    Football 2025 Fall Camp Thread

    I wasn't expecting Wilson to be a difference maker this yr. But if he is, that's a huge season changer for us. If you get that plus Barney housing 2-3 kicks (or even like 50 yd returns)....that can make a special season. These are elements we just haven't had since the Pelini era. You cannot...

    And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

    If Shedildo is playing meaningful PT this yr in the NFL, Deion's interest in coaching CU has to go from the 20% it is now down to like 0%. That'll be fun to watch. If Shedildo is actually starting you have to thi my Deion would much rather be a helicopter dad following his son than actually do...

    And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

    Colon cancer is the worst 'should have checked that earlier' Doctors used to say get your first scope at 50. Now it's 45. I got my first one at 36 and they caught stuff that if I had waited to 50 probably would have been cancerous. I tell everyone to get it checked out even if they feel 100%...

    And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

    The conspiracy angle is he wants out now and is pre-laying the foundation for leaving CU after a 4-8 season. And he knows the haters said he'd quit after Shedildo left so he's laying out the excuse now that clears him. I always said it would be hard to triumphantly move to that FOX studio role...

    "Nebraska was not a good job" IT'S TRUE. Revisiting this Pete Thamel column from 9/21/17

    Seeing a lot of back-and-forth about Rhule saying Nebraska "was not a good job when I got here." He's right. Anyone arguing this is suffering from short-term memory loss. We had some DARK days around the end of the Eichorst/Riley era. I think people need to appreciate how far we've come...

    True. They'll do it anyway RE: Deion. "We are joined by one of the greatest program builders in CFB history, Deion Sanders. Coach, great to have you on our set this year!" Gonna make me barf every time. If they go 4-8 this yr that makes Deion's record at CU 17-20. And probably sets up CU to go...

    And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

    He better make sure they don't go 4-8 this yr. I'm not following them at all since we don't play them, I'm just assuming that's a possibility. He loses a bit of shine going to FOX after a 4-8 season IMHO. I'm not sure why he didn't just bounce after their bowl game. That would have freed him...

    Frost being Frost

    Frost's biggest problem RE: this is that he never put out a statement after he was fired. He could have got everyone moving on by having a PR firm type him up a statement "sorry it didn't work out - appreciate all the fans who supported us. I'll always love my alma mater" etc. Have a 25 yr old...

    Frost being Frost

    Interesting nugget in here about Frost/NU that I missed at the time. After Frost was fired Bruce Feldman mentioned on a podcast that he had heard that one dumb thing Frost did (among many) was that at the end of close games, as Frost was tensing up, he would call plays that the team hadn't even...

    What's interesting is the comments under that Chris Vannini tweet. Most are just dunking on Nebraska saying "Ha Ha, Nebraska is a terrible job. Frost is right!" But it was funny to see some CU and Cockeye fans going "listen, I absolutely despise Nebraska, but holy Jesus is this a bad look for...

    New Commit Claude Mpouma - Another one

    Was he pissed about the ESPN article today saying we "whiffed" on June recruiting? I saw that and thought it was a little harsh. Especially since the month wasn't over yet when it was written
