Three of five starters are leaving the CU men's basketball program. Thoughts?
  • Another day, another disappointment for CU athletics. You can't rebuild your team every ... single ... season. When will retention become a priority at CU? (41%, 35 Votes)
  • The report was that CU was doubling its basketball budget. Does this mean that CU is line to get better players in exchange for those who are leaving? (Asking for a friend) (34%, 29 Votes)
  • How will the team play Oklahoma in Las Vegas (down three starters)? This year's Crown Tournament result could be even more embarrassing than last year's 21-point loss to Villanova (25%, 22 Votes)

How much weight do you give to the Vegas oddsmakers who have CU last in the Big 12 for 2026?
  • Medium. Vegas looks at the CU roster, and sees a team not much improved from the 3-9 team from 2025. On its face, CU's roster doesn't look great, but this is why we play the games (43%, 65 Votes)
  • High. Vegas has analysts who know a great deal more than Buff fans who watch five second clips from spring practices. CU's lineup has no stars; CU's program has no direction (30%, 45 Votes)
  • Low. There is money to be made from generic observations out of the desert. CU, with a healthy and motivated Coach Prime, and an offense which will actually score points, will surprise this fall (27%, 40 Votes)

Report: Star CU freshman guard Isaiah Johnson to enter the Transfer Portal. Thoughts?
  • Dear Buff fans: If you don't like it, write a check! The "Buffs All In" campaign is four days old, and has raised all of ... $12,000. If Buff fans want to keep players, they need to pony up (47%, 65 Votes)
  • Unfortunately, this is the way of the world of collegiate athletics these days. Every program is going to lose players. I just hope that CU will be able to keep most of the remaining core of the team (38%, 53 Votes)
  • This is why it's time for Tad Boyle to retire. His method of building a team - developing players over several years - doesn't work in today's game. CU can't compete being a feeder school (15%, 21 Votes)

CBS Sports has CU going 2-1 in non-conference play ... and then 1-8 again in Big 12 play. Thoughts?
  • Buff fans don't want to hear it, but the reality has to set in at some point. In two of Coach Prime's three seasons, CU has gone 1-8 in conference play ... not a stretch to see that happening again (39%, 45 Votes)
  • If you repeat something enough times, it becomes the truth. It's been the narrative since November that the Buffs are going to be bad this fall. It would be a shock if we read a positive story (36%, 41 Votes)
  • Yet another boring paper thin analysis by a national pundit. Buff fans know what's being put together in Boulder. We'll see how this "analysis" pans out this fall (25%, 29 Votes)

Which of the following quotes from cornerback RJ Johnson do you like the best?
  • “We all know that last year wasn’t acceptable so everybody came in with the mind ready to work ... Everybody here is hungry so nobody came in tense. We are pushing each other" (59%, 42 Votes)
  • On the defense: “There are a lot of plays being made. I feel like everybody is doing a great job of jelling together and just becoming one team for the ultimate goal of winning a championship" (38%, 27 Votes)
  • On the CB room: “We’re very versatile, we have a lot of guys ... So it has been great to play alongside those guys and be in the room and get to know them" (3%, 2 Votes)

  1. Stuart:

    I like the question about SS’s negative coverage. Personally, I think the see-saw coverage is mostly about “stirring the pot” and/or getting clicks. SS is this year’s draft soap opera–a love/hate fest For one negative story there is a more positive one. Some stories are just hit jobs (anonymous NFL assistant/exec), others just cover every minutia of his life. Yesterday, Kiper has him still going early.

    SS is an intriguing draftee warranting discussion, however the extensive overall coverage on every detail for one QB prospect seems over the top. NFL teams have their draft boards, needs, and evaluations and they make decisions based upon that. I’ll be glad when SS and TH are picked today and the focus will be on our team.

  2. The Buffs need to wear the silver and gold that are the official school colors. Black jerseys are OK as the’ve been around for a long time, but out with the black helmets–and the white ones too. Gold helmets with silver pants, alternating with silver helmets and gold pants would be good. Nix on all black and all white!!

  3. Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.

  4. Wouldn’t mind the Cheez-It Bowl at all, as I have connections at Kellogg’s (owns Cheez-it) who could get me tickets!! Is that Cheezy??? 🙂
