Maybe we just need to give the guy some time.
Not oblivious to the problems, but as we sit back and watch and comment do people really think that the staff doesn't see the same thing? Yes they backed themselves into a corner but not having a viable option at QB but come on guys. Let's get through the season and see what happens then you...
They have begun the hard work of convincing themselves they are good again. I sure hope NIU gets the upset. It seems like all the ingredients are there.
I saw quite a few of those Nub blocks on Hunter as if they won something. I can only imagine what another 62 point effort by CU will do to that fanbase.
I saw them as well. I'm having trouble understanding why a block like that doesn't result in at least a holding penalty
I wanted to see how MSU was doing so far this season.
What I found was that Nebraska is the only winless team in the B1G

Reminds me of Jim Harbaugh. I'm old enough to remember when he said the NCAA violation was just him buying a burger. I'm also old enough to remember him saying he'd never eaten a booger in lis life. Rhule is another Coach Booger.
Must have helped him beat Ohio State lately.
66BUFF
FTW
Worked for Shawn Booger Watson in 2001
N******** was playing pretty dirty. Still sucked complete and total ass. Their coach is a pussy. They’re pussies. Their fans are poor. They live in a ****hole. They’re irrelevant. They’re passive aggressive off the field.
When I become governor for Colorado, I will turn the ****ing water off and toss a match over the border once the fields are nice and dry

The best winless team in the B1G, or so I am told by a cornchub....

Nebraska almost always almost wins. Longest list of moral victories in college football
Oddly enough, they tend to get a little touchy when you bring up all their moral victories. I thought I was being kind and welcoming in a “Nebraska classy” kind of way when I told a bunch of Nebraska fans exiting the stadium that it was a very nice moral victory for them. They seemed to lack appreciation for that sentiment.
My favorite moment exiting the stadium was similar. I was thanking them all of coming and supporting the Colorado Buffaloes. One girl responded "WE CAME FROM DENVER" and then paused like she'd just dropped a hammer on me. I laughed a lot.
I don't agree at all. I think we get 2 years and MAYBE 3. His kids will be gone and he likes to take on new challenges. He doesn't have a personality for putting down roots.
We should all just enjoy this while we can.
I think we are all trying to talk ourselves into the reality that he will want to put down long term roots here in spite of the fact that he’s never put down long term roots anywhere. If we get three years from Coach Prime, a conference championship and a berth in the CFP, I will be beyond thrilled and forever thankful for his efforts. It will be up to the CU admin to take what he will have built and keep it going.
Dude. This is hilarious.
I’m referring to dio’s insistence that he doesn’t put down roots or stay in one spot for very long. There’s no evidence of that at all in his life and it’s weird that dio is creating that narrative 9 months into his tenure at CU
5 MLB teams
5 NFL teams
2 years as HC at Prime Prep Academy
2 years as HC at Triple A Academy
3 years as OC at Trinity Christian High School
2 years (3 season as the first was a covid spring season) at Jackson State
3 years at CBS The NFL Today
His longest stint was as an analyst on NFL Network where he did a variety of things between 2006 and 2020.
I don't think it is weird at all to look at his history and think the guy likes to move around and do different things. I hope he stays for 20 years - but if I'm right and he doesn't then he will leave us in a WAY better position moving forward.

Remove the sunshine from your eyes and realize you just said something that is ignorant of reality. See above post by @dio.
5 years with the Falcons, wanted to stay but left because the owner said he was too good to stay on a bad team
Signed a 1 year deal with the 49ers and became a free agent
Spent 5 years with the Cowboys that took him through the best years of his career and they released him at the end
Spent 14 years with NFL network
His coaching career to this point has been no different than 99% of other coaches who started from the bottom. He also coached his sons at every level so naturally he had to move up and move on.
Context matters

It’s not, though. Context matters. See above post by @The Alabaster Yak
Yes it does. But you said what you said, and your absolute statement is categorically false. Just because you don't like the evidence doesn't mean it exists. Back away from the hyperbole and your point would be stronger because you'd still have credibility.
And his sons will be done with CFB after next year....
Ok, I’ll change my point to say, “there’s no evidence to suggest he doesn’t put down roots or stay in one place for very long, relative to any other football coach”
You good?
Yea, that's not a dumb thing to say, but it's also a huge difference from your earlier statement. Big walk back.
Now, what is the average length of stay for a successful college football coach these days? Even Nick Saban jumped around until he ended up at Bama. Coaches who stay are the exception, not the rule.
Current FBS coaches have been in their jobs for an average of just 3.7 years
There are 29 new FBS coaches this season. They better not get too comfortable in their new jobs: They may not be there in 4 years.
Average FBS coaching tenure is below four years. Prime is a wild card, and anyone making definitive statements about what he's going to do either way is out to lunch. Plenty of evidence that suggests he's happy to move on to the next challenge. Also evidence that he'd like to be able to put down roots. Or maybe the dude retires, which is what he was going to do until his manager convinced him to coach.
But most successful CFB coaches either hang around longer than average or leave from mids because they are looking to level up to the next best program.Yea, that's not a dumb thing to say, but it's also a huge difference from your earlier statement. Big walk back.

I feel like we’ve seen more evidence that suggests Prime is different in that regard as long as he has access to the playoff and is getting the support needed to win at an elite level. He’s a self proclaimed agent of change and has not so subtly hinted at the idea of bringing social change to the Boulder community. Add that to his comments about the dream of bringing baseball to CU, among other things, and I don’t know why CU fans are already planning for him to be gone after the 2024 season.
You want to enjoy the ride? Thinking/hoping that CU has found a true unicorn in every sense of the word is part of it
