• Finding a rushing attack. CU can't last in the nation in rushing in 2025 and have hopes of repeating a nine-win season. Be it the line, the backs, or the calls, the running game has to emerge (85%, 154 Votes)
• Play-calling. "Hero ball" with Shedeur and four NFL-worthy wide receivers was fun in 2025, but it isn't going to work in 2025. Pick a QB, and build your offense around him (10%, 18 Votes)
• Leading a coaching staff with very little experience. Marshall Faulk and Andre Gurode were splashy hires, but they bring precious little coaching experience to the table (5%, 10 Votes)

• I'm just glad to have CU players be part of the conversation. How many times has CU had one (or none) at the Combine. Now, CU is one of the teams getting the most attention. I love it! (61%, 91 Votes)
• Not really. There is so much time between now and the April draft, and a player's "wingspan" isn't something I feel I need to pay much attention to in March (31%, 47 Votes)
• Yes! Shedeur and Travis are making headlines without participating, and CU's wide receiver prospects are showing out, raising their draft stock (8%, 12 Votes)

• Way too early to know. How much will the capital partner be giving each school? What will they expect in exchange down the road? How will this affect realignment prospects? Many unanswered questions (87%, 95 Votes)
• Good idea. With the House settlement monetary requirements and the ever evolving need for new dollars, it's good that the Big 12 is looking outside the box to raise extra dollars (6%, 7 Votes)
• A bad idea. Selling the conference's soul in exchange for dollars today is a bad business model, and could well backfire in the Big 12's faces. The ghost of Larry Scott looms large here (7%, 7 Votes)

• It's huge. Every national combine story includes "CU" and "Heisman Trophy winner" in the text. You can't tell me that isn't helping with recruits, donors, and advertisers (51%, 71 Votes)
• It helps, but not all that much. Those who are focused on the Combine are more interested in where their NFL team is going to pick up their next star, not the college the player comes from (26%, 36 Votes)
• It's very important, but not as important as CU's Pro Timing day will be in a few weeks. The national attention then will help other Buff prospects get some ink leading up to the Draft (23%, 33 Votes)

• Medium. Staub is the only quarterback on the roster who has taken a snap at CU, and Staub didn't leave in December when he had the chance. I'm guessing he'll stick it out and stay a Buff (61%, 109 Votes)
• Low. Staub started the '23 game against Utah, and deserves the opportunity to play. I expect that Staub will work hard this spring, and then transfer to a school which will give him a chance to play (29%, 52 Votes)
• High. There are only three quarterbacks on the roster, and one is a true freshman. Salter and Lewis have received the headlines, but Staub has two years experience in the Shumur system (10%, 18 Votes)
