I don't think it was buffet style but I could be wrong on that part. I think they would have mentioned it if it was.

Back in the day, I remember my friends coming back comatose stuffed from training table. I can't wrap my head around some sort of low cal diet for the players. Then again, this is 21st century CU athletics, and we've done dumber stuff.
When it's combined for all sports, it has to also have more options. If the same food options and portions are offered to a female XC runner as a football OL, I don't think it takes an expert in food science to realize that would be fvcking stupid, lazy and going on the cheap.
Really not worth getting riled up over, from my experience and pov anyway. There’s always going to be some whining, no they’re not getting fed like XC girls
There are a thousand other issues that need our focused attention and emails/pressure dedicated toward.

Maybe, but boy am I hungry now.
I actually ended up going to an Indian food buffet for lunch today and it was fantastic.
Jealous.
On a related note, did I ever tell you I worked at an Indian restaurant?
They were really secretive about their spice blend. Before they'd let me in the kitchen, I had to sign their standard naan disclosure agreement.
That's not a way to curry favor with your new employees.
Well what are they samosa do?
It’s the off-season
Knew a guy who played for aTm back in the 60’s. He was one of their first black players. He invited a fellow student to the dinner table. It was buffet style. When they began there was a bowl of vitamins for the players. JT grabbed one and his friend asked, “JT, what are you taking that for?” JT said, “They are vitamins the coaches want us to take.” His friend, a veterinarian student, said, “Umm, JT. Those aren’t vitamins. Those are animal growth hormones.” JT had noticed he was getting bigger.
I too was at an Indian buffet for lunch. Was awesome.
Quit Rogan Joshin' around!
Puns are for Vindaloo-sers.
You ever seen "Alive" before? Ethan Hawk disagrees about hope. Well, they had to eat dead ass of the human variety. Can't say I blame him, some of them lived.
UCLA’s food is gross mismanagement and should NOT be used as an example.
Portions are different.
She should focus on the transfer rules and NIL. Way more important. We’re just looking for extra reasons to complain when we already have plenty

Yeah, UCLA is not the standard, and I also agree this shouldn’t be a focus, but it’s also a fairly easy change.
I think the main point is: "look at everything we do, see where we can improve, and some things are easy upgrades which will help us get where we want to be."
Compared to NIL, to quality assistant coaches, to recruiting budgets, etc. etc. food service is a minor thing but these kinds of details are exactly why our program is where it is at and why UCLA is ranked and on their way to the B1G.
No, the meals aren't going to get you at top 25 recruiting class but these are the kinds of things that cost you recruits, that cost you kids staying with the program and having good attitudes. The recruits know kids who are already here. Who wants to hear "Good school but the food is crap."
It's an indicator of how seriously a school takes athletics, of how willing they are to do what is needed to win.
Does this explain why we seem slow especially in the second halves? Are we simply “bonking”?
Maybe we have really cheap snacks at halftime…. /s.

Some people don't have enough complaints that are already there. It's in their blood
I don't think we've had snacks at halftime since Embree stopped bringing orange slices from home.
$5,000,000 would be $45 per meal for 100 players eating 3 meals a day every day for a year.
They don’t cater every meal. No way.
