How would you rate your level of concern over the offensive line roster heading into spring camp?
  • High. If, objectively, the results from last season show that CU had one of the worst offenses in the nation, there is a great deal of work to be done (61%, 135 Votes)
  • Medium. Hopefully, there will be a new addition or two from the Transfer Portal, but there are some good building blocks here. I'm cautiously optimistic a strong unit will come together by fall (30%, 68 Votes)
  • Low. The Buffs had a high school coach teaching their offensive line last year, and that issue has been resolved. Kyle DeVan is a solid coach, and he has a good group to work with - just watch! (9%, 20 Votes)

Which factoid about senior Brady Russell do you find the most interesting?
  • That Russell is excited about the new offense under Mike Sanford, as there is a "rhyme and a reason" for everything the new offensive staff is doing (74%, 118 Votes)
  • That when Russell got to CU, the tight ends had a pinkie high five, with the sign language "i" symbolizing the irrelevance of the tight end room (18%, 29 Votes)
  • That Russell was a walk-on, yet was named the Offensive Scout team Player of the Year as a true freshman, showing his dedication to help the team (8%, 13 Votes)

How would you rate your level of concern over the wide receiver roster heading into spring practices, 2022?
  • Medium. Sure, there was some talent lost, but the wide receiver room has been one of the deepest on the team for years. Plug in RJ Sneed and give the returning players a chance to shine (41%, 82 Votes)
  • Low. It appears that the players who want to be on the team are still on the roster. Figure out the quarterback situation (and get the offensive line to improve), and this group will shine this fall (39%, 79 Votes)
  • High. You don't lose talents like Brenden Rice, Dimitri Stanley, and La'Vontae Shenault without taking a step back ... and this unit underperformed with those players on the roster (20%, 40 Votes)

Survey of 1,000 high school football players: CU's brand No. 57 out of 66 Power Five schools. Thoughts?
  • This survey should be posted in every coaches office. It's going to take some significant effort on the recruiting trail to bring CU back to relevance. Get to work, gentlemen! (47%, 85 Votes)
  • It's probably accurate, and an indictment of how far Colorado has fallen in the eyes of recruits. Buff fans remember better days, but recruits haven't seen much from the program in their lifetimes (44%, 80 Votes)
  • Means nothing. It's just a survey, without any information about how the survey was conducted. It's spring, and there isn't much to talk about until spring ball starts. Nothing to see here (9%, 17 Votes)

With CU not part of the field of 68 in the NCAA tournament this year, rate your level of interest in the Big Dance compared to last year
  • Low. I'm not really into college basketball. Sure, I will make note of how the games are going, but, without CU in the tournament, my interest is definitely lower than it was last year (36%, 75 Votes)
  • High. I love March Madness. I love the upsets; I love filling out my brackets. Whether CU is playing or not, my interest in March Madness is always high (35%, 72 Votes)
  • Medium. There are a number of interesting storylines for this season's tournament, and there will be upsets. I would be more excited if CU were playing, but I will be watching (29%, 60 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??? 🙂
