Washington signs a $12 million/year deal with Adidas. Thoughts?
  • It would be nice if CU got a similar deal ... in 2025 when CU's $3 million/year deal with Nike expires (54%, 83 Votes)
  • Should spice up the Oregon/Washington rivalry a bit to have the Huskies dump Nike U's mealticket (26%, 40 Votes)
  • Good for the Huskies. Nice that a Pac-12 team is worthy of some national interest (20%, 30 Votes)

Athlon: CU has the 29th-best football/basketball coaching combo
  • Ask me again in a year - The 2018-19 seasons could be "make-or-break" for both coaches (58%, 111 Votes)
  • Agree. Both MacIntyre and Boyle have grown their programs over the years (28%, 54 Votes)
  • Disagree. MacInytre's overall record is embarrassing, while Boyle's teams under-achieve (14%, 28 Votes)

How would you rate CU's defensive backfield?
  • C ... Cautiously optimistic. There is talent returning, but three starters must be replaced (47%, 111 Votes)
  • C+ ... Confident. "Defensive Back U" continues to crank out NFL-caliber talent (40%, 94 Votes)
  • C- ... Concerned. New coaches and new players - and a unit which was 94th in pass defense in 2017 (13%, 32 Votes)

Should CU take a break from the basketball series v. CSU?
  • Wouldn't mind, except that CU has lost 3-of-4 against CSU - makes it look like the Buffs are running scared (43%, 83 Votes)
  • No. One of the few games in the non-conference schedule which has a big crowd is CSU (41%, 79 Votes)
  • Yes. Any chance CU has to keep little brother from being on an equal footing (16%, 32 Votes)

ESPN's FPI Index has CU ranked No. 11 in the Pac-12
  • Not news. Just another of what will be a long string of negative national stories about the Buffs this spring/summer (56%, 110 Votes)
  • About right ... unfortunately. Buffs have a lot to prove this fall (26%, 51 Votes)
  • An absurd ranking. FPI ratings are about as easy to decipher as quarterback rankings - and about as useful (18%, 36 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??? 🙂
