Should Travis Hunter play wide receiver as well as cornerback?
- Maybe ... I can see CU using Hunter in certain packages, but Coach Prime just signed eight wide receivers (the most in a Class). Perhaps CU should focus on using the wide receivers they have (58%, 165 Votes)
- Yes. Hunter proved at Jackson State he can excel at both positions. As CB Coach Mathis put it: “Travis is a unique player and he has great skills. His competitiveness is out the door" (30%, 84 Votes)
- No. Hunter has the potential to be the best cornerback in the nation, and a high first-round draft pick in two years. He should focus on honing his CB skills for the NFL (12%, 34 Votes)

If the Pac-12 media deal comes in at less per team than the Big 12 media deal ($31.7 million per year), CU should ...
- It would depend on the deal. If there are avenues to playing on ESPN or another national network, I'd stay. If the Pac-12 is going for all-streaming services, I'd run to the Big 12 (43%, 120 Votes)
- Run to the Big 12 as soon as possible. Oregon and Washington won't be sitting still for these numbers, so the Buffs should get while the gettings good (35%, 97 Votes)
- Stick with the Pac-10/12. All things being (relatively) equal, the Pac-12 remains a better fit, not to mention an easier path to a potential playoff berth (22%, 61 Votes)

John Canzano article mentions Colorado State as a possible candidate to join a "Pac-14". Thoughts?
- There is zero chance that the Lambs, who average 26,000 per home game, will be seriously considered by the Pac-12 for membership. San Diego State? SMU? Maybe. CSU - Never (62%, 152 Votes)
- I'm relying on AD Rick George to make sure this doesn't happen. Elevate the Lambs to an equal status? It would hurt image, recruiting ... and my justifiable distain for all things CSU (23%, 58 Votes)
- It would depend on the circumstances (which other schools; affect on media distribution), but having an actual rival to play every year might help generate statewide interest in the Pac-12 (15%, 37 Votes)

Which of the following quotes from defensive coordinator Charles Kelly do you like the best?
- Our identity: We're going to build our defense off of Coach Prime's expectations. We want to be big, physical, disciplined, fast. We want to be an aggressive style defense. You can't copy anybody (50%, 146 Votes)
- We're assuming that nobody knows anything. We're going to teach our players what to do, how to do it, and why it's important to do it that way. We'll start basic, and then we'll build (47%, 136 Votes)
- It's a great staff. I've known these guys for many years. One of the blessings of being a coach is the relationships that you make. You try and take what everybody does best, and you add that (3%, 9 Votes)

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??? 🙂
