NCAA: Half of the Pac-12 players who have entered the Transfer Portal have been left unsigned. Thoughts?
  • I just hope that these players will stand as a cautionary tale for future players that it might be better to stick with the school that recruited them, and not seek out greener pastures (49%, 128 Votes)
  • Sounds about right. You can't have 1,500 players in the Transfer Portal and have chairs for everyone when the music stops. The system is broken, and players are finding that out the hard way (37%, 96 Votes)
  • Interesting that over half of the CU players have found new homes. I don't know if that means that CU players have greater value, or if CU needed to a better job of keeping its stars (14%, 39 Votes)

ESPN has Karl Dorrell as one of its two Pac-12 coaches entering the 2022 season on the "hot seat". Do you agree?
  • Too early to tell. The roster isn't yet set, and we don't know what the new offense will look like. CU can't afford to buy out another coach, but there does need to be some signs of progress (38%, 134 Votes)
  • Not really. There will be additional pressure to win, but with a fresh set of coaches and a tough schedule, CU will really have to crater for Dorrell to be let go (38%, 132 Votes)
  • Definitely. You don't go from 4-2 to 4-8 and lose a half dozen starters without facing extra scrutiny. Dorrell has his players and his coaches - time to produce (24%, 85 Votes)

CU men's and women's basketball teams go 0-4 over the weekend. Thoughts?
  • Three of the four losses were to nationally ranked teams, with the fourth one an overtime loss on the road. Tough weekend, to be sure, but not time to panic - at least not yet (47%, 95 Votes)
  • I have more faith in the women's team, actually. The men's team is just too young to be consistent winners, while the women's team has better balance (and some more winnable games coming) (28%, 57 Votes)
  • This is what the next few months will look like. Tad Boyle's team has a low ceiling this year, and the women's team has gone from 13-0 to 13-4. A lot more "L's" coming for both teams (25%, 51 Votes)

Rate your level of concern about the current state of flux in the CU roster?
  • High. CU has lost a half dozen starters - including a captain. There aren't enough quality proven players left on the roster to be excited about the 2022 season (47%, 143 Votes)
  • Medium. CU has lost some good players, but seems to be replacing them with quality players. Still some work to do before next season to fill holes, but I am cautiously optimistic (36%, 110 Votes)
  • Low. There needed to be some serious attrition just to keep the roster close to the 85-man limit, and most of the lost players will never play for a Power Five school again (17%, 49 Votes)

If you were contacted about contributing to a CU NIL fund or event, what would your reaction be?
  • It would depend on the event/business opportunity. I'm not opposed to assisting players, but I'm not prepared to just write a check - I'd like to know that I'm getting the best bang for the buck (40%, 83 Votes)
  • Sorry, but I'm not going to participate. Various reasons: a) no funds to assist; b) opposed on principle to paying for pay; c) other (39%, 82 Votes)
  • I'm in! I'm waiting for some booster or business to set up an NIL account which can be used to assist CU student-athletes ... and hopefully improve the quality of CU's rosters as a result (21%, 44 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??? 🙂
