channelling any sec fan: NO. that CANNOT be correct. if he MEANT the sec, he would have side he wanted a coach from the BEST, TOUGHEST, GREATEST, HARDEST, AND ONLY MEANINGFUL conference in the world!
Probably not.So, if Mac were the guy, wouldn't he have been named already?
Mac has been campaigning for the job for the better part of the last six months. Bohn has said he's a viable, serious candidate. A Mac hire is a safe hire. Nobody is going to criticize Bohn for hiring Mac, but they certainly would if he were to hire somebody else who ultimately failed. The kicker for me is the pic we saw of Mac at the Valor/Ponderosa game a few weeks ago. What's he doing there? Well, it would seem obvious that he's there to connect with Berglund and/or Vickers. We get info yesterday that Berglund is 100% committed to CU still.
Coincidence? I don't believe in coincidences. At least not when it comes to this kind of thing. I suspect Berglund has been given some indication that Mac is the guy, which led him to re-affirming his commitment.
I have absolutely no inside information. I'm just reading the tea leaves and coming to a conclusion based on what I'm seeing. I suppose I could be wrong. It's happened once or twice before on rare occassions.
OK, I'll buy that premise. Because, as the ladies say, "DBT is easy."Probably not.
If he were named now, he would have to coach the last three games with the existing coaching staff, running the existing "offense", etc. Then he would probably let most of the staff go after the nub game. Waiting until the season is over, and letting Cabral act as IHC, lets Mac work behind the scenes to put together a staff. Plus, an after the season announcement would put all of the spotlight on Mac rather than share it with 3 games left to play.

i prefer the term he-shes.

Duh. :lol::lol:
:rofl: Eventually Jimmy will find a way.
Exactly.. We hire Mac I think its a bad hire.. What is this 1990? I'd support him but I think its the wrong move for the football program.

Agreed. I feel outnumbered on here for thinking this way but I seem to remember laughing at KSU for bringing back their "glory days" coach & he was only away from the game for a couple of years.
Kids in their 20s (nevermind their teens) have little knowledge of who Coach Mac is unless their parents are/were CU fans or if their parents followed the Promise Keepers organization. 1990 was before any kid we're recruiting was born - I just can't imagine continuously selling a program based on something that happened 20+ years ago.
I don't know if Mac would be the right guy or not. But to argue that 18 year old kids don't know who he is wouldn't buy into Mac is a bad argument. I'll guarantee you that if Mac walked into some kid's home and the kid had never heard of him, within 10 minutes, Mac would have the kid enthralled.
