That was a dumb promotion, even at the time. But hiring Chizik was a coup at the time, and he had the pedigree. Promoting a good hire is not the same as making a hire strictly for promotional purposes.

Yeah, must be mostly just a money move. Liberty also has very nice facilities.
Having guys like deon around coaching as a power 5 scare me. I could see bags of cash laying around In the locker room. Colorado will be back soon. I wouldn’t doubt if they are one of the better teams next year in the pac12.
dude. where have you been. you dont need bags of cash anymore. its direct deposit
WR coach is already gone, just hasn't been announced. We'll see about Brian, I won't hold my breath but there does seem to be a lot of smoke there.
The best that money stolen from veterans can buy
But that isn't the be all/end all. Just look at Arkansas and A&M.
Football is about building a roster, not just getting a dozen really good players.
I am rooting for Deon, because I would love CU to be relevant. But I think he will have a lot of work to do to build CU's roster and it may take a couple years.
I started following their search last Sunday when it was possible that Campbell was interested. And I've continued following for the fun of it. They are pretty delusional. For example, yesterday some Iowa State fan tweeted that Klieman was going to take the Cincinnati job and some of those fools thought it was serious. They've added Mo Linquist back on their list and are worried about that. Today's surprise candidate might be Chip Kelly. Some of them even hate that.
With how transferring and everything is changing it will be interesting to see how much shorter rebuilds take going forward.
Maybe schemes will have to really align even more so, so that transfers can just be plugged in to the system.
But the competition for starter ready players is tremendous. CU will be competing against all the other top 20 teams for the same guys. Plus some of those schools might have more NIL $ than CU to spread around.
Deon is going to need to build CU's OL, DL, etc. People point to Lincoln Riley's success year 1, but he was adding elite transfers to a roster of 4/5 star players. At CU Deon is building from ground zero.
Yeah I think it will take some time but my question is will it take shorter than usual.
Lineman transfer too and it won't take long for folks to find out from JSU players how great it is to play for Sanders.
What's his angle though? At Jackson St I got it. That was, let's overturn this system together. Believe. Now its, "look how I got to the next level, now you can too"?
