You're putting the cart before the horse, it's football season. Let's cross that
bridge later
One more point, there will still be a bridge to cross because Dave is not the type of person to burn that bridge.

Why are fans giving Dave Rose a pass?
runnincoug
10/22/14 8:07am
because he is not Bronco. And very few fan bases can hate both FB & BB coaches.

You're not going to convince anyone of Bronco's greatness by bashing Rose

I'm not saying Bronco's great or Rose is lame. I'm saying they're the same

welcome to Bronco's life on CB!

I dont think those who have gone after Bronco have turned around and proclaimed

the sports are not the same, so good comparisons are not really possible

Because basketball isn't football.

10/22/14 8:10am
Great logic … but how is it really that different? Is losing to Loyola

In basketball you can lose to the worst team in the country...

not only that, but the nature of the game is different and makes those kinds of

So the lack of a football inclusive playoff means Bronco is a worse coach?

The best way I can sum up your comparison is like this:

The Jimmer season bought Rose more time. Bronco hasn't had a season like that
Walter Bellhaven
10/22/14 8:11am
This would have been Bronco's Jimmer season if Taysom hadn't been injured

That is what happens when you base your success on a running QB with

Very true! I think we all knew it was only a matter of time he could potentially

You're right. It was dumb of Rose to put all of his eggs and shot attempts in

10/22/14 8:27am
Is that an accurate comparison? Be honest.
Walter Bellhaven
10/22/14 8:29am
All that shooting may have worn out Jimmer's arm. Just as predictable as a
concolor couguar
10/22/14 8:45am
My point is all of Rose's eggs were in that one basket, as evidenced by
runnincoug
10/22/14 9:51am
But there is far less chance that that fails than a running QB
Walter Bellhaven
10/22/14 10:13am
Sure, I agree with everything you said. My main point is that the Jimmer team

Rose has plenty of critics on this board

Schultz is back
10/22/14 8:22am
To be honest, I think he has done a pretty poor job as of late.
thebruce
10/22/14 8:12am
also, even if we had Taysom, our team still wouldn't be a legit top 10 team.

Rose's defense was a train wreck too that year, and Bronco has beaten Texas
runnincoug
10/22/14 8:18am
his defense was solid that year. Jackson, KC, Abouo, Hartsock, and even Davies
thebruce
10/22/14 8:29am
Defense was top 3 in the conference if you consider pace
concolor couguar
10/22/14 8:30am
Wait are you talking 2011? or last year?
concolor couguar
10/22/14 8:31am
You're right, I got my years mixed up. It was after that year that D went down

10/22/14 8:36am
I was referring to the defense last year. It was average last year given pace

Fire Dave Rose!

1. Rose is more personally like-able than Bronco.

I really think this is it…if we admit it, it's just because Rose is easier to

If this was Bronco's first chance at a "Jimmer" season then you'd have a point.

It just seems petty to say, "Fire the coach because, er, he doesn't love me"

10/22/14 8:23am
That does seem petty. Who said that?

Duke fans don't care more about Duke football. The money comes from P5

so it's just about money? In that case, let's let Holmoe decide if Bronco is ok

There is not really much that separates Rose and Bronco at this point
