it helps Tad has never lost to Oregon at home.Oregon is quickly becoming the "must attend" game for CU basketball every year.
Just to provide more insight, Tad is 6-2 against Altman. Those 2 losses came last year. One in Eugene and one in Vegas.
Dana is Tad's bitch.
I think it's more like 8-5.
6-0 here and then the rest is in Eugene or at the Pac-12 tourney.
What's the back story for Tad's dislike of Altman? Is it mutual? I don't follow basketball close enough to know what makes him such a dick. Cliff Notes version?
As long as we make the tourney this time, I'm cool with that!I hope we get to treat them like KSU our last year in the Big-12 this year. A 3 game sweep would make me so happy.

Last night on KOA when Tad was talking about Oregon, and he made me laugh. He DOES NOT like Dana.
He said something to the effect of "That... coaching staff has done a heck of a job putting together a very good team" Did not say Altman's name once.
Haha ya Jacob Pullen. Douchebag.IIRC, after CU beat KSU for the third time that year, their hot shot star still maintained that KSU was "the better team." To his credit, the KSU coach (Martin?) corrected him on that.
1+ (as much as I hate to admit I agree with you)XT's best career game?
Tad goes with who's hot; which is a good thing! Bench was responsible for half the scoring tonight, another good thing. Fletcher was unbelievable: two Scott muffs turned into 4 points and the deflection on that last UO inbound---unreal! You could make a very good case that his efforts won the game.Most interesting thing about this game to me: the crunch time 5 is clear as mud. It's Josh, and then some combination of 4 other guys. Could be a good thing, could be a bad thing. Good job holding serve on the weekend.
Wouldn't have been enough basketballs on the court to satisfy both.Sigh....Dorsey and Hield, what could have been at CU.
THIS. I've heard Tad speak and talked to him directly about this. He doesn't say it outright, but he despises Altman and indicated most of the other Pac-12 coaches hate him as as well. There is some nasty stuff that only the league head coaches know about (but won't outwardly speak about) that has happened/is happening in Eugene. Altman is as dirty as they come.
What's the back story for Tad's and the entire Pac 12's dislike of Altman? Is it mutual? I don't follow basketball close enough to know what makes him such a dick. Cliff Notes version?
Can't be true. His bio says he was an Eagle Scout. He's trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.FIFY. Yeah, Altman is a well-known whiner---all the way back from KSU and Creighton days--- and very shady/rotten on recruitment of transfers.
cu athletics as a whole needs a bit of "mercenery" in it.... uo does what it takes to compete at big boy level
