I sure hope the current HC is up to the task because we don't have a lot of time to start over yet again.
Came here to say this. Friends with a few Aggies and they aren't weird...unless there's a group of them.
It's far enough out that we don't have to be scheduling cream puffs to make bow games. If it was next year is be peeved.
But at least it's not a one off at aggy. Wtg Bohn
Yeah Aggies are weird, but in kind of an aw shucks sort of way.

It's all just fun and games until a pyre tower collapses.

too soon.
Also, read an article on the whole bonfire build organization. ****ing weird. Like really weird.
Rick George, IMO, will not allow Mac to continue to flounder (Sorry Flounder). I'd say Mac had better damned well turn this around ASAP. Because RG has just invested over $150,000,000 into this program and I'd bet he has visions of nationally televised games in the near future. That won't happen if we continue to suck. And I also don't think RG will grade Mac on wins alone. He'll factor recruiting success in to it as well. So, Mac, you'd better win and you'd better increase our recruiting rankings. And you'd better start right now.

Given the track record on Aggie engineering, it's entirely appropriate that Texas A&M is the creator of Disaster City.

What don't you buy?
That there is suddenly going to be a lot of pressure on MacIntyre.
Agreed about the support but he was also left with nothing so it might take more time than people think.

That would require a very very bad season. Embree without the WSU win type season.
Agree 100%. IMO, as long as MM keeps CU out of bad side of the news off the field, the 3-4 year clock on his job begins this year with the building of the facilities and hiring of JL.
I also agree here. The institutional and financial backing are now in place. The controversial past of Leavitt was not considered when he was hired. Everything is in place and there will be no excuse if he fails, but it won't be determined this year or next.
Yes. They are finally rebuilding the program from the ground up, rather than attempting to simply stop the leaking.
No
What makes you say that? Many on here at least have been consistent in saying this year it is time to step up and start providing results.
Why in the world would RG use recruiting rankings to evaluate? The only thing that matters is what happens on the field and if stuff is controlled off.
It's been his narrative for a while now despite opposing evidence.
Awaiting my next infraction

Expectations among the fanbase have been shredded, to be sure. Had GB gone winless in conference play, he'd have been strung up by his toes. By the time Embree was finished pissing on the ashes of the once-proud CU football program, most fans had long given up hope of any kind of football relevance. From that perspective, it's easy to see why fans won't be calling for MM's head anytime soon. MM is safe for 2015 and 2016, because while it sounds like a lame rationalization, it remains true that he had a monstrous hole to dig out from. The other five teams in our division aren't exactly helping us out, either. We're not operating in a vaccuum, here.
RG does not strike as the kind of man that ****s around. If he decides that he has had enough of MM, then it seems like he will make the move.
But I'm an optimist. I see one of the TCU or AM games being a ESPN gameday game with MM at the helm. :gobuffs:

A portion of fans are straight up sunshine pumpers that see a fan's duty to salute the coach and salute the AD.
Defenders of the faith may be prone to mistake fan critism directed towards the coach or AD as an assault on the school and on the program.
A portion of fans are into tough love and voice critisms every step of the way, through good times and bad. The curmudgeons hope that their critism is constructive, but it's not uncommon these sour pusses just look like ass holes with a sandy vaj.
Ticket sales and donations are the only true barometer of fan support. And those decisions are made more often than not by individuals than through any sort of fan alliance.
tl;dr. Fans are just the peanut gallery. Leadership must come from within CU.
