Renck doesn't get the area code for Moscow, Russia confused with the one for Kansas City, MO like Mikey did yesterday. He doesn't have any credibility on anything that doesn't involve the Broncos.
I always thought that we needed to send a thank you card to ted tollner for tanking usc’s recruiting in the mid eighties.
7 or 8 with the fact he knows the area, great recruiter, NFL connections, West Coast roots, keeps DC and Hagan, and will stay as long as he is successful.
He is in my lane and fits nicely.
RG is pulling out a good rabbit
If Sarkisian or Grinch would have been a 10 for this program, I would say it’s a 6 on the surface. Let’s see what their plan is.

Overall this was a safe and average hire for CU. I think that is why people are upset. The program needed to take a risk at this point, Alex Grinch, Graham Harrell or Ryan Walters would all have been "a risk" but a risk this program needed to take. Rick George said lets be 6-6 or 7-5 and get Karl Dorrell. I guess 6-6 is better than 5-7? However shows no nuts and shuts the door on the buffs program as a whole. Average at CU is the best we're gonna get and we have to be ok with that. Sure he was ok at UCLA and an NFL assistant forever. He also had one year in the SEC were his offense went 0-8 and was fired. All in all we are going to be ok, average and maybe even get to a bowl game. We still live in Colorado so that's cool. Rick George is cool average dude.

Depends on how old you are...If you were in Folsom and watched a Crowder coached team. This all started in 94, Miles, Barnett or Dinardo should've been handed the torch, instead we got Ricky who went 20-4 with Mac's players. Coach movements were not headline material, they moved for a purpose. ie coach Mac a DC who earned the opportunity at a time when there wasn't the public awareness of success.
Well - I don't know squat about him. But his honeymoon around here is WAY TOO DAMN SHORT!
Cinch up, boys and girls. Let's see what he can do.

Do you have evidence that that is accurate?

Yep. Coordinator and staff hires are key. Does he keep class intact?
Good arugment for Dorrell but my concern is he's coached 1 year of college football over the past 12 seasons. Sure it has worked out well with Herm so far but that is an outlier.

USC was breaking the rules to get recruits during his tenure as head coach though which led them to getting sanctioned and restrictions being placed on them which is probably one of the reasons they’re down now.
Let’s give KD a chance during spring ball. I do t think he’s going to install the triple option right?
It’s still an exciting time since there are new starters at some key positions. There going to be some growing pains but KD could get it done.

WTF?
It was tweeted by a member of the Denver sports media. Given their collective track record this past 10 days I’d say it HAS to be true.

Embree was never a coordinator...never a HC....and hot footstomped as an HC....not anywhere close to KDs resume..

A high 3, but a 3. Rick George's nuts got a little bit smaller right before this hire. I'm excited that we can be .500 just not a sexy hire at all.

That is not the reason they are down now.
In his 5 seasons as head coach against the best USC teams in the past 40 years, Dorrell won once. Remind me how many times Colorado has beaten dog**** usc teams.

Holy ****.
I guess it's time to find out if the recruiting infrastructure that MT put in place will work absent MT.
It is scary as **** that CU hired a guy who has only coached (and recruited) one season out of the past 13 in college. The recruiting game is so much different than it was in 2007. hiring good recruiters is going to be CRITICAL.

All completely irrelevant. Only thing that matters is his ability to win games.

I think I'm at like a 5 with good assistant hires could go up or down a couple.
I'm also totally blindsided by him so maybe I just need a few hours to warm up to hating the hire. We'll see

He can't do it all by himself. CU tried that under MacIntyre and we saw where that got them.
As much **** as this board gives Chev, he’s been our recruiting coordinator for like 3 seasons now and is a pretty good recruiter himself with big time relationships in CA and TX. They will need to bring in better recruiters at other positions obviously, but Chev is a huge asset on this staff and someone who I think can bridge any gap with Dorrell getting back in the recruiting game.
Chev played for Dorrell at CU, so I am pretty confident he is going to be just fine and will still be RC, and likely still the Associate Head Coach
