Interim AD Ceal Barry calls for ten percent cuts in discretionary spending
- Making cuts makes sense ... as does keeping it quiet and doing it internally (55%, 125 Votes)
- Fine by me. When you run a deficit, you should look for cuts, right? (27%, 62 Votes)
- Ridiculous. Pac-12 money is starting to come in. Counting paperclips just makes CU look bad/worse. (18%, 39 Votes)

Tad Boyle receives a $700K increase in salary
- About right. It shows a commitment to Boyle ... without breaking the bank (71%, 159 Votes)
- Not enough. CU needs to hang onto Boyle at all costs ... and this is not a nationally competitive contract (27%, 60 Votes)
- Too much. Boyle is deserving ... but CU is already facing embarrassing cuts, so now is not the time for raises (2%, 4 Votes)

Should NCAA replace the 35-second shot clock with a 24-second shot clock?
- No - I agree with Coach Boyle - "The beauty of the game will be taken away" (71%, 48 Votes)
- I have absolutely no opinion on this issue. I'm a football fan - first and forever! (18%, 12 Votes)

CU ticket renewals running at 85% of last year ...
- All I know is that if the Buffs don't beat CSU, there might be only 35,000 on hand for Central Arkansas (49%, 119 Votes)
- Good news. Coming off the worst season in school history, it speaks well for the Buff Nation (41%, 99 Votes)
- Bad news. This is off of 2012 numbers, which weren't great to start with. More work for the new AD (10%, 26 Votes)

When CU gets a new recruit, the first thing I look for ...
- The other schools which have offered - that's the best measure of the recruit's perceived worth (75%, 198 Votes)
- The recruit's star rating. CU can't win consistently with a roster with nothing but 2- and 3-star prospects (14%, 37 Votes)
- Their time in the 40. If there is one thing CU needs, it's speed (8%, 22 Votes)
- I don't really check on recruits until they sign in February (3%, 6 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??? 🙂
