Coach Mac calls firing "an indictment of true integrity"
- McCartney & Co. have gone too far. It's time for them "to shut up and move on". They are only hurting the school they profess to love (79%, 234 Votes)
- I'm with Coach Mac on this one. What CU did was wrong, and Buff fans should "stand up and be counted" (21%, 63 Votes)

My feelings on the firing of Jon Embree ...
- Mixed emotions. I very much liked Embree and the staff, but the results on the field can't be ignored (63%, 289 Votes)
- Too soon. Embree should have been given three years - and BTW, who is going to want this job now, knowing you are on a two-year leash? (28%, 130 Votes)
- It should have happened even sooner. Glad to be moving on. (9%, 38 Votes)

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.
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!!
‘SkoBuffs!! Drub the Nubs.
Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.
Did Coach Hagan just let the cat out of the bag regarding Colorado’s starting QB?
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??? 🙂
