Which factoid about senior forward Evan Battey to you is the most impressive
  • That Evan has been on the floor for 86 victories, the highest total in Colorado basketball history. Despite everything, Evan has not missed a single game in his CU career (54%, 105 Votes)
  • That Evan was denied a senior year by California athletics, and a true freshman season by the NCAA, but not only didn't quit, he made All-Pac-12 academic teams and has a degree in journalism (38%, 74 Votes)
  • That Evan, along with fellow senior Eli Parquet (now injured) have been able to lead this young team to the brink of 20 wins and a bye in the Pac-12 tournament (8%, 14 Votes)

Report: CU to hire Gerald Chatman as its next defensive line coach. Thoughts?
  • It is what it is. Anyone who doesn't like what CU has to work with as assistant coaches is free to donate a spare million or more to the CU assistant pool. If you rai$e it, they will come (56%, 151 Votes)
  • I'm on board. Stops at Texas A&M, LSU, and the Cincinnati Bengals. Considering the time frame (spring practices getting underway), it's good that Dorrell was able to fill the position so quickly (29%, 79 Votes)
  • Trading an up-and-coming assistant coach with relentless recruiting prowess for the Tulane defensive line coach? Another disappointing day in CU's 2021-22 off-season (15%, 39 Votes)

Rate your level of interest in the CU women's basketball program this spring
  • Medium. I'm glad the Buffs will earn their first NCAA bid since 2013, and will try and track their progress over the next few weeks (47%, 120 Votes)
  • High. The Buffs play a great team game, have 21 wins, and are a virtual lock to earn an NCAA tournament bid (currently 8th in the ESPN bracket) (28%, 71 Votes)
  • Low. Nothing against J.R. Payne and her Buffs, but football and men's basketball drive the bus in overall interest of the fan base, and it's no different in my world (25%, 65 Votes)

Vic So'oto, hired by Cal, refutes Karl Dorrell's statement. So'oto: “Proximity to ‘support’ was not on the list of my reasons to leave CU". Thoughts?
  • It is what it is. CU has lost many coaches before (see: Tucker; Leavitt; many others). I'm more interested in what Dorrell & Co. will do to try and make it right for CU going forward (52%, 152 Votes)
  • Suspicions confirmed - CU outbid for a good young coach with recruiting abilities. Another day; another story confirming CU isn't able/willing to be a competitive Power Five program (47%, 136 Votes)
  • Well, So'oto did say that he was grateful for the opportunity to coach outside linebackers at Cal. Perhaps he really did just want to expand his coaching resume (1%, 2 Votes)

CU announces defensive line coach Vic So'oto is leaving to return to California for "family reasons". Thoughts?
  • Just another day in the life of "CU is not allowed to have nice things". Can't imagine CU will be able to find a decent replacement with less than a month before the start of spring practices (37%, 107 Votes)
  • We don't know the whole story here, so we need to, at least for now, give So'oto the benefit of the doubt. If he ends up at another Pac-12 school, though, I will not be a happy camper (35%, 102 Votes)
  • I'm waiting for the punch line. Wait, are you kidding me? So'oto didn't look at a map before he took the job? I'm calling BS on the rationale (28%, 84 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??? 🙂
