Should schools/collectives be able to sue players for damages when the player takes money and then leaves for another school?
- I just hope that this will push us closer to a regulated world, where a player signs a 2-3 year contract, and is bound by it's terms. Until then, we'll keep having massive roster turnovers (55%, 91 Votes)
- Yes. Many of these deals have upfront "bonuses". To have the players take the money and then (literally) run should not go without consequences (41%, 67 Votes)
- No. These schools/collectives don't care about recruiting or tampering rules when they sign the players, so they shouldn't cry foul when a player leaves (4%, 6 Votes)

Based upon performance, should G-6 schools be excluded from the College Football Playoff?
- Doesn't matter what I think. Unless the NCAA wants another antitrust lawsuit (which they will lose), a G6 spot has to be made available. It is what it is ... at least until the big boys break away (47%, 90 Votes)
- Yes. The discrepancies between the haves and the have nots has grown to great to make these games competitive. The playoff should include the Top 12 teams in the country (30%, 57 Votes)
- No. The alure for all 136 teams at the beginning of the season is that everyone has a shot at the national title. Take that away from the G6 teams, and they will have nothing to play for (23%, 45 Votes)

Which of the following would you like best as a Christmas present from CU?
- A billionaire Buff fan to emerge and make CU their pet project. If CU is going to compete, it's going to take a serious infusion of dollars. Here's hoping a billionaire is out there (80%, 143 Votes)
- News about quality assistant coach hires. CU had talent on the roster last season, but couldn't make things work. Better assistants could make for a much better 2026 season (12%, 22 Votes)
- Coach Prime being Coach Prime. The only thing which separates Coach Prime from other three year coaches with a 16-21 is his aura. Health issues aside, we need Coach Prime back (8%, 14 Votes)

CU adds two new assistant coaches: Johnnie Mack (running backs) and Chris Marve (linebackers). Thoughts?
- I'm just glad to see that Coach Prime is making some moves. With the mass defections from the Champions Center, the coaching staff needs to be in place and ready do when the Transfer Portal opens (52%, 72 Votes)
- Looks like positive moves, especially the hire of Marve. A former defensive coordinator, he should have a good grasp of the entire defense (and it looks like he's a good recruiter, too) (24%, 34 Votes)
- Not sure about either one. Mack is just a promotion from a coaching staff which went 3-9, while Marve is coming from a coaching which also went 3-9. Not exactly moving the needle for me here (24%, 33 Votes)

Colorado had 17 scholarship defensive linemen on the roster for the 2025 season ... and are now down to four. Thoughts?
- Okay, seven of the 13 were already gone, having exhausted their eligibility, but losing six more to the Transfer Portal isn't a good look. Oh, and CU has no linebackers back. Color me scared (55%, 81 Votes)
- Not a great concern. The defensive line was supposed to be a strength this season, but was a major disappointment. Perhaps starting over from scratch isn't a bad idea (23%, 34 Votes)
- Defensive line coach Domata Peko recruited his son (so I guess we're up to five defensive lineman for 2026) but needs to do a much better job at identifying - and developing - talent (22%, 31 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??? 🙂
