Sheep hiring Addazio

This honestly makes zero sense to me. Why pay Bobo all of that money in a buyout ($1.2 million) to bring in a guy that was just canned at Boston College?

Addazio is a lot better coach than Bobo.
 
Yep. His numbers after 7 years look very similar to how Bohls will after 7 years. And we treat Bohl like he's the second coming. I wish they had hired someone worse.
 
I honestly want Rams to be relevant. It feels much better beating them when they have a pulse rather than when they're completely dead.

That said, I'd rather beat a terrible Rams team than ever losing to them regardless of where they are record-wise.

I think they swapped the witch for the devil. Bobo is now making $1.2 million as a OC at South Carolina.

The thing is: Can a 60 year old coach whose spent his entire career back east recruit out west? It just doesn't make much sense. Plus, I think he only got a 3 year deal. So, he could be a lame duck in year 2. It reminds me a bit when Nebraska hired a 62 year old Mike Riley. It didn't make much sense and it didn't work. I'm guessing this won't either.

I don't like coaches that are in their 60s as a first time hire to a school, even if they have been a HC elsewhere. With the exception of Nick Saban or someone like that.
 
Very Bohl-like hire (in terms of how I think he'll do, not comparing to fcs champ and p5 coach). Lots of people making fun of it, but I'm betting he stabilizes the Rams.
That said, I wonder what his recruiting network is out here?

His ability to recruit will be what determines his success. If he can recruit, they'll be more stable. If he can't, they'll fall even farther from where they are now. Bobo was a shit head coach, but there is some talent at CSU. I don't know if it fits the style of Addazio though. I'm hoping that NFL receiver transfers away. That would be a great start to the collapse of CSU football.

They’re already seeing defections. Two recruits reopened their recruitment and I just saw one of their starting OL is transferring to Nebraska. They’ll lose a portion and have to start fresh. I’m not saying he can’t/won’t turn CSU around but the road will be long I think. Kinda like Bohl fixing CDC mess.
 
When asked about Bohl's thoughts about Addazio and Addazio's press conference, Bohl says 'no comment' but...'great question.' Pretty clear that Bohl is not a fan of Addazio and how Addazio has started in Fort Collins.

Looking forward to beating CSU next year!

It seems like Addazio and Bohl would get along famously. Two old school-type coaches with similar coaching philosophies. Maybe Addazio is an a-hole like everyone says?
