Horrible decision

TERRIBLE decision. It’s like that time ECU fired their coach for a few down years. Colorado is NOT allowed to be that choosy.

Every program isn't a national championship contender. The sooner they realize that the better.

Haha That started last week and USC fans are 100% certain Dino is going there

Oregon State and Washington State games were the final nails in the coffin. His press conference yesterday poured the dirt over it. He lost the respect of almost everyone yesterday. 0-9 in bowl clinching games and being outscored 82-10 in the second half of the last 3 home games. Dug the team out of a hole, but in year 6 this team has regressed. 5 out of 6 seasons with last place finishes in the Pac12 South. I am not sure there are any places that would accept those numbers and decide to keep someone. 2016 was an anomaly and nothing else.

What the heck did he say in his press conference? I'm interested to hear with the understanding it will take a pretty bizarre press conference to wow this board as we've seen our share over the years.

Lol I don’t think any of those HCs would even consider Colorado. Maybe Helfich but that’s it.

Outside of Wells and Bieniemy that list is a joke

Pretty funny, but you don't have to look to hard to see people suggesting Babers for the job.

In a nutshell said "I turned down 3 big jobs to stay here so I feel am here no matter what." Then a remark of no one can win here, injury excuses, remarks of the AD and fans. Obviously someone that felt backed into a corner.

Bieniemy will not be coach. He refuses to come back to Boulder for anything after his OC stint here.

Tedford is not a bad choice. Things got stale at Cal but he had quite a bit of success there. And he's killing it at Fresno. He's 57 and not getting younger. If he wants back into the P5 club, this might be his last chance.

I was honestly hoping he’d whipped out The Little Engine That Could and started reading from it.

I think his copy is titled "The Little Coach That Can't"

He is not a bad choice for Colorado but Colorado is a bad choice for him. If I were Tedford as rebuild would not be appealing.

Eric Bieniemy. As a kid, thought that was a super-cool name.

I'll let the University, players, and fans know that last place finishes, 6 conference wins in 5 seasons outside of 2016, and blowing 28 point leads in the 2nd half at home to the worst road P5 team in the country are all perfectly acceptable and to stop being such spoiled little snots.

That Oregon State loss was a dagger.
