Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff: "We'd be foolish not to listen if schools call us". Thoughts on the future of the Pac-12?
  • I'm just concerned about my Buffs. With two winning seasons in the past 13 years, CU doesn't have the same cache. I hope the Buffs aren't left without a chair when the realignment music stops (49%, 88 Votes)
  • If you're not moving forward, you're moving backward. The Pac-12 needs to be looking at expansion (or merger?). The conference needs to be looking at some of the Big 12 leftovers, and expand to 16 (35%, 62 Votes)
  • Not going to happen, at least not with the "Little Eight" schools. Land grant schools won't impress Pac-12 presidents; AD's won't see those schools bringing in more money for the conference (16%, 29 Votes)

Report: Texas and Oklahoma in talks with SEC about joining the conference to form a 16-team super conference. As a Buff fan, what is your reaction?
  • We'll see it when we see it. There are way too many moving parts rights now to predict how this will play out. Let's see if the rumor turns into a reality, then start worrying about the next moves (53%, 135 Votes)
  • Not a fan. CU is not in a strong position right now due to a decade plus of poor results, and I'm afraid that if there is another round of realignment, CU might be relegated to a lesser national role (31%, 79 Votes)
  • Love it ... If the Big 12 disintegrates, the Pac-12 will be able to cherry pick from the remnants, and expand to a Pac-16, with CU renewing some old Big 8/12 rivalries (16%, 39 Votes)

CU picks up a commitment from a three-star defensive back from California, Simeon Harris. Thoughts?
  • I guess I trust the staff. Harris only played two games last fall, and his recruiting profile has been improving after attending summer camps. Fingers crossed CU got a hidden gem (58%, 140 Votes)
  • Broken record time ... four offers, all from the Mountain West. This Class continues to swim in mediocrity. I had hopes that this staff would raise CU's recruiting profile, but it isn't happening (31%, 75 Votes)
  • Good on several fronts. It's good to finally have a commitment from California, and it's nice to see the Buffs loading up on defensive backs (five from this Class) (11%, 26 Votes)

Alabama head coach brags to Texas high school coaches that his QB is going to close to $1 million in NIL money. Thoughts?
  • All those who said that NIL was about fairness, and not about recruiting advantages for the haves, go sit in the corner. The genie is out of the bottle, and collegiate sports will never be the same (68%, 183 Votes)
  • Good for the young man. The player is only receiving what the market will bear. If fools and their money want to be parted in exchange for endorsements from an unproven quarterback, so what? (20%, 53 Votes)
  • A sophomore without a start, and one touchdown in mop up duty - already a millionaire? Thanks, NCAA and Congress for not coming up with realistic rules for Name, Image and Likeness uses (12%, 32 Votes)

Are the CU cornerbacks a strength or a liability heading into the 2021 season?
  • A mixed bag. Gonzalez has true star potential (and will be an NFL pick down the road), and Blackmon is good. If any of the backups and/or incoming freshman can show they can play, CU will be fine (84%, 185 Votes)
  • A definite strength. As DC Wilson noted, Christian Gonzalez is "on the verge of having a breakout year", and Mekhi Blackmon is solid. Other Pac-12 schools wish they had such solid starters (10%, 23 Votes)
  • A weakness. Blackmon has shown a propensity to be injured, and the backups are - to put it generously - untested. Fingers crossed on every down that Gonzalez and Blackmon don't get hurt (6%, 13 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??? 🙂
