Speaking of Tulsa...how's their new MBB coach working out? :icon_roll:
Turns out when you can't schedule a dozen NAIA teams your record isn't quite as spotless.Quote:

Sanders was built for this time in CFB. NIL and the portal could get UC back to relevance pretty quick.
And if not, what have they lost? They’re still irrelevant and out an amount they can easily raise?
I think it can probably work in the sense of not just being an automatic train wreck (although that's also certainly on the table). 8-5 with some smart scheduling (smarter than next year when I think they come to TCU and maybe play Nebraska). Knock off one of the Utah/Washington/Oregon powers here and there. Go to some bowl games. All of that is possible, and it's all better than where they're at.Quote:

And a 5 star here and there isn't going to give you the same kind of talent advantage in the Pac-?? that it gave you in the SWAC.
Sure. He had a lot of success recruiting to Jackson State. Gotta be easier to recruit to Colorado right?Quote:

Since you brought up politics, you have to be proud of your president, right?Quote:
