That's a good way to put it. And that's kind of what makes college ball.

Plenty of Buff fans still wandering around downtown San Antonio. Good showing by the fan base.
What was the deal with that play where Gillam looked like he got hammered on a pick? Was the ball in the air? MM went bananas.

I'm going to make Uncle Ken drive the entire 14.5 hours back
Wow. I feel sorry for you. It must be tough being a fan if you're this negative, wish for more bad things to happen, and don't seem able to find joy in it.

The ball was caught at the line of scrimmage (or behind) so you can block downfield. That was what was explained to me.
GB makes a great point with that. And this ties in with what I have said in other threads about staff upgrades and a larger budget. Taking Leavitt out of the equation, there is no one on the staff who has the experience and current performance that would make us say that he could be slotted in as an interim HC if MacIntyre was down with pneumonia for a couple weeks. I think Chev is on that path, but he's not there yet. And there's no one like how Cabral was either who maybe isn't a long-term HC option but the players would rally for while having the respect of the staff so that they'd all fall into line under him. We need that.
Damn, it's mine? Didn't know that lol.My timeline was destroyed by CSU hottakes all evening and morning. I don't need them on luke's allbuffs website.
It was a close one. It looked like it was at least at the LOS, maybe over.
I think Mtn just made that up.

I think your post is excellent evidence that your premise is completely false. Sefo is constantly praised on this board and any criticism of him whatsoever is met with rather extreme responses and personal attacks. There is some presumption that the guy is a saint (this may or may not be true; I've never understood sports fans who insist on praising/criticizing the character of individuals that they don't know personally) and that he needs to be protected from detractors.
I don't see any "hate". I see quite a lot of character worshipping. Discussion of his shortcomings is effectively a forbidden topic here.
OK. It seems stupid to me to overly criticize a staff that went from worst to first. Is there room for improvement? Sure. Legitimate criticisms, absolutely. But whatever the state of the P12, CU won their division, if you as a fan cannot be happy about that, life must be really hard for you.
2016 is over. Focus forward.
He needs to gain control of the narrative. Bernardi retires tomorrow. Lindgren gone Sunday. Chiv promoted. Color given to DC plans. Outlook for off season, S/C program and Spring.
Lead MM, lead.
- Recruit, recruit, recruit
- Enhance assistant salary pool.
- Restructure staff
- Decide on nature of extension (or not)

There has been plenty of criticism leveled at Sefo throughout his career on this board. Someone else summed it up nicely along the lines of "Sefo won't go down as the most talented quarterback to ever play for CU, but he will go down as one of the greatest Buff warriors."
Nothing should change in the approach to Mac's extension and raise, IMO. Show the love that he deserves for getting this program back to respectability by giving him a multi-year extension with a nice raise to put him in the middle of the PAC, but show even more love by giving him the resources necessary to continue building the program with quality assistants.
Fair points. Maybe it has been discussed here before, but why has MM not already been extended?

You and me both. Ugh.
I believe RG has stated that they don't do business like that during the season. I also believe they thought there was a good chance leavitt was leaving, and they needed to see exactly how much money they were going to need for the entire staff.
Stated as much a few post later. Have no idea who he is but he sounds like AZ or one of his minions. Certainly not an actual Buff fan.
I am certain that AZ has at least a couple of socks here and that he is still upset that he went from the official leak to being a nobody. Interesting that somebody would call for firing a guy who just won most of the major Coach of the Year awards in college football.
OK, who are you, really?

If the objective is to keep MM, then its critical to pay him the going market rate.
Cellar dwelling programs from all over the country might be making offers for MacIntyre's turn-around services.
CU should try to match any bonafide deals that are coming across MacIntyre's agent's desk. If those offers are too spendy, then it's time to find someone else that CU can afford.
