that tape was only 5 minutes and i think i need a smoke and a nap.
sweet Buffalo dreams!!
Loved the interview.
Very minor complaint. The Buffs logo things on the mics are showing wear. That looks bush league. The video people need to get it together.
Reminder
Proof, then pay.
104.3 coming back on air with the CU fight song as the lead-in. I love it. Didn't know they had that soundbite.

Cites recruiting grounds as Colorado then Texas Cali Louisiana Jayhawk league and then nationally “like Florida, Georgia” in that order.
Hasn't even mentioned Austria...
I loved his response to the suggestion that it's going to be hard to recruit where it's hard to be familiar with the Pac-12 because the games are on so late.
(paraphrasing) "We will not put any self-imposed limitations on ourselves."

Will be heavily involved in the defense but will make decision on who calls defense when he has DC. Will evaluate current staff and make a decision in “short order...only fair to everyone involved to move quickly”
“If you can close, you can win.”

The recruiting lesson he learned from Jim Tressel -- "If you see a player you don't think we can beat Michigan with, we don't want him."
Said that identifying he great players is easy. It's the marketing and building of the relationship that makes the difference.
Then he said, "If you can close, you can win."

Lol what time does DMac think high school kids go to bed? They all stream the games on their computer, they're not exactly hung up on which cable package their parents have. Bigger issue is local pressure to stay home in SEC and Big 10 country, I'd think.
Alright, I've tried to measured. Wanted to hear more, listen to the man, read more about the people who know him; before making a decision.
This is a ****ing great hire. I am stoked.

"We're in Colorado, we follow the Broncos here" LOL
A no-excuses guy, you gotta love it.
I like this hire. Anxious to see:
1) how he leads
2) culture instillation
3) who he keeps
4) SC, OL and OC
Then, of course, recruiting.
6.5/10 with plenty of upside based on above.
Even I have high hopes today. I just want good ball back in Boulder.
You could literally see how confused he was when DMac asked him if he had any kids who were looking to play QB or WR in college.
(He doesn't, youngest play some OL, but mostly lacrosse in 9th grade, his oldest is a HS junior who is mostly into soccer).

Rick George on to announce a new football coach, let's make it an interview about bringing baseball back to CU.
Mel Tucker on with an interview you got ahead of the press conference, let's ask him about whether he has sons who play football (which Al needed to explain the reference to Mel about) and then talk about the Broncos.
It's so bad that I am astounded.
