At a lesser power school such as Colorado, he's already there.

At USF he has to turn around a program against stiff competition and sustain it for a few years to get a P5 gig that is not likely to be better than Colorado anyway.

If he went to USF and managed to win he was not going to get a better job. So might as well get his foot in the P5 door now.

Of course he would. If he turned USF around he would get the next SEC, B12, ACC gig that came available. He will get the same opportunity if he turns Colorado around. The point is, that is probably a more difficult turnaround in reality.

I think it's a bad fit. But he was obviously tired of butting his head against walls for resources and exposure. That would continue at USF. I believe he really wanted that USF gig, but they couldn't come up with the money to expedite the new stadium and pay his staff what he wants to pay them.

He’s played against the Broncos. He probably remembers what it’s like.

I don’t know. If a consistent winner can be built in Boise Idaho, Boulder Colorado seems a tad easier. Lest we forget, the Buffs were voted a share of the national championship in the modern era.

Now that it’s official Prime is gone and Jackson State returns…to normal for JSU, when do they make the call to beg back into the classic game? Would you take them back if you ran the classic?

To my understanding they really hadn’t left contractually. It makes sense geographically and rivalry wise. JSU will not be turned away by the classic organizers. And I think Sanders was wrong for trying to end their involvement when he knew his goal was not to be there long term.

JSU attorney sent legal notice of their intent to cancel the contract.

Intent, but I don’t think it was actually settled.

Let's not forget they are 47-95 since they joined the PAC12.

He dominated at Boise State, got hired by Colorado, and stunk it up there. 53-11 at BSU then 19-39 at Colorado. I knew he did bad at Colorado, but didn't know the records. I had to look those up.

Heck I think Cincinnati would have been a better job than Colorado. People under estimate how hard it is for those schools in the middle of nowhere to sustain succes without natural rivals and pipelines. It's the worst rebuild job in the p5.

The administration failed by not seeing what was out there. If FAU could get Tom Herman, it would have done no harm to see what we could have gotten. Hopefully Coach Penny can save us.

Lest we forget the Tigers were pretty bad for awhile before Fuente was hired. Things can change. Did you not think the Tigers could improve with right hire? Or is it just that you think Colorado is cursed to never be good again?

Funny you made that comparison. Ever heard of Dan Hawkins ?

Yep. I’ve heard of him. Can you elaborate?

He dominated at Boise State, got hired by Colorado, and stunk it up there. 53-11 at BSU then 19-39 at Colorado. I knew he did bad at Colorado, but didn't know the records. I had to look those up.

Thanks for explaining. I had no idea the point the previous poster was trying to make.
