Impatiently Waiting...

CSU sports had a rough weekend.

-The best sports team on campus got upset by Michigan in the second round of the NCAA Tournament (it was on the road, very much making me question the volleyball seeding process, but oh well).

-The basketball team went ice cold down the stretch against the UNC Bears and let a 6-1 guard grab 14 rebounds. Pathetic. They better step up Wednesday against Joe Scott's Denver Pioneers, who bring in their Princeton offense, which is akin to watching paint dry, but is certainly difficult to defend.

-The girls basketball team got shellacked by CU.

In the meantime CSU football fans are still pissed (some to the point of singing) about Sonny being gone, while wondering who would get the fun job of replacing a legend.

There have been many names thrown around, including one report that CSU was interested in John L. Smith, who has been in serious negotiations with Washington State. He built up Louisville from nothing, but he went a little crazy at Michigan State.

Pauly K has been mum on the subject of whom he is looking at, but I hope he goes with someone who is an up-and-coming coach, hopefully with some connection to Colorado (examples; Brian Schnieder, Charlie Strong and Billy Gonzales as a package, Gregg Brandon, JD Brookhardt, Bobby Hauck).

I wouldn't feel that way about Smith, he just doesn't give me that vibe.

With all that said, I have no idea what Pauly K is up to. There were about 100 names mentioned before he plucked Tim Miles out of nowhere (all right, North Dakota State), and only one or two people even mentioned Miles as a possibility.

Pauly K better find himself a good one, or he will be looking for a new job soon.
