CU officially hires Mel Tucker as new Head Football Coach

I like it, I was referring to MM never gave Matt the time of day. As far as I can recall.

I'm glad that HCMT took the O to pay him a visit.
Patently false. They had a good relationship. I've known McC since he played at Niwot btw. Lots of other D1 players over time. Hauck was a Barnett signing who told Hawkins no thanks. TE at Northwestern right now named Oelsner. They were really good around 2003-4 with Clint Stapp at QB (Montana) and a LB who went to Ga Tech, another LB who played at CSU. Later Tyler Strong was a 3.5 year starter (OL) at Wyoming after turning Hawkins and the Nubs down.... Among others
 
With 12 game schedules and conference championship games I'll be a little disappointed in the MT era if we aren't in that 87 or better neighborhood in the 2020s. That'll probably be the last decade before the world goes full on Mad Max. Let's go out in style!



Hard to fathom how USC could only win 68 games in the '90s.

Is anyone planning on going to the CU next event at the downtown Denver Sheraton to hear Tuck speak? Apparently they are doing a Q&A with him. Never been to one of these events so I’m curious

He went to Niwot High of all places. Might legit be the one and only D-1 football player to ever come out of Niwot.

Well, aside from Scott Lockwood, who literally lived right next to Niwot High, but somehow ended up at Fairview... 15 miles away.

esp Niwot HS back then......was farm community, class 2A? sometimes Niwot might have a wrestler who was tough....make a little noise....get a mention in the Camera or Post or RMN.

these days, Niwot High probably has a pretty good golf and tennis teams.
 
in that list of decade wins.....USC's 93 in the 70's is pretty gaudy. given how few games they played back then compared to now. i think John McKay is a really underrated college coach....if that's possible. got NC's. lotta hardware.

you don't hear McKays' name with Bear or Devaney or Royal......as whatever. guy won 3 NC's and sort of 4 (without the new cheating by everyone).....in 15 years. pretty strong. 9 consensus top 10 seasons in 15 years at USC.

Thank god we’re almost done with the 2010’s. It’s been rough guys.
 
You mean wins and losses matter in P5 college football? Who knew?
Being a nice guy apparently is worth $10m if the employer asks to part ways when you don’t win, even after holding up a picture of a buffalo trudging through snow. I mean if that doesn’t get results, I’m all out of ideas.

I’m in the wrong field.
