Whoosh.
But the main point stands - It’s impossible to spell Mel without putting “me” first.

Mel Tucker leaves CU for Michigan State
- Thread starter ElCunado
- Start date
Whoosh.
But the main point stands - It’s impossible to spell Mel without putting “me” first.
Nuke the stadium from orbit, its the only way to be sure
I listened to Denver sports radio for most of the day, and the ONLY guy who truly knew about Colorado football was James Merilat, who ordinarily irritates me(get off my lawn). Even Nicki, who is probably the best reporter in the market, said tucker signed 'about 20' guys on February 6.
tucker should be banned from using the word Integrity.

Well we prematurely believed a coach would do the right thing. Silly us. Even by the standards of today this is a really cheap shot wrapped in outright treachery and deceit. What kind of a sociopath lies to everyone around him with such a straight face?
shame on tucker. He mislead a bunch of kids who trusted him. He mislead their families. And he out right lied to fans, boosters, and coworkers. Repeatedly.
it is dishonorable and it will stain whatever career he has. Forever.
going to be interesting looking a new set of recruits in the eye and asking them for trust— he’s shown who he is.
karma has a magic way of dealing with these things.

We are Sisyphus. Existence is struggle.I said I was going to take a break from CU football, but here I am, back again like a battered wife, knowing CU football will kick me in the dick again, probably soon.
We are the FROG and T(f)ucker was the SCORPION, and the Scorpion is always a Scorpion and must sting.
We just started to cross the river and he stung us, but instead of dying with us, he jumped on a white jet to the ****hole that is East Lansing!
Good Bye Scorpion, we will come back to life without you
He's definitely given some opposing coaches a cudgel to use against him on the recruiting trail.

Sources told ESPN that Tucker went to the Colorado facility Wednesday morning and wanted to address the team before departing for Michigan State but was informed he could not do so. Athletic director Rick George said at a news conference Wednesday that Tucker did not address the team before resigning.
He handled this whole thing very poorly, but I don't blame anyone for going anywhere if they DOUBLE your salary. We'd all do it ... don't kid yourself. Plus MSU isn't anything close to the rebuild CU is in the middle of.
BUT ... I absolutely love the fact that they barred his ass from talking to the team. I'd like to think it went something like this from RG: "sorry, mother****er, you said all you need to say to these kids ... pack your **** and get the **** out."

No we all wouldn’t, especially when your job is teaching kids.
What does integrity-filled mean? stupid mother****er not only lacks integrity, but struggles with the language.
Tucker is going to earn the kind of money next year that we were hoping to pay after years of excellent performance. Let that sink in.
Awesome. The only way that gets better is if when Tucker turned to leave, RG gave him a wedgie.
Doing well. I never expected him to stay. I predicted MSU would come back hard. They did. He left. I would have too. Onward.
Critical time for CU, and the P12. The rebuke is stunning.
The Pac 12 is the ACC, with Oregon being Clemson Lite.
Heh.
The negative recruiting that he will face from this day forward will be freakish and brutal. Every single coach that’s recruiting against him will show him the tweets, the interviews, the public statements about staying at CU and then ask whether the player can trust a single word that comes out of Ticker’s mouth.
Yes, different scenario, but allowing Jon Embree to speak after his firing was not a good thing and did not go well at all.

To the "We would all do it" crowd:
90-95% would change jobs to double their salary.
50-60% would do above if it meant moving from CO to East Lansing, Michigan
20-30% would do above if it meant letting down 25-50 kids for which you made promises to them and their families.
<5% would parade around on public radio telling lies knowing they had one foot out the door.
He's in the bottom 5%. Not a good day when you do something you will have to apologize for to your grave.

This is what class looks like. Mad respect for RG today. He protected and projected a CU I am proud of.
