It's a great idea if it's sustainable. How long can we do this? It would take everybody getting on board with one plan unfortunately we have a whole bunch of RTGDF people combined with people that think we can be Alabama. I just hope Lebby can make us competitive again... that's all I want. Anything else would be gravy.
This is completely false. Anyone who doubts this can just look at arkansas depth chart. You sound like Coach34
On the arkansas depth chart for all starters and 2 deep meaning 2 deep or Ties:
Oh for sure. You might be the 2010's Alabama of arguing to argue, but he's the 2000's New England Patriots.
What do you mean Colorado "might win 6" this year? They're currently 4-1 with 5 unranked teams still left on their schedule. They "might win" 10 or even more games. They "might win" enough to get to the Playoffs.
They'll be underdogs in 4 of their last 7 games and the other ones will be very close to a pick em.
This "rebuild" business is a figment of the former era, where you were generally stuck with the evaluations you made of high school kids, for the next 4-5 years. It doesn't work that way anymore. And even back then, you had JUCOs, transfers who had to sit a year, and graduate transfers.
yes it’s embarrassing to be sitting here 2-10 when our last two portal classes have not brought in an sec quality player unless you count an injury prone shapens 3 game career at MSU.
6-6 was always very unlikely and I tried to tell people that all summer. But 4-8 damn sure should have been very achievable. Combination of 3 coaches in 3 years (inept hire by Keenum), and Lebby not impressing at all so far.
Yeah I think I thought similar to you going in. Lebby hasnt impressed me one bit as well.
The Arnett fiasco pretty much burned the program down, making the Lebby hire a really crucial one. if he doesn’t have a really good portal class I’m not seeing much light at the end of the tunnel.
I'm not going to "bet" with an anonymous Internet person, but FPI favors Colorado in 5 of their 7 remaining games and both of the other 2 they still have a 47.7% chance. Anything could happen, but you're kind of going out on a limb to say they might finish as high as 2-5 on that schedule (implying you think they'll probably be worse).
Depends on how bad Lebby is. You've got to be pretty freaking awful to fire after one season. As bad of a hire as Arnett was, firing him after just one year was probably a mistake. Same with Lebby. Jury still out on him a little, but unless he loses out, he needs to get another year. He won't lose out. But assuming he did, at that point I would definitely rather have 4 coaches in 4 years than a 1-11 coach who couldn't beat freaking UMass.
I'd rather have 4 coaches in 4 years than giving a coach we know sucks an extra year. Hopefully Lebby gives us something in the second half of this year that makes me reconsider whether he sucks.
ok so i said they may win 6... and you say they may win 10 or go to the playoffs and you're read is more correct if they finish 8-4.... OK pal.
I think youve probably gotta give him a second year regardless. But i get what youre saying. At some point the program needs a little stability.
There should have been an agreement in place at the time that we hired him. No current staff is fired, unless it's like something for cause or whatever. This is a semi-interim situation, and we will evaluate after 2023. This would have kept Arnett's ego in check.
They should have just left him as interim. Wouldnt have been the worst scenario in the world given the situation of our head coach dying.
Ellis got canned for going 0-12, but notice......he did not have an FCS team on that schedule.
I do agree, Arnett should have got year 2, unless we had some sort of insight we were going to hire a ringer. Lebby isnt a ringer.
