CU receives no votes in either AP or USA Today coaches poll ...
- It's fine ... if it puts a chip on the Buffs' shoulder for the game against No. 16 Oregon on Thursday (62%, 199 Votes)
- Not unreasonable. CU still hasn't posted a "signature" win, and is coming off a 16-18 season. (23%, 75 Votes)
- Buffs 17-5, 6-3 (exact records as USC and Utah, which are receiving votes). Bias against CU continues (15%, 48 Votes)
Start Date: February 1, 2016 @ 9:34 pm
End Date: No Expiry
What I like best about the commitment from Pookie Maka
- That Maka had offers from a dozen Power-Five schools, including half the Pac-12 (60%, 227 Votes)
- That Maka is a three-star prospect at the crucial DE/OLB position - a real position of need for CU (29%, 111 Votes)
- That Buff fans will be able to spend the next 4/5 years cheering for "Poooookie" (11%, 43 Votes)

My current plans for Signing Day this Wednesday ...
- I'll check a few times during the day, and maybe Wednesday night to see if I missed anything important (43%, 112 Votes)
- I'll be checking in early and often ... it could be a huge day for the Buffs! (40%, 105 Votes)
- CU is going to post another last place Pac-12 Class. Wake me when CU's recruiting is relevant again (17%, 43 Votes)

CU gaining - and losing - multiple recruits in the final week before SIgning Day
- Net gains being made. The players signing on better than the players which have been lost (52%, 129 Votes)
- I'm just glad that CU is in the conversation in recruiting battles again (29%, 71 Votes)
- Disconcerting. CU losing commits to schools like USF and Memphis ... Not a good sign (19%, 49 Votes)

Buffs receive a commitment from JC LB Drew Lewis
- A smart pickup. A talented starter at a position of need. Welcome, Mr. Lewis! (52%, 151 Votes)
- My concern: He went from a three-star HS prospect with P5 offers to a JC prospect with CU the only P5 offer (36%, 105 Votes)
- A player dismissed by Washington for "violating team rules"? Sounds like a reach (12%, 33 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??? 🙂
