Currently 3-3 with wins over two horrible's in PU and MU and FCS UTM.

Losses to UH, USF and lowly UConn.

With ECU@UC and UCF we have a chance.

I see no chance with Memphis@UC, Tulsa, BYU@UC or Temple.

I am seeing 5-7 to 3-9 and likely a 4-8.

This is no surprise to me so before the season I scheduled trips that would conflict with an AAC Championship Game and with any decent bowl.

By year 4 TT now has almost all his own players. The trend line is down badly. It is time for a new director

7-5. Wins over ECU, Memphis, Temple and Tulsa. Losses to UCF, and BYU.

I predicted 3-9 to start the season and I stand by it.

6-6, though if the staff moves to Gunner sooner rather than later I think they could actually run the table.

I'm going to go with 6-6. There are no sure wins left and I think BYU and Memphis are likely losses, but I think the ball may bounce in our favor a couple times to seal three more wins.

I guess we'll find out.

All 6 of our final games are games we can win or lose. I honestly have no idea. I'll say 1-5 worst-case scenario, 4-2 best. I would be shocked if we finished outside of that. If they go with Gunner from here out, I'll say 3-3.

4-8...final record, plus Tuberville and cast keeps their jobs. That's my prediction. Bohn and our wonderful interim President with do nothing, because of the financial implications as well as Bohn's history at CU, being cellar dwellers when the Buffs were previously a perennial powerhouse (sort of).

Colorado hadn't been a powerhouse since the mid 90s-- which was a decade before Bohn got there. Bohn was hired at CU after the previous AD, coach and president all resigned following rape and recruiting scandals (10 women came forward with rape allegations and there were numerous claims of offering recruits hookers, strippers and booze on visits).

He made three hires while he was there-- Dan Hawkins, from Boise State; Jon Embree, a former player at CU; and Mike MacIntyre, from San Jose State. I don't think anyone would have faulted his decision to hire Hawkins. He was the hot coach of the day. Embree was forced on him by the boosters who wanted a Colorado guy to run the program. MacIntyre looks to have turned things around a bit in Colorado. They are not a powerhouse, but he currently has them in 1st in their division of the PAC12.

I will wait to see who he hires before judging the pick.

He also hired Tad Boyle on the basketball side in 2010. Boyle has led them to 4 NCAA appearances, 1 NIT appearance and a PAC12 Tournament title in 6 years. Considering they had only 2 NCAA appearances since 1969 before he was hired, I'd say that has worked out quite well for the Buffs.
