Prime doesn't care about culture but the culture that has spontaneously formed is good?
haters gonna hate. we bowl this year, and the hate will go nuclear. i don't give a **** what they say about culture, fights, or any ****ing thing else. they aren't here. we are.
beat tcu and watch all these ****ers lose their ****ing minds. camp seems to be going good-- almost time.

with you and who else?
Fair take, but let’s be honest here. Fauria got here because of daddy, Olsen absolutely never should’ve been offered in the first place, and what I’ve been told is the 2 month transfer rental flashed an absolutely sh!t attitude. He’s working with a transfer and 2 walkons. Give him a year.
Your uncle says hi too.
I knew one guy, die hard CU fan. Befriended him 5 years after that game. Said after “The Catch” the sliver of CU fans in attendance went crazy; passed Chip around crowd surfing etc. Then the CU contingent realized almost none of the U of M fans left; they were frozen, shocked at what happened. Being on the wrong side of a miracle play. That’s the way he told it.
I had to work that day, barely made it home to watch the last 4 minutes of the game. Lost my sh!t after the Hail Mary and ran around an open field outside my condo freaking out.
Someone on campus that year made a “bootleg” white/gold/black NO FEAR tee shirt that read something like:
64 yards to go
6 seconds left
NO FEAR
With a football field on it. One of the coolest CU shirts I’d ever seen.

From personal experience and anecdotally, BOB is as straight of a shooter as they come. If he starts to say a lot of positive things about the O-line.... watch out.
Throwing O’Boyle out there makes more sense.
I was on the CU sideline. (Hanger-on, not player). Most amazing thing I've ever seen.
I think the human memory registers intensity. The three things I absolutely remember in detail personally, as though they happened yesterday, are the Westbrook catch, the JFK shooting, and 9-11. The human brain is a puzzler.
Why not. There’s nothing the NCAA can actually do. They can’t enforce their penalties, the schools follow them because that’s the way it’s always been. They can’t stop CU from playing games. They have no say over bowls or the post season. They can vacate the records in their record book, whoopdie do, the real outcome of the games/season are what will be remembered. We need to follow the basketball penalty school of thought and tell the NCAA to **** off and ignore them, we’ll self enforce a couple of fewer official visits.
Don't worry since next week we will be able to say it is game week next week.
I think he and Sal get replaced next year with young stud recruiters. They were teachers to fill in now
I will be super interested to see in the off season if Coach Prime is as ruthless with his staff as he is with roster management.
O'Boyle Rules!
Fauria and Olsen were legit P5 recruits. What do you mean Olsen should never have been offered?
But ignoring that, we brought in heaps of safeties, corners, running backs, OLinemen, etc.
And we brought in one TE with a bad attitude? And then we recruited a bunch of transfers to replace him and got zilch.
Look - we will see how this goes, but on paper, with no bias, it doesn't stand up to the standard being set here. You make your own luck, and what I see on paper is that the TE coach signed one guy, who had a bad attitude and didn't last but a few months. Did I miss anything?
Can personally confirm Olsen was a bad take. Heart was never in it to the level you’d need for P5.

If all positions are good except TE where we are lacking in skill AND depth, I'll take it. Would it be better if the TE room was good? Sure, but in this offense it's not needed.
I seriously doubt at the end of the season we will be looking back and crying about our lack of star tight-ends.
However, If things don't improve for the 2024 season after preps and transfers, then we can start wondering if Brewster needs to be replaced. At this point, its just not worth getting worried about.

Can we replace "fight" with "shake hands"?
TE can be the difference in an offensive scheme when you don't have a great QB. The TE is a major blocking contributor and can be the safety outlet for a weaker QB.
When you have a great QB, you can roll out an extra WR....
The best TE in the NFL is really just a big receiver most of the time. I believe Kelce's blocks about 1/3 of his snaps.
(sorry... I know you Broncos fans disluke him)
oy... you just found the second biggest hippee in my family.... I am starting to wonder about you....
and that would be believable since he lives in Jedediah National Forest.

Man, typically fall camps have been easy to stay on top of - the roster was familiar by now, little to no coverage, etc. This year has been crazy with new coaches, new roster, an explosion of YT channels. Not to mention that I’ve been busier than in past late July/August.
Have you looked at any tapes of Sean Lewis's past offense? He runs far more spread, with 3wr with 2 backs or 4 wr's.
TE is the least important position in a SL offense.
And with our skill at back, wr, and QB, I don't believe anyone will be considering us one dimensional because we don't have a good te, or even not have a TE on the field at all.
