  1. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    Ha! I don't get any happiness out of your program's misery. The guy I quoted was mentioning 6 wins per year + an occasional 10 win season as if it would be a step back, but you've averaged 5 wins/season for the last 20 years. I think it's time for the fanbase to get real. Colorado should be in...
  2. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    Well, then, we agree :)
  3. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    That’s understandable, but why do you think the ****ing WR coach of the Dolphins is about to casually change the culture of the last 15 years? You guys SHOULD be competing for and winning conference championships on a yearly basis. I just don’t see a positive result coming here. I feel like this...
  4. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    I’m sorry to be such an asshole, but you guys have 3 winning seasons in the last 15 years. Where is this reluctant 6 wins with the occasional 10 wins coming from?
  5. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    Jesus Christ. I really don’t know what else to say, other than thank you for making my annual trip to Folsom extra cheap. Can’t wait for the $9 Oregon tickets.
  6. College Football News, Rumor & Humor

    I don’t even know how that’s possible. I guess it may be because they don’t have Colorado on their radar. The game I went to was Georgia vs South Carolina; I was there because my roommate was from Georgia and his girlfriend went to UGA. The aforementioned beer cans I was talking about were...
  7. College Football News, Rumor & Humor

    We (Clemson fans) would much have preferred to have a home & home but unfortunately it’s asking too much on such short notice. Georgia isn’t going to just give us an extra home game and everyone had a full slate of games booked in other years, so the only logical choice was to schedule a single...
  8. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    I think it's fair to say a head coach w/experience has a better shot of bringing in good assistants, but it's not impossible for a new guy to do it. The biggest problem I see, whether it's Chev or a new coach, is that this is so late in the cycle to bring in a bunch of new assistants with < 1...
  9. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    I suppose it's because I don't see that as the worst scenario. None of the "myriad of other options" seem like a better long term move at this time. Right but you're not going to surround the other candidates I've seen with great assistants either. I think Colorado is going to have to do a...
  10. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    Maybe, maybe not. But where's the better option? So many people keep talking about hiring some middling coach and then try to qualify the idea by saying "and surround him with great assistants and recruiters". Where are those assistants/recruiters going to come from? And are they going to...
  11. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    Unless they're going with Mel, where are they going to go at this point? If you hire a coach at this point in the game, what are the odds he'll even retain the assistant coaches? I think ahoolsken's post below also helps. I think that's a great idea...give runway for things to keep rolling...
  12. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    Understood, but why not give him a trial run? Don't tell him "this is it", tell him "here's your chance". For all you know, he does halfway decent and could be a long term solution. I think the results of the search show how difficult it is to hire a coach this late in the cycle...even...
  13. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    Is there a reason everyone is so gung ho on not just letting Chiaverini coach the team next season?
  14. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    He's got some decent momentum at Virginia and Charlottesville is a beautiful area as well. However it's not all roses...Virginia is a very fertile area for talent but he's not doing great on the recruiting trail (2019: 39th, 2020: 48th, 2021: 42nd so far) and I think as a native...
  15. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    That is more realistic IMO, but I think it would be a post-2020 regular season move; I'd be shocked if Elliott were to move at this point in the game. Our co-offensive coordinator just left for the South Florida job which resulted in the BOT approving a new salary to make Elliott the highest...
  16. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    True, and I wouldn't be surprised if Colorado could double his salary (Currently making ~$2.3 million/yr) but I think it'd take a serious commitment from the school to getting top-level assistants, too (probably an increase in 50-75% salary). Do you think Colorado would be willing to make a...
  17. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    I'm doubtful, but I'm also biased. Why would Venables leave at this point? - Both of his sons are on the roster, one being a redshirt sophomore and the other an incoming true freshman. - Clemson just pulled one of the all-time great defensive recruiting classes this past year (3 5-stars, 7...
  18. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    If this were a normal situation I'd agree with you, but this is far from normal and I don't think you're going to get stability right now regardless of what you do. It's not common for a head coach to bail right after Signing Day so I'd almost treat this as if it's a mid season departure...
  19. Karl Dorrell officially named Colorado HC

    It's an ideal chance for a one year trial, at least. As a Clemson fan, I can attest to the fact that sometimes these situations can work out (Dabo was our WR coach & assistant head coach when Tommy Bowden was fired mid-season). Also, at this point in the cycle it may be your best shot...it's...
