve each other. I can only imagine how it feels to be hoisted on your own petard, and have the worst hire in Buff history work so hard to make sure your total mismanagement is on display, nationally, week in and week out. Just one man's opinion.CU notes: Buffs aim to utilize depth on defensive line with rotation

I'd prefer he just retire because I'm sick of B4L guys in positions of influence but if it gets him off staff and LC far away, I'll take it.
Is this not a consistent knock against the HC at nearly every position group for the last 20 years?
I'm pretty serious, name a position group where similar dynamics have not happened.
I really think he's just implementing his bosses' vision.
I would if I were him. He's the only back on the roster that's averaged more than 5 YPA and yet for some reason they saw fit to start a freshman walkon last week who was ineffective.
Honestly, what the **** are we even doing here?
Saliman needs to clean house. Tell Dr. Phil to stick to day to day operations, and his input on anything beyond ordering staples and computer parts is no longer necessary. Take charge of the AD, send RG, LC and anybody involved in hiring Kardboard out the door. Fire HCKD, anoint an interim, and go shopping for an AD who can hire and retain a HC who can at least deliver .500 or better records year in and year out. That is not that high of a bar. If the admissions people get in the way, tell them to take a hike too. CU should be running their admissions and transfers like their peers and quit pretending they are Stanford.

While I agree, I think Lance Carl's current role of Director of Alumni Relations almost requires a B4L kind of guy. Hagan's name would go a long way in that kind of role, IMO. It'd be a cushy gig where he'd get to bring former players back into the fold, connect with the older alumni who remember watching him during the glory years, etc. Of course, he shouldn't have any kind of role in decisions within the program.
Same thing we're doing giving a guy like Jack Hestera, another walk on, a decent amount of run in the offense. Let's not focus on Tyson, Sneed, MLC, Penry (I know he's been hurt), Robinson, Bell, Jaylon Jackson, or Grant Page more reps, we are out there running jet sweeps with a walk on.
That’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.
We are so lucky that Phil Lindsay was talented, a workhorse on and off the field AND had a great attitude. I'm sure if he didn't check every box, Hagan would've found a way to play others ahead of him.
Seems like a staff who isn't worried about losing their jobs. Or, they are, and they just DGAF

I am coming to the conclusion football will never again be successful at Colorado. We are in a **** conference and can't compete monetarily--that's the biggest issue but certainly not only. The admin at CU is at best indifferent, more likely hostile, to the AD and football in particular. We have 20 years of nearly uninterrupted failure. Other than the money, I wonder if Midnight Mel left cuz he knew he Colorado wouldn't let him do what he knows needs to be done.
When does basketball season start? LOL

Yeah, I’m not in favor of Hagan doing anything other than taking photos with donors.
Was thinking the same thing. It's probably got something to do with only Minnesota now being ranked, and none of the opponents being ranked when we matched up.

I know everyone on the board knows this but I don’t get to see many other college football games (kids sports) so I’m gonna post it anyways.
Ole Miss or Kentucky would hang a hundo on us with ease. The talent difference at literally every position on the filed is down right shocking.

CU’s actual competition is 15-1 this year so far. I think the talent difference has been on display.
Purdue looks way bigger, stronger, and faster than every guy on our team as well

The difficult schedule thing is a bit exaggerated. We've made teams look a lot better than they are with our incompetence. UCLA and TCU look to be decent enough teams. Not sure how good Minny and AFA actually are.
And I will say that is completely irrelevant to how awful this football team is.
