NCAA: football attendance totals in 2019 were the lowest since 1996 ... Has your CU viewing changed in recent years?
  • No. I attend a few games/don't attend games, and that will be the same for me this fall (42%, 136 Votes)
  • No. I've been a season ticket holder in the past, and will be a season ticket holder in 2020 (29%, 95 Votes)
  • Yes. I used to be a season ticket holder, but now I will only attend a few games here and there or not at all (too expensive; poor play drove me away) (21%, 69 Votes)
  • Yes. I used to attend a few games/didn't attend games, but I plan on attending more games this fall and into the future (8%, 23 Votes)

Defensive lineman Antonio Alfano suspended indefinitely for violating team rules. Your reaction?
  • "Suspended indefinitely" doesn't (necessarily) mean dismissed. Here's hoping that Alfano will find his way back into good graces with the program, and finds his way onto the field as a Buff (38%, 168 Votes)
  • You can't miss what you never had. At least CU has quality depth returning along the defensive line. CU needs dedicated players, not head cases, so it's better to know now if Alfano isn't all in (33%, 145 Votes)
  • Sigh. Another five-star flameout for CU. Once again "CU is not allowed to have nice things" rears its ugly head. Darrell Scott, Marcus Houston, Lynn Katoa, Craig Ochs ... etc., etc., etc. ... (29%, 132 Votes)

What grade would you give the assistant coaches on defense hired by Karl Dorrell?
  • A B ... Summers still has something to prove as a DC, but Michalowski is a proven recruiter, and Martin, Maxie and Wilson are proven talents (57%, 198 Votes)
  • An A ... Keeping Tyson Summers and Brian Michalowski, and adding three quality assistants ... well done, Coach Dorrell! (24%, 84 Votes)
  • A C ... Let's not forget that CU gave up over 30 points/game last season (worst in five years) under Tyson Summers. Fingers crossed that he will fare better in Year Two (15%, 51 Votes)
  • A D ... Keeping Summers was a mistake, and two of the three new assistants were not in college football (read: not recruiting) last year. Not a great combination (4%, 13 Votes)

Tad Boyle's Buffs finishes the regular season on a four-game losing streak. Thoughts?
  • Couldn't be more disappointed/disgusted with how this season has gone into the toilet. One and done in Las Vegas, and then one-and-done in the Tournament ... to finish with a six-game losing streak. (53%, 179 Votes)
  • There is still time to correct the damage. The Pac-12 tournament will give the Buffs a chance at redemption, and then everyone starts the NCAA tournament with an 0-0 record, so who knows? (35%, 118 Votes)
  • A tough loss (with some questionable calls from the referees), but CU hasn't beaten Utah in Salt Lake City since 2012. A bad beat, but not fatal. In Tad we (still) trust (12%, 40 Votes)

What grade would you give the assistant coaches on offense hired by Karl Dorrell?
  • A B ... I like most of the hires, but bringing in Mitch Rodrigue to coach the offensive line is a bit of a puzzle - in Karl we Trust! (58%, 178 Votes)
  • An A ... Retaining Chiaverini and Hagan was crucial, and getting Danny Langsdorf to coach up the quarterbacks and be the passing game coordinator gives me great optimism for 2020 and beyond (22%, 68 Votes)
  • A D ... It all starts with the offensive line, and bringing in a high school coach to run the line is a disaster waiting to happen (10%, 31 Votes)
  • A C ... Chiaverini did not fare well in his first opportunity as an offensive coordinator, so it's hard to see this offense being much improved (10%, 28 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??? 🙂
