Five-Star Recruit
2 years from now on a cold Friday after Thanksgiving, Cu and NU take the field in Boulder. It is a tight game early but somewhere in the middle of the 2nd Quarter NU starts to show their dominance.

It starts with a simple run play. Lee takes the snap and gives the ball to Helu or James. They take off to the right looking for daylight around the end. Initially the play looks like a bust as CU and their LB's have the play stonewalled WHEN out of nowhere a pulling Baker Steinkuhler and Ricky Henry demoralize the LB duo of Doug Rippy and Shaun Mohler. What should have been a negative play turns into an 18 yard run.

From there, the offense for NU "takes what they want". Highly recruited yet mildy productive Josh Williams gets byotched slapped every play by Steinkuhler until eventually giving up and trying the opposite side of the line where Javario Burkes continues the Byotch slapping. Our Offense scores on 3 straight possessions and nearly has the game out of reach, but.......................................

on their next possession CU puts together a sustained drive, threatening to keep the game within reach. CU marches to the NU 16. The next play, "shorty Hawkins" drops back to pass. He is immediately under pressure since Jared Crick made mince meat out of an overrated Bryce Givens. Hawkins Rolls Left and is immediately in the sights of 2 young and fast NU LB's. Hawkins barely gets rid of the ball as he gets crushed by the NU defense. The pass comes out Wobbly and is picked off by one John Levorson, who immediately turns the ball up field. It looks to be a short run back giving the ball back to the NU offense until Ndomakon (sp?) Suh turns the corner and absolutely demoralizes the only CU player left that is capable of making a play. Suh hits Givens so hard that it puts him into next week. He hits him so hard that he is out for the rest of the year, with the only thing to show for his season being an indention of an N that is square in the middle of his chest and wont seem to go away.

I see the Future and that is What I see

Bottom Line, these turncoats dont want to play for NU then we dont Want them at NU. Bo and staff will do just fine.

Darrel Scott is a good back. he will do well, no doubt, but he will never put up 250 against NU NEVER. You guys are heading in the right direction and soon will be back to the norm for the Buffs 8 to 9 wins a year and not beating anyone you shouldnt beat.

NU is on the way to where they should be, 8 or 9 wins is a BAD YEAR.

 
It will suck for you though when Darrel Scott rings up about 250 yards and 4 td against the Blackskirts :)

Maybe on the old version (2007) of the Blackshirts. Watch out for the 2008 and future Blackshirts. The "Bones" will have more meaning next year and beyond.

How so, you will be using the same people because you aren't getting any recruits........ :box
Have you not been paying attention these past few months? The problem has not been the talent but the motivation.

 
You can either tackle or not tackle, being motivated to tackle is only a convenient excuse. Now you can be motivated to do a better job in the weight room for instance, but when a 220 lb runningback is coming through hard and heavy into the "B" gap you are either going to fill that gap and make the stop or not make the stop, Bo, Hawk, Saban, Paterno, or Bellichick won't make it happen one way or another for you.

The problem was there was no one even there this year. Makes stopping anyone really hard, hopefully that's what Pelini will change.

I guess we should follow the CU way, get the recruits hookers and if you can't, well hell just rape some earth muffin girls

Exactly. The guys were totally out of position most of the time, and that's totally a coaching issue. Compound that with the lack of direction in general and the losing starts, then morale plummets and everything goes out the window.

I'm not giving the defense a total pass, Buffs - you are right that our tackling technique was atrocious this year. But the the reality is that the coaches were a huge part of that problem, and now that we have a staff that ON PAPER looks like they're going to make the kids work harder, I expect a lot of those problems to get better.

I'm not saying we'll be a top-20 defense, but I think top 50 is certainly achievable, and with that you don't give up 200+ yard rushing games to any CU RB.

Yeah, ONE ARM TACKLE. :)

Callahan and staff were not teachers and obviously did not teach tackling. There will be a big difference this year.
