08:17 AM ET 09.18 | Yes, it may get worse in Boulder, but things aren't likely to change on the sidelines. University of Colorado president Bruce Benson threw his support behind winless football coach Jon Embree on Monday and said he would not step in even if the 0-3 season got much worse. Benson said he is being patient with Embree, CU's second-year coach, despite Saturday's record-setting 69-14 loss to Fresno State one week after a loss to Sacramento State, a lower-division school. "I think players kind of said it all after the game when they said, 'This is the best set of coaches we've ever had and we're really behind them and they're great guys,'" Benson said. ... "All we can say is we have a serious rebuilding."

In the old days, during the age of leather helmets and before overtime when a game could actually end in a tie, I heard a Texas school superintendent tell his HS Football Coach, "Coach, We're behind you win or tie."
