I think two quotes in today's news cycle exemplify why Juicebox needs to go, and why CU is failing right now. It's been said ad nauseum, but good coaches mold their system to the talent, they don't try to force their talent into a system.
If our receivers, or linemen or QB or any position for that matter, has talent sitting on the bench for the sake of the system, the coaches are doing something wrong.

But Dennis Simmons can't keep quiet anymore. He's on the phone in the football offices at Texas Tech, angry about a reputation gone sour. The receivers coach wants to tell a story. It's about Crabtree's freshman year, and the young receiver was so smooth, so perfect, that the Red Raiders drew up plans for him to figure heavily in their offense.

Houston signed 11 Rivals.com three- or four-star prospects -- one more than in its previous three classes combined -- and Sumlin has not waited to put his young talent on the field. This year's squad includes nine starters recruited in the past two classes, most notably sophomore running back Bryce Beall, a 1,247-yard rusher last season who caught the go-ahead touchdown against Oklahoma State. Remarkably, five of the top eight defensive linemen are true freshmen, including starting end Zeke Riser.
