What about the CU defensive lineup gives you the most concern heading into next season?
  • None of the above. There are questions about the defense (isn't there always?), but this roster is perhaps the best since 2016 - I'm excited about this defense! (45%, 91 Votes)
  • That the cornerbacks roster is very young, and potentially (if injuries continue) very thin (23%, 47 Votes)
  • That the safeties unit consists of Derrion Rakestraw ... and a number of players who have yet to prove themselves wearing the black-and-gold (22%, 44 Votes)
  • That the outside linebackers unit consists of Carson Wells ... and not much else (10%, 22 Votes)

Outside of the competition for quarterback, which position race were you looking most forward to on offense this spring?
  • Offensive line - Replacements need to be found for two seniors (Arlington Hambright and Tim Lynott, Jr.) need to be replaced (both started all 12 games last fall). Who will those replacements be? (44%, 89 Votes)
  • Wide receivers - Would it be time for Daniel Arias to shine? Or Dimitri Stanley? Or Vontae Shenault? (29%, 58 Votes)
  • Running backs - Would Alex Fontenot be able to fend off Jaren Mangham and Deion Smith (with Ashaad Clayton waiting in the wings)? (27%, 56 Votes)

What would you think about CU picking up transfers J.T. Daniels (quarterback) and Scottie Young, Jr. (safety)?
  • Love to get both. A star quarterback from USC and a three-year starter at safety from Arizona? Gimme!! (37%, 80 Votes)
  • Doesn't matter. I don't see CU as being in the running for either player. Even in a weird off-season, CU is not entitled to nice things (32%, 70 Votes)
  • I would think safety Scottie Young, Jr. would be a nice pickup (and he knows cornerbacks coach Demetrice Martin), but J.T. Daniels was a head case at USC, and would be a head case in Boulder (31%, 66 Votes)

Which of the following Rick George quotes did you find most encouraging ...

  • “I would say that everything’s on the table (but) I would absolutely be the first one to take a pay cut" (38%, 52 Votes)
  • "We’ve still got some things that we’re looking at ... but we’ve looked at that and we still believe that we will be in the black (for 2019-20 fiscal year) (23%, 31 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??? 🙂
