Colorado added some nice pieces out of the portal. They have incrementally improved their OL through portal each year.
Zarian McGill (La Tech), Zylon Crisler (Illinois), Aki Ogunbiyi (TAMU), Mana Taimani (Ole Miss) and Xavier Hill (Memphis)
I am not saying this is a world beater OL but they are getting better.
They replaced Shedeur with the highly rated QB out of Liberty and replaced Hunter at WR with highly rated WR out of Tulsa.
They have a shot at being better than last year.
They could be, but not in week 3. The Coogs will roll.
I canât understand why any of you would concede a loss before the season even starts. I think we can beat anyone on our schedule and unless proven otherwise, I am not conceding a loss to any team. Odds are, we will lose a couple of games, but if we do, I donât know who they would be.
Short clip but looks like offense working over 1st team defense on this run.

Zeon looks on this throw.

Coaches Fritz is deceiving players. Who commits only not to get a fair chance? Im sure itâs not just the QB position.
Are the other qbs THAT bad?
I recall he mentioned Carlisle and Ale recently but I wouldnât be surprised if a few guys transferred.
Iâm guessing Carlisle is gonna redshirt while McMickle and Ale transfer. Maybe Sock and Wijay stick around or maybe they transfer too.
That doesnât sound like CWF that I know of ⊠but maybe so and, if so, will ultimately get around to recruits and cause problems within the team. I hope itâs not so.
Gang,
Is it conceivable that everyone got a fair shake, but that those two stood out as better and are getting the most reps as a result?
Just asking!
New OC, gotta get the guys most likely to play up to date. Thatâs how I see it.
No itâs spring Football. The spring game will have split rosters. Meaning each roster has a depth chart. Even practices could be split with groups at different times to give guys fair reps. Sports is about competition and getting better each day. Not ultimately deciding a guy fate prematurely. It may be a task to get better while watching others get meaningful reps.
Iâm completely against seniority being factored in when it comes to the depth chart. Too many times, âexperienceâ, even when it is bad experience, is used as reasoning for putting one guy above another. That said, having the presumptive starter CW, and the other most experienced guy in the QB room ZC, taking the majority of the snaps is the most logical way to go about things right now.
Iâm sure the other guys will start getting reps once the system is more familiar and it can work itself out that way.
Hunter was a dominant 2 way player and the best player in the country last year. He single handedly won a couple of games. He isnt replaceable. Colorado takes a step down without him.
Meh, he was incredible at being able to play well on both sides of the ball.
He wasnât the top receiver in the country.
He might have been a top 5 db in the country.
It would be very, very difficult to replace him with one player but you can with two.
He is with us.
Heads up. Youâre talking to either a relative of McMickle or the man himself.
I think his best attribute for CU was that he won them a whole bunch of games that they should have lost. They won most of their schedule vs teams with mediocre and losing records. As soon as they faced a team worth their salt(BYU), they got embarrassed. We even did better against BYU, which should tell you something.
Colorado is really not that good. Hype train merchants.
CWF is giving everyone snaps, but it is reasonable to assume that the former and future starters would be given more. In a taped interview with Fritz that I saw on TOS CWF was talking positively about the abilities of Weighman, Uli, and Carlisle in running plays. If he is seeing their abilities in running the plays, one must assume that they are actually getting reps.
It was soooo difficult to Judge ZV since his line never gave him 3 seconds to stand in the pocket.
ZV extending plays was just him running for his life.
He was doing well early on the TD:INT ratio but then started pressing later in the season.
I donât expect him to start in front of Weigman, but he has some great skills.
What I like about the team is how many OLinemen we picked up out of the portal. THIs will be the differmaker
Senior WR Mekhi Mews interviews some of the new guys in the receiversâ room:
So you listened to an interview with CWF praising Ule, Carlisle and Weigman. But Zeon is taking just as many reps as Weigman. If you heard correctly the math isnât adding up on the field. Zeon is the best running back on the roster taking a bunch of QB reps. He has a chance to get drafted as a RB. I donât see any league in football that would start him at QB for a season. Not a suffisticated one atleast. Need to prepare the QB that can accurately throw and run behind your starter, just in case.
