The 5430 Alliance Press Release Announces New Campaign: "Stampede Into the Big 12". Thoughts?
  • I'm just glad we have Coach Prime in Boulder. Without Coach Prime, and the buzz (and dollars) he brings to the table, CU would be in dire straits, both on and off the field (59%, 79 Votes)
  • I love it. I love the fact that there are smart people who are actively raising money for CU and its athletes, and keeping CU competitive in this brave new world of NIL and Collectives (25%, 33 Votes)
  • Nice slogan, but how much money will 5430 raise? How much is being raised compared to other schools in the Big 12? In the Power Four? Without some transparency, we don't know if this is working (16%, 22 Votes)

Trevor Woods has gained 20 pounds, and says he's comfortable with his move to linebacker. Thoughts?
  • I'm a fan of Woods as a holdover who made the adjustment to the new team. Not sure if he is the "next Brian Urlacher", as Coach Prime suggested, but he should be good in his new role (52%, 108 Votes)
  • I'm excited about the possibilities here. Woods was an excellent safety, but pressed into duty at linebacker late last year. I'll be interested to see how well he does this fall (36%, 74 Votes)
  • Not exactly putting lipstick on a pig, but the truth is that the coaches tried to bring in better linebackers through the Portal, but failed. The linebacker corps is still the weakest unit on the team (12%, 26 Votes)

What is your interest level in Fall Camp?
  • High. The off-season is finally behind us, and the 2024 campaign has officially begun. I'm looking forward to stories and interviews about my Buffs. Bring on the season! (62%, 121 Votes)
  • Medium. I'll be looking for stories about how the team is doing, and, hopefully, no stories about injuries. Excited for the season, but this is just the prelude (24%, 47 Votes)
  • Low. No coverage inside the practices ... short, almost scripted interviews ... nothing really to see hear. Wake me up in five weeks, when the season really starts (14%, 26 Votes)

New chancellor Justin Schwartz: “I’ve never ascribed to the win-at-all-cost (mentality)". Thoughts?
  • Sounds right. “I’m a fan, but I’m also a fan of doing things the right way", is about what you would hope to hear from your new Chancellor (43%, 75 Votes)
  • All I can say about Schwartz right now is that since he is a diehard Cubs fan, he knows what it means to finally win it all ... Plus, his name is not DiStefano, which is a step in the right direction (30%, 52 Votes)
  • Sounds like a red flag to me. In this new world of collegiate athletics, where nice guys not only finish last, but risk being relegated, CU needs a Chancellor who understands it's kill or be killed (27%, 46 Votes)

Which aspect of the 100-page House agreement to you will have the most significant long-term implications?
  • The $2.78 billion in back pay, with the NCAA formalizing schools having to come up with $22 million every year ... with a 4% increase every year. How many schools will be able to keep up? (45%, 48 Votes)
  • That the issue of Title IX has not been finalized, either for the back pay or future payments. That 900-pound gorilla could still derail everything which has been agreed to previously (37%, 39 Votes)
  • The scholarship limit of 105 football players. Going from 85 to 105, but taking out walk-ons, will have a huge impact on the game. No more stacking rosters with "walk-ons" like Cormani McClain, SEC (18%, 19 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??? 🙂
