CU At The Game Podcast – Mailbag Edition: Entering the First Summer of the Coach Prime Era
—
With the Pac-12 media contracts still in limbo, and CU’s roster largely in place for the 2023 season, it’s a good time for a mailbag episode (questions always welcome at cuatthegame@gmail.com). I am joined for this episode by Brad Geiger and Neil Langland, and we discuss the burning CU questions of the day:
– Dan Patrick at Fox Sports says Coach Prime and his Buffs could go 0-5 in September, and yet could still be considered successful. Is that a realistic assessment, or national media hyperbole?;
– With the roster largely in place, and no transfer backup quarterback in sight, is Coach Prime going to need to have Travis Hunter in a Wildcat formation as Plan B for the 2023 campaign? Or will it be Shedeur Sanders and a prayer for his health be CU’s best hope for the season?;
– Will the Pac-12 media contracts ever get done? Will it contain a number of games which will be exclusively aired by streaming services (and could that actually be considered a good thing for the Pac-12)?;
– Did CU overreach when it came to pricing the single game tickets for the Nebraska game? Will sticker shock help to keep The Red out? Or will the high prices help CU’s bottom line, but only serve to guarantee more Cornhusker fans in the stands on September 9th?
… Let’s find out …
