Never seen Brian Howell this frustrated

[Hank]

I hinted at this before, but if the AD can't raise money (which is apparently now confirmed), we are in lame duck status until he's gone.

If this is the case, I might go get a bull**** post-grad degree at USC. Even tho I hate those f*ckers.

Three more years of this? Such a hard "no," I'll go somewhere else and probably never come back.

 

[Hank]

To be clear - I meant CU, not Allbuffs. I'll still post here when I'm winning natties somewhere else.

You could probably just start rooting for another team, instead of getting a degree there first. Who does Rebecca like?

She went to CU too. But she likes the Kardashians. I don't think I could root for them.

Pro tip: don't choose Auburn as a second team.

When did they go P5?

Dorrell is bad but Mel gets too much of a pass as the architect of our imminent destruction. He was handed average/competitive, brought in little talent and abandoned us at worst time. Buffs needed their best hire since Mac to fix that mess. RG went with Dorrell (almost Sark).

Really?

Mel Tucker apologist thread.

Why did you leave for 3 weeks? And this is what you came back with?

I have one of those. It doesn't help. Save your money

Actually, Dorrell ran off the only legit talent this program had in it. Mel left because of the systemic issues that have us in this position. Rick George didn’t need to hire him. He could have done his job and found another qualified candidate that wanted $3.5m+/year instead of offering it to this boob

Don’t disagree with most of this (talent?) but the “Mel Event” was 100% responsible for us getting waxed this year. Today’s struggles were unfortunately entirely predictable. CU isn’t Bama or USC and can’t hire an instant home run or get 5 stars to transfer in.
Not sure why this is even debated.

 

[J.R. Ewing]

Coaches leave for better offers. That's a thing; accept it and move on. The fault lives with our administration for making us an absolute bottom of the bucket offer that can't meet our meager promises.

 

[DBT]

There’s some conflicting info on that 1893 Tennessee team. Most info says they lost their first 4 games but the UT athletics website says they went 3-3. Seems UT believes they beat UNC 60-0 but other sites say they lost that game by the same score. @DBT do you remember what really happened?

Yep.

Especially considering your first.

[Shldr2Shldr]

If you are saying that the reason we suck so bad is that the admin overreacted to Mel leaving and went to the complete opposite in terms of quality, personality, and ambition for the nect head coach, then sure that is Mel's fault.

 

[Creebuzz]

I think the main reason why CU is this bad is the fact that Karl Dorrell cannot coach football.

[Go Buffs]

Or coach on the sideline (actually communicate with ANYONE), or make gameday adjustments, or prepare a game plan. In summary, be a legitimate football coach.

[Denver_sc]

There is no next guy up to trust. This staff is historically inept.


are you suggesting that after 3 years this is still midnight Mel’s fault? Silly.

Not picking on you, but it is quite remarkable how we went from some posters saying "This might be the most competent and best collection of assistants CU has had since Barnett" to "Historically inept" in about 2 months.

Pro tip: don't choose Auburn as a second team.

Auburn might be one of the few programs in the country with a messier dysfunction than CU, but at least they win some games and have a football NC not that long ago as well as a recent Final Four appearance.

 

[rosstr]

His delusions on where this program is, makes me think he won't negotiate either way. He thinks the program is better than he found it.

what’s most surprising is KD doesn’t have a firm grasp on reality.

Did you see the thread named after you, Rick?

would be interesting to hear from the players who left. Did they actually leave because they could already see the 0-12 coming? Or something else?

if you got no response and this look every time you asked a direct question would you have stayed?
