CU picks up two new players for 2022: Freshman cornerback Jason Oliver and senior transfer edge rusher Chance Main. Thoughts?
  • I'm just glad to see that CU hasn't completely forgotten about recruiting. Classes start next week - fingers crossed for a few more recruits signing on with CU this weekend (40%, 97 Votes)
  • So, a defensive lineman from Incarnate Word with few (if any) other offers, and a 160-pound defensive back? Not exactly replacements for Mustafa Johnson and Christian Gonzalez (33%, 80 Votes)
  • Nice pickups! Oliver has a great upside (not to mention three other Pac-12 offers), while Main is a plug-and-play senior in a position of need. Sounds good (27%, 67 Votes)

CU's leading rusher, Jarek Broussard, becomes the latest Buff to enter the Transfer Portal. Thoughts?
  • I'm wondering if anyone at the Champions Center has a plan. I'm wondering if any boosters are setting up a slush fund. I'm wondering if I should still care ... (39%, 162 Votes)
  • Just kill me now. CU's leading rusher? One of its top wide receivers? It's best defensive backs? It's cornerbacks coach? ... Tell me when the bad news is going to stop! (32%, 134 Votes)
  • I'm willing to see how it all plays out. If CU picks up some quality transfers over the next few months, this could all work out. My patience is being tested, but I'm still patient (for now) (29%, 121 Votes)

Washington State boosters form an organization to help lure a top quarterback recruit to Pullman. Thoughts?
  • Okay, where are the Buff Boosters? Isn't there someone out there (Buff Club? C-Club? Buffs4Life?) who can run with this and bring prospects to CU? Set something up, and we'll donate! (46%, 111 Votes)
  • Makes me sick to my stomach. It's one thing when SEC schools buy players, but a school like Washington State? Is there ANYTHING that CU is doing to compete in the age of NIL? (30%, 72 Votes)
  • Actually, it gives me some hope. If a school like WSU can figure this out, then there is reason to believe CU will be able to get a few of the 1,500 players in the Portal to come to to Boulder (24%, 57 Votes)

CBS "Way-Too-Early" Preseason Top 25 has three Pac-12 teams. Thoughts?
  • When Oregon gets killed by Georgia in the opener, that will be four routs in five games (Utah twice; Oklahoma; Georgia). Oregon will still win the North, but the Ducks aren't great (39%, 82 Votes)
  • So ... USC went 4-8, 3-6 - the exact same record as CU, and is a Top 15 team just because they changed coaches? Sure, the Trojans are better than the Buffs, but a Top 15 team? We'll see (32%, 66 Votes)
  • Utah at No. 13; USC at No. 14; and Oregon at No. 18 ... Sounds about right. Utah has a ton coming back, and USC and Oregon have more talent than any other teams in the Pac-12 (29%, 60 Votes)

What to you was the best news of the day for the Buff Nation?
  • That Rashaan Salaam was selected for enshrinement into the College Football Hall of Fame. Long overdue, but it's nice to have Buff No. 10 in the Hall of Fame (60%, 194 Votes)
  • That the CU women's basketball team is back in the Top 25, with Julian Hammond III the Pac-12 Freshman POTW and Jaylyn Sherrod the Pac-12 POTW - good week for CU basketball (21%, 70 Votes)
  • That Alabama's Nick Saban (and Georgia's Kirby Smart) came out against using NIL to recruit players. Not that the SEC is going to lead the way (or self impose any restrictions), but it's a start (19%, 62 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??? 🙂
