I need to amend this post.
Colorado should fire Sanders TODAY, and offer Jimbo Fisher a $100 million 8-year contract.
Cheer, buy tickets, attend the games - whatever. BOTTOM LINE, Matt Rhule will be fired within the next five years.

Just saying, wouldn't have this group of players if Frost is still coaching. Casey Thompson and Torres wouldn't have left, Haarberg would still be a tight end, Sims and his issues wouldn't be here, and a number of the transferred wide receivers still would.
Rhule brought in a transition recruiting class and did the best he could. But you call plays that fit your personnel especially when the game is on the line. THAT IS ON SATTERFIELD. The quarterbacks all seem to be getting worse. THAT IS ON SATTERFIELD. Sims was his handpicked starter and that was made clear to Casey Thompson. THAT IS ON SATTERFIELD.
You think he needs more time and want to see what he can do with his players fine. I don't agree, but can accept that is your opinion. Your absolute absolving him of any of this mess being his fault though is borderline nuts. Maximizing talent is what coaches are paid to do. Not only is he not doing that, but he is putting them in position to fail by calling his offense regardless of the personnel on hand.
His play calling is this kind stupid. Hey guys, Tommy Frazier is out for the season, Brook Berringer got his lungs deflated. We're rolling with Matt Turman, and everyone expects him to primarily hand off to the running back, so instead, we are going to have him pass it every other down and sometimes two downs in a row, and focus on only him running the ball and using Phillips and Green primarily as decoys and occasional pass catchers. Great plan!

Do you want me to walk you through all the differences between Tom Osborne's national championship team in his 22nd season as head coach, and inheriting a 4-8 dumpster fire of a team with tenuous personnel and no offensive identity of any kind?

Are you daft or intentionally missing the point. Every time an offense has struggled under Callahan, under Pleini, under Solich, Frost, and even Riley. The coordinator had gone back, simplified the offense, identified the plays that worked best, prioritized those plays, developed a system around those plays and and boom, like magic the offense got better. It's almost like they realized the team they had wasn't capable of running the full system and so they scrapped the pieces that didn't work and emphasized those that did. There are quotes from every head we have had about having to do that to match the offense to the talent on hand. SATTTERFIELD REFUSES TO DO THAT.
In my example of Matt Turman that so clearly went over your head Osborn modified the offense with Turman at qb to ensure Matt wasn't put into a position to fail, largely by taking the game out of his hands and mitigating the chance for unforced errors.
Apparently you need to be walked through the difference between coaching the players you have verses failing to coach and blaming it on the players.
