Brown, like the rest of the staff, gets a pass for this year and probably next year as well. Even if you're the best position coach in the country, the head coach matters. And I don't blame anyone for not wanting to play for Halkins.

Mental midgets. I really don't think it matters how many times JE and Co get in their face about something, it's not going to sink in with the majority of these players, or at least it seems that way.

Tackling was killer today, saw way too players try to arm tackle or not wrap up.

CU is lacking in talent in key areas.
QB
CB
We are not lacking in talent accross the board, again the reason we lost today is bad coaching , not lack of talent. Why would our Safety even bite on that bothers me. He should be deeper, play like a center fielder don't get beat with 1 minute left, and who is the secondary coach again. Still don't know why B Lock and Espy is starting ahead of Moten, hawkins and Olatoye. Are they struggling academically or did they violate a team rule.

No it's lack of talent. Here is what our secondary was today:
-a true freshman at cb
-a converted rb at s who can't tackle and plays 20 yds off the line of scrimmage
-another safety with no speed who's probably still looking for his jockstrap
-a rs freshman playing his first game
-a rb who's never played DB before
-a wr who's never played DB before
Couldn't agree more. I almost threw up on myself as I watched Perkins suck up and the WR was blowing past him. You're a safety in a game with less than 2 minutes left and a lead and you let a WR get behind you? Absolute brain lock. Saw a couple of coaches ripping him as he was coming of the field pointing to where he was supposed to be.
This is true as well, not hard for most QBs to look good when they can stand back there and pick out recievers like they are in practice.

it was a bad defensive game plan. Will watch it again tommorow and give you a detailed breakdown.
Three plays comes to mind right now.
1. 3rd down and about 3. CU had 2 DL the rest where in coverage, The QB of WAST made an audible, The defense didn't adjust, easy run first down. How can you not call a defensive audible on that bothers me.
2. We haven't stopped the QB draw this season.
3. The final scoring play of todays game. In an obvious passing situation, why was our Safety playing so close to the line of scrimage, why was he not deeper, why didn't our CB press the reciever, with a deep safety over the top.
Shut the **** up, Metro boy.
Sorry I got to CU-Boulder.

Again why was Jonathan Hawkins a 5 year starter not playing. Why was Olatoye not playing. Can somebody pls answer that. Going by the spring game, they can't be that bad, are they injured. Won't surprise me if Olatoye transfers.
Probably because they are worse than Espinoza and BLock or they don't know the playbook.
can't wait
Hawkins and Olayte all show NFL ability and Ray Polk is a future pro bowler.

**** it. Season is a lost cause..next year will be even worse. Better hope that Jon is the guy for the job, and we show progress in 2013. Otherwise, we are ****ed until 2017 (at least).

I watched the spring game this year, Olatoye is not good, but he is better than Jason Espinoza and Brian Lockridge. I just hope Olatoye is injured, becauese wouldn't surprise me if he transfers, wouldn't blame him, this is just total disrespect. After saying that maybe i don't have all the information, it could be non football reasons.

Brown has been here less than one season and DIDN'T RECRUIT ANY OF THESE PLAYERS. So your argument is ridiculous and makes zero sense at all.
He was here from 2006-2009 and spent 2010 in Arizona. These are his guys.

Maybe because we werent playing press man. The safety was supposed to be back there, again, since you dont wanna listen. Perkins ****ed that whole thing up. He wasnt supposed to jump the short route. Your bad coaching bs was nothing more than a senior safety that broke the cardinal rule of 2 deep coverage. Nevermind tho.

That would be a No
And are you asaying both Espy and BLock know the defensive playbook.
It's possible. Why do you think they aren't playing?
He may want to transfer but I wonder what options he will have if he does. He wasn't bursting with offers coming out of HS and anyplace he wants to go is going to look at our situation and ask why he didn't get playing time.
