CU coaching staff officially announced, with Pat Shurmur as the offensive coordinator and Robert Livingston as the defensive coordinator. Rate your level of confidence in the new coordinators
  • Medium. The mantra for the next six months will have to be "In Deion We Trust". The lineup is better, and we'll have to believe that this coaching staff will make it work on the field (59%, 138 Votes)
  • Low. Clearly, Livingston was a backup to the backup choice, and Shurmur didn't exactly inspire confidence in CU's winless November. Looking like quality coaches don't want to come to CU (24%, 55 Votes)
  • High. Shurmur was handicapped by a terrible offensive line and an injured quarterback. Livingston will have a stronger defense than Kelly had last year. Buckle up, Buff fans, and enjoy the ride (17%, 41 Votes)

CU hires Cincinnati Bengals secondary coach Robert Livingston as defensive coordinator. Thoughts?
  • Well, Coach Livingston is going to have a direct impact on getting Shilo Sanders and Travis Hunter into the NFL, so I'm guessing Coach Prime thinks this will work. In Coach Prime we trust! (38%, 91 Votes)
  • Looks like a good hire. Young, hungry, with a history of producing All-Pro defensive backs. Glad to have Livingston on board - let's get ready for spring ball! (31%, 75 Votes)
  • Umm ... A splash hire? Nope. Recruiting experience? Nope. We have been waiting for some time for the announcement, so I can only guess this is Coach Prime's third (or fourth?) choice. Sad day (31%, 74 Votes)

CU receives a commitment from three-star linebacker Kyeran Garcia from Ft. Meyers, Florida. Thoughts?
  • Umm ... We're at the second Signing Day, and Garcia wasn't even rated by Rivals (now given two stars). No Power Five offers ... sounds like a reach to me (40%, 93 Votes)
  • With the influx of offensive and defensive linemen, the unit in greatest need of bodies is the linebacker corps, and Garcia fits the bill ... Welcome, Mr. Garcia! (34%, 80 Votes)
  • I'm just disappointed that the first Wednesday in February is no longer a fun day. One freshman recruit ... and only seven overall? I miss the good ol' days of Signing Day stress and excitement (26%, 62 Votes)

Would you be interested in hiring Eric Bieniemy as an assistant coach under Coach Prime?
  • Depends. EB might give the offense the boost it needs. If not as an OC, perhaps EB would be interested in a year as being an analyst, biding his time until the next round of NFL hirings (43%, 125 Votes)
  • No. Anyone who has been around long enough to remember the failed experiment of EB as a CU offensive coordinator will know that this is a hard "No"! (35%, 100 Votes)
  • Yes. Bronco fans might not appreciate it, but Bieniemy did a great job as the offensive coordinator at Kansas City. EB is a Buff for Life, and would bring positive energy to CU (22%, 64 Votes)

Which of the latest developments is most likely to accelerate the end of college football as we know it?
  • The SEC and Big Ten forming an advisory committee to look into future options. How long will it be before the Big 32 or 48 break off to form a football-only league? (51%, 94 Votes)
  • A National Relations Board regional director has determined that Dartmouth athletes are employees, and has ordered a vote on unionizing. Say goodbye to any pretense of amateurism (38%, 70 Votes)
  • The states of Tennessee and Virginia suing the NCAA over NIL regulations. Without any NIL rules (even if rarely enforced), the wild, wild west will get even more out of hand (11%, 19 Votes)

  1. 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!!

  2. Stuart, your polls are so thoughtful and on point. Appreciate you doing this and sharing it with your CUAtTheGame community.

  3. 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??? 🙂
