RogueDuck Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Helfrich to CU? That would be funny. Harsin would be solid, but his issue is he rubs people the wrong way. He wanted the UO job badly, but his personality prevented the big donors from signing off on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glduck Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 agreed on harsin’s personality, and CU has been burned by the boise pipeline in the past. i was under the impression that helfrich’s body of work in boulder didn’t endear him to anybody so i’d be surprised if one successful year as an nfl coordinator would fix his dubious college resume. tedford seems like the easy choice, if they do indeed desire previous HC experience.

Former Boise coaches have worked great at CU, I am sure the fans would be pumped to go that way again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

win2bfree Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Is CU big enough a lure for Tedford to leave his Alma Mater? Fresno looks to be better positioned for success. Depends on the $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAC MAN Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 WVU HC's name is coming up in the CU coaching search according to ESPN's sources. Buyout would be only 1-3 million at this point and CU's AD budget is around the $100M mark so I don't think money is as big of a concern at this point. Some sources are talking some NFL coaches. It was time for a change and CU is not going to regret making the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a win/win He would be trading a top 3-4 program in MWC for a bottom 3-4 PAC 12, which would mean he would eventually be fired if he doesn't find lightning in a bottle. Might as well just wait and see if something better (USC?) comes open while his stock is high rather than going someplace that would more than likely lower it.

Fresno was pretty terrible before he got there with the exception of David Carr’s last year with Deyruter. I think the plan would be to rebuild but CU has a much high ceiling. Ovbiously if a better job like USC came calling, that’s different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CU has much better student athlete support when it comes to academics thanks to the Champions Center compared to the past. But there would be scrutiny in that case.

They are about to embark on a $300M rebuild/renovation of the football stadium and they are aiming for a B1G invite. To pull this off while football is in the pits, you go big time.

PAC MAN Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 It was just time for MacIntyre to go but CU fans will have positive things to say about him unlike Dan Hawkins. MacIntyre got CU to a competitive level and that 2016 run was fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
