That's what I don't understand about all this. There were rumors he would be in pads on Monday, then for sure it was Tuesday... now he will be out there today. What's the holdup?

CSU fans need to start calling ICC stat. That's the only thing that will work.
Thomas Coffman WR for CSU is out with abdominal surgery. Don't know if he is a projected starter. I feel for the kid. That can't be fun.
He played 12 games last year as a RS Freshman. He had 8 catches for 210 yards and a TD. Also had one rush for 17 yards.
Glad you brought this up. Gates has finally been cleared and will be at practice tomorrow.

This is why I think their president and other might be rethinking the stadium plan. They have a lot of hype (maybe just from CSU fans and their BFF Phil Steele) but they still can't get butts in the seats?
Their fan base has to show CSU that they will support the team no matter what. That is what will get them a new stadium and Big East invite. Nothing else will.
5% more confident.

I think this is why the Prez decided to wait until October now to make a decision. Wants to see how the first part of the season goes. They come out and look bad they may never build another stadium. How in the world do you hire a new coach from Alabama and a grand total of 250 new season tickets are sold.
Yeah - it has to be a concern. They dropped a ton of cash on Sparkles, they have been pushing a new stadium, they've been getting more press, and positive press as of late, then they've received in years.... yet the season where they need people to really show up, and it isn't happening. It should be a big red flag.
The one thing they have going for them is that their schedule is ridiculously easy. They could conceivably win a bunch of games against awful competition and build up tons of good press and ignite fan passion. The flip side of that is none of those teams are a draw to go to a game at Hughes, and losing to more than a few of them could just deepen the crater they're in.

Their schedule this season:
I see losses at CU, Air Force, Fresno, San Diego, Boise
Potential losses at San Jose, Hawaii, Wyoming, North Dakota State
Wins against UNLV, UNM, Utah State
The conference gets even worse next year when SDSU and Boise leave

yikes, 3 games on TV?
With only 3 games on TV, I bet there ticket sales soar with fans desperate to see them.
I would move Utah State to the "Potential loss" category - those guys are an enigma, but in general I agree with this.
Hawaii I'm actually close to giving CSU a 'should win,' if CSU was the second weekend of a mainland trip for the Warriors I definitely would - but it's the first game after a bye week for Hawaii, so 'potential loss' sounds about right.
Ultimately they could go anywhere from 2-10 to 6-6 and I wouldn't really be surprised.
