All of these Buffs minus H. Williams and Salter entered the portal. Still 2.5 days left. The last day players can enter is Jan 16 but they don’t have to sign by that date, it can be after it closes.
If there were betting odds for Buffs portal entries:
H. Williams -110
T. Timmons -110
S. Okunlola -110
K. Salter -110
D. Miller +110
D. McKinney +250
J. Seaton +250
H. Williams -110

Report from UF that Seaton is asking for $2.5M. I had the Buffs paying $2M in 2026, the highest on the team along with JuJu.
2x more than the next highest L. Johnson, Attia, and now Hughley at $1M.

As I was saying. This guy said if you’re a dawg come to Colorado. Then bolts after one bad year. Pathetic.
Half way thought the portal, Jo Williams and JuJu have been active on social media recruiting and pumping up the base. Leaders. Love seeing it.
JSeat? Nothing. Crickets. So lame. What a disappointment.

Considering ~0.01% of NIL deals involve legitimate corporations acquiring the rights to a players name, image and likeness we can conclude the CSC is useless.

The thing I like most about the OT Bo Hughley portal signing, dude is a dawg. Kirby specifically called him out for showing heart at UGA. That is not a JAG (just a guy) signing.

Portal closes in one week and the Buffs need (in order of priority):
-S
-IOL
-DT
And another LB. Based on my own payroll estimate of ~$22m they can add another 8-10 fair value players ($200k) and stay within that range.

Good write up. Prime and CU deserve props for acing their portal homework. I do wonder why other programs didn’t try to use this exact portal playbook, or they did, but Prime and the pull of the Buffs brand is stronger and won out in a lot of H2H recruiting battles.

What a win by the Buffs! Props to Tad bc I would have been ejected for losing my shit. Investigate those refs, that was absolutely ridiculous.

Portal open, lot of scheduled visits announced. Ok, but CU has just 40 players on roster. The Buffs need half a rosters worth of players signed.
Really interesting to see if the traditional “scheduled visits with 3 schools” approach works with the new portal window. I bet it doesn’t.

Happy New Years Buffs. With Merritt transferring, we’re in a CFB limbo state. Until there’s:
-Multi-year, enforceable contracts
-Some realignment consolidation
Things are not good. Don’t get excited about anyone. Hopefully our Buffs are on the right side of what comes next bc this ain’t it.

Fernando Lovo is 37. Marion is 38. Livingston is 39. Idk if we’ve ever seen three of the five most important athletic roles at CU under 40yrs old.

Tad’s man defense allows everyone to get backed into the paint, without any help, and a few pump fakes later it’s an easy bucket. To top it off, the perimeter d is garbage, too. No strategy or toughness.
I’ll put it this way, CU lost to a team that spends $0 in NIL. This is not an NIL problem.

Malone is sabotaging the program. I know Tad sees him as a project but it’s time to give it up already.

I regret spending a second listening to this. These YouTube channels do not have any inside info about CU. Just babbling to fill air time.

There’s no way CU can have Neely go around saying how much Prime knows if the Buffs don’t win 7-8 games next year. I have faith but this is getting old.

Saw some drama regarding Byard and if he was worth the money to keep. Only 3 defensive players I would go to bat for: Byard, McPherson and Merritt. Yes, should have paid.

List of seniors where I don’t know if they have another year of eligibility left:
-A. McNeill
-J. Brown
-A. Barnes
-R. Hughes
-D. Taylor
-S. Price
-S. Brown
And the SR OL. If Meyers is entering the portal, then that means he *thinks* he has eligibility left. They might too.

What I think happened: Prime gave players a deadline to be in or out and today was the deadline.

Aside from Byard, McPherson and O. Miller, there’s not another portal entry that is irreplaceable. CU has lost depth pieces off of a pretty bad team.

DE Alex McPherson hopping in the portal is a code red for CU and its ability to fundraise and retain talent.
