Sean Lewis stripped of play calling duties at Colorado

Nevada is the only one I could think of that is probably open this off-season, but that's a terrible move if so.
Maybe he's competitive for that job, but it seems like a long shot that they're 1. For sure firing their coach, 2. Are so sure they have engaged Lewis, and 3. That they like lewis so much they've offered him the job before the market even really opens

But this is a crazy mixed up world so maybe it's true
 
I don't know that I really agree with this. Maybe he has come back to earth a little bit from the first couple weeks, but there has been Sean Lewis chatter for every HC opening since TCU. If Deion is blaming Sean Lewis, here he is just an idiot.

I agree that if Deion is blaming him he’s really off his rocker and completely unhinged.

I despise Deion as much as the next person, but I’m also willing to see if there isn’t a bit more context here. I’m not sure that there is but I’ll be fair to anyone.

Sean Lewis is a great OC. But he was 24-31 as a head coach. Not sure that would mean he should be a guy on a short list for a big ten job that isn’t Indianus.

Maybe Sean Lewis clapped back at Prime behind the scenes and told him it’s his fault for cutting people that he might’ve wanted to keep. There was a story about how the OL coach wanted to keep an OL, but Prime had him cut anyway. The whole thing is a shit show.

O’Boyle wanted Ashton Murphy really bad to play for him. When Ash was on campus Deion ignored him almost intentionally.

There was a legacy player already on the team and they cut him after spring practice. Not sure who it was, but it was posted in the CU thread.

Edit, it was Travis Gray.

As a reaction
 
My bet is a disagreement arose with Lewis wanting to be a lot more balanced but Deion was pushing him to pass the whole game to rack up stats for Shadildo. Hopefully he doesn’t end up at Cockeye next year.

My only counter to that would be why would Lewis bother fighting Deion at this point?

I mean, 4 games left, you know you're moving on in December to a new gig....I'd just collect the paycheck at that point. They're not playing for anything & probably going 5-7 at best.

If I were Lewis I'd just do whatever Deion says these past 4 games and get the hell out of there as soon as the clock strikes 0:00 that final game. Lewis gains nothing by fighting it at this point - only risks humiliation.

Agree something like MSU seems like a stretch. I’m generally going to side with winners win, but Kent St is a terrible job. Lewis was smart to pivot through a P5 HC job, and it seems like an open secret at this point that he would’ve been OC at Wisky if Leonard gets that job.

Lewis’ name I think has cooled from early in the season, but CFB insiders have all said his name has come up a lot behind the scenes. Wouldn’t be surprised at all if he does NFL assistant.

To be clear, I do think he’s a very good coach and this was a very good hire by Deion.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he got a head job this year, or maybe Leonhard is closing in on a job and he’s told Lewis that he wants him as his OC?
 
San Diego State is gonna need a new coach, or CSU if Norvell goes to Cockeye as OC. Love the rams, they were my grandpas favorite team, but they are a mess
 
Who was the guy from on3 (or maybe it was on rivals I forget) who insisted Pat Shurmur was gonna be our HC?
 
We haven’t heard as much lately from the guys who were crowing about being “right” on Deion and how, if we had just listened to them, we wouldn’t be stuck with this loser Rhule.

Seeing in real time the value of a guy who has patience, doesn’t panic, and actually believes in his process instead of just saying those words at a press conference.
Havent heard much today from the guys ready to crown Rhule king after beating 5 teams who are in the bottom 30 in the country and dont have quarterbacks. Havent heard much from the Nash is Warren Sapp crowd after he has disappeared the past 2 weeks. Maybe everybody should just pump the breaks.

We’ll see if he can challenge the final-whistle-to-arrival-at-airport record set last year by Mark Whipple.
