Report: Former CU Assistant Coach Karl Dorrell to be CU's next head coach. Thoughts?
  • Have yet to form an opinion. First, we need to see if this is actually happening. I then need to see if Dorrell can bring in a good staff and retain CU's players (48%, 308 Votes)
  • Dorrell has CU and Pac-12 ties, and took the Bruins to five bowl games in five seasons. Nice resume, and he won't be bolting to the SEC/Big Ten or NFL. I'm up for this hire! (31%, 194 Votes)
  • You're kidding, right? From potential splash hires to a former assistant who was fired by UCLA, and has been in the NFL for 11 of the past 12 years? Yuck (21%, 134 Votes)

What to you is the most eye-opening factoid about Tad Boyle's 2019-20 Buffs?
  • That CU has appeared in a total of 51 weekly AP polls in school history ... with 12 of those appearances this year (with the 12 the most ever in one season) (40%, 111 Votes)
  • That CU, while it has hosted ESPN's basketball GameDay, has never hosted a CBS regular season broadcast ... before this Saturday's game against UCLA (2:00 p.m., MT) (33%, 92 Votes)
  • That this team, with four regular season games, the Pac-12 tournament, and the NCAA tournament to go ... is tied for the 7th-most wins in a season in school history (21) - 24 wins being the most-ever (27%, 77 Votes)

Report: Steve Sarkisian withdraws his name from consideration, receives a raise as Alabama's offensive coordinator. Thoughts?
  • Twice in a week the glaring discrepancy in revenues between CU and Big Ten/SEC teams has been laid bare before the nation. It sickens me that my team cannot compete financially for coaching talent (37%, 203 Votes)
  • I'm wondering if Sarkisian was ever really a serious candidate. Sounds to me like he was just playing CU for a raise. If he really wanted to be a head coach, wouldn't he have jumped at the chance? (33%, 180 Votes)
  • We can ponder the why's and wherefore's later ... I just want to know what Rick George and Lance Carl have as Plan B ... and I want to know soon! (30%, 168 Votes)

Assuming Eric Bieniemy is off the table, which of the following reported interviewees would be your pick to replace Mel Tucker?

  • CU interim head coach Darrin Chiaverini (18%, 123 Votes)
  • Air Force head coach Troy Calhoun (10%, 70 Votes)
  • Cal head coach Justin Wilcox (10%, 65 Votes)
  • Former UCLA head coach Jim Mora (4%, 24 Votes)
  • Former Wisconsin/Arkansas head coach Bret Bielema (3%, 20 Votes)

Report: "No major traction" between CU and Eric Bieniemy. Thoughts?
  • Makes sense. Bieniemy is a year, two years at the most, away from an NFL head coaching position. That's his trajectory, so CU & Bieniemy wouldn't have been a good fit (59%, 301 Votes)
  • We can't worry about someone who doesn't want to be in Boulder (or has a better opportunity coming). We should have our man by the end of the week, and the Bieniemy flirtation will be a memory (35%, 180 Votes)
  • I'm disappointed. CU is in need of a splash hire in order to get back on the positive side of the national conversation. This is another black eye for the Buffs (6%, 31 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??? 🙂
