sd'sker Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Bill McCartney says Embree was fired so soon because he's black http://sports.yahoo....Y3Rpb25z;_ylv=3 :facepalm: I can't believe he pulled "that" card out that argument helps no one, especially when there is so much evidence that the firing was merit based. first ward churchill, now this. what is it with cu?

Creighton Duke Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Bill McCartney says Embree was fired so soon because he's black http://sports.yahoo....Y3Rpb25z;_ylv=3 :facepalm: I can't believe he pulled "that" card out I'm really interested in what the statute of limitations is for precisely when it becomes a "merit" issue versus a "race" issue. Like, 3 years and 6 wins and it's a merit-based firing? 4 years and 7 wins? In my opinion, these kinds of allegations actually hurt black coaches as a whole because schools probably feel less inclined to hire a black coach if, upon his possible firing, they are labeled as racists.

ShawnWatson Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 They should have fired this guy half way through the season. Good news is his crocodile tears and race card endorsement means he might be able to get a good new gig. Quote Link to comment
CheeseHusker Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 This year's might have been the most inept CU squad I've ever seen. Maybe two years was enough to make their minds up. Quote Link to comment
GM_Tood Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Wow...heard today that this guy is on the short list to replace Embree. Quote Link to comment
suigeneris Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 @KyleRingo: CU AD Mike Bohn on Bobby Petrino rumor from @VicLombardi: "That's absolutely not true. We're not hiring Bobby Petrino. You can quote me." I think they'd be better off with someone like Gary Anderson, anyway. They seem to think that they'll be able to pay their next HC more than $2.5 million with their PAC money. I learned today that even though campus is north of 5,000 feet they don't have a dedicated indoor practice facility. They've been inflating something over their practice field that they call "the bubble," which I assume is the same thing country clubs put over their tennis courts during winter. It wasn't even set up this year because, apparently, the guys who usually do it were helping clean up after Hurricane Sandy. Quote Link to comment
suigeneris Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 CU pulled out all the stops recruiting Clowney: All the best universities--Alabama, Florida, Louisiana State--wrote regularly. Colorado wrote the most, even sent a box of fake money--total pretend value $1 million--with the team's mascot, a Buffalo, in place of the usual picture of a president. http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/eye-on-college-football/23265261/colorado-sent-jadaveon-clowney-1-million-ralphie-bucks They sent a recruit $1 million in Ralphie Bucks. The Harvard of the Rockies, ladies and gentlemen. Quote Link to comment
