HCMM hangs up on radio show

I don't care and I'm a huge fan.
He can hang up on every damn reporter if he wins and keeps running a clean program. When he was losing every game, he couldn't do this, but now I love it.
He is incapable of taking the high road.
For those saying MM shouldn't have gone on his show, he went on Clay's show about a month ago.
It was a rather innocuous question and should be expected for a coach who just had one of the best 1-year turnarounds ever at a P5 program, and Mac should've had a better reaction than hanging up. Not a good look.

God I dislike his personality.
So, the gist of this thread is that Plati is getting blamed because our HC hung up on a known douche bag radio personality when lied about the interview to get MM on?
Hilarious.
MM probably knew what a dbag this guy was and hung up when he smelled the turd. Hell, Plati might have even been sitting next to MM for all we know and suggested he hang up.
Mac's??
Plati
I thought that was a much better interview. He actually asked HCMM questions relevant to HCMM.
No. Plati is only getting blamed for how Plati handled the fallout from something we didn't see as a big deal with continuing actions that have thrown gasoline on a small flame.
Clay Travis (who has a huge audience in SEC land) was trying to get CU's permission to post Plati's email and voicemail. Thankfully, it doesn't seem like that's going to happen. But one of the things Plati allegedly said was something to the effect of, "No one from Colorado or the Pac 12 will ever be on your show again!"
Clay Helton was on Clay Travis' show this morning.

Plati thinks he has way more power than he does. So annoying
If Clay was asked by Plati pre-interview to stay away from those specific questions and completely ignored that request, that is very unprofessional. However, based on his reactionary conversation with his producer after MM hung up, I don't know if that's really the case. He seemed extremely surprised when MM hung up and said, "I hadn't even gotten to asking about his DC leaving for Oregon", as if it was a given that he was going to talk about that.
In all honesty, does anyone truly believe his question was that egregious? He asked the unanimous National COY if he had received any calls or offers about other jobs. What did Mac and Plati think the interview was going to be about? The matchup in the Alamo Bowl? Nobody outside of CU and OSU fans care about that game, let alone Clay Travis and his SEC country followers. IMO, Mac should have handled it better than he did, but something tells me Plati basically forced him to hang up when Clay kept pushing. I think this is on Plati.
Has it occurred to any of you that when he goes on these rants and responses as he did under Marolt, Tharp, Bohn, and now George that his bosses seem to be ok with it?
I'll remind the audience that he was dinged a few years back for misuse of state property (cell phone) or something small. That was as good a chance as any to terminate an unpopular and widely disliked employee. Instead they promoted him in 2005 to Associate Ath Dir supervising Football, Mens Golf, and Skiing. He's not going anywhere.

Sorry for posting in more than one thread....but belongs here.
I've been thinking for 2 days that "Dave sees himself as the Capo of the CU athletic department"... but I didn't want to go there. I'm kind of glad you did.

That whole interview was terrible. What a hack.
Seriously. Imagine if Pitt's HC Pat Narduzzi was on for an interview. Sure, as a national audience we're all interested in Matt Canada getting hired away to LSU as OC and we'd want to hear a scouting report for the Clemson and Penn State bowl games. We're interested in whether Narduzzi was offered other coaching jobs. But... if he goes on there expecting to talk about the wins over Clemson & Penn State, the upcoming Pinstripe Bowl and gaining the signature of Max Browne as his new QB... damn right he has every right to end the interview if none of that is talked about. And no one should blame him. It would be disrespectful to him and his program.
I think you are thinking of Travis Clay.
