Duff, look, I really apologize if you took offense to my questioning your uncle or cousin or whatever he is to you. I'm sure he is a pearl of a man and would make a fine head coach for us. :thumbsup:
Again, wouldn't be a bad move, just not necessarily the best move.

Most of those programs have ZERO hope of doing any better than the coach they have. SMU scored a major coup getting June Jones out of Hawaii - in a town dominated by openly-pro sports, SMU has zero hopes. East Carolina? South Florida? Central Mich? Syracuse ("We'll pay 13 basketballers, but we can't afford to pay 85 footballers") Orangemen? These will always be 3rd- and 4th-rate programs with an occasional upward flash. Cal, like Stanford, can get the same push occasionally, but they'll have more consecutive decades at the bottom than years at the top.
Only CU has an history of football excellence.
All we need to do is keep on this same course, and we can sink to 3rd- and 4th tier, though, and drag down every coaching alumni CU hires. Give Embree a chance for a later life of success - fire him now. Give him a platform to move away from, rather than a longer history of career defeat.

Actually Syracuse is more like CU than you think. They rank higher with more all-time wins with 691 compared to 674 but a little lower in win pct with .581 compared to CU at .596. They also have a MNC and a Heisman. They had a pretty bad stretch in the mid to late 00's with a couple of 1, 2, and 3 win seasons. Sounds pretty familiar.
AZ aint buyin' it!

Krom, yes, Syracuse has a comparable numeric history. Especially in the 1920s, '30s and '40s. So I'll stand by my comments based on the last 70 years.
As for Tedford, I do wonder what he'd accomplish in a football program with a history AND POSSIBILITY of excellence. Cal's another program that had occasional veneers of success, but they're closer to M&Ms instead of a real football program.

He can't be worse.
So was also never an OC. And hired an OC that had never been an OC
I'd expect Tedford to hire a better staff.
If you think about it very few programs string coaches together. We were blessed to have Mac. I hope were that good again someday.
