Had it not been for injuries the answer would be Craig Ochs and the only debate we would be having is who the 2nd best is.
Put Darian Hagan on a pre 1988 or post 1994 CU team and we'd not be having this conversation. Hagan was an individual contributor on a TEAM. Without the rest of that team he wouldnt have had the success thats being attributed to him. He was in the right place at the right time.
Those other guys on the list, excepting Stewart and Detmer, are higher stat wise largely because they lacked team and had it placed on their shoulders.

Pffff. Couldn’t even play through a little illness.

Whoa, if there is a line for good taste, you are dancing on it....

I don’t want to live in a world where we can’t laugh at cancer.
Not Sure about carcinogen comedy.
If anybody actually took my post seriously, I apologize. I can’t imagine how anybody could possibly look at that and think I was serious.
. . . and the CU dorms.
I didn't think you were serious, for the record. I wasn't offended, it just struck me as one of those jokes that makes you go, "oh my".

I’m way too young to remember the greats as I was born in 85. I can’t remember Hagan but my 1 memory will always be Stewart and the miracle at Michigan. It’s my first real lifelong memory that I have and Stewart will always be my favorite and the best I can remember watching up to now.
I was pretty young when Hagan was playing but watched him quite a bit. That's really when I started following CU was about the '88 season, maybe a year before that. For the offense they were running at the time, Hagan was as good as it gets.

Darian Hagan won a nc and was undefeated against nebraska and oklahoma in an era when that was the standard. Case closed.
However, I still think we win the nc in 95 if Koy Detmer doesnt tear his acl in a freak play against a&m. We were a few stupid mistakes away in 96, too, and the killer mistakes in 96 weren’t on Koy. That 96 team drove me crazy.
Kordell did not play very well against Nebraska in 93 and especially 94, and that cost the best team in school history a national championship.

Rugged only laughs at cancer jokes if they’re funny, so no.
I’m working with a very limited set of source material. I’ll do better next time.
I doubt it.

Hmmmmm...........I gotta go Hagan as the best-he was the QB during the best two year stretch in the history of our program. My top 5 would look something like this though.....
1. Hagan
2. Slash (simply because he didn't beat Nebraska in 1994-that team might have been more talented than '89 or '90 was, and probably would have won another Natty were it not for the loss to the Corn)
3. Pesavento (He started 62-36. Enough said)
4. Klatt (Tough dude, and he beat NU at least once)
5. Sefo (Gotta put this kid on here, even at 5-he was such a big part of the turnaround that led to 2016)

Was one of the best performances by a Buff ever! Never expected that game out of him. Absolutely hate to see what happened to him after the accident.
