That smoke originated here.
Forgive me. I have a job and can't be on all buffs 24/7 365
I was just letting you know. There’s a thread with all the information if you want more context behind what was shared on 247
The Buffs didn’t really run anything gimmicky that I could tell. Most of this season was really bland and lacked any creativity
No worries. I went there before I went here. Thanks.

The OL situation is a problem. Neither guy was great but without reinforcements that group is taking a step back right now, which, while hard to imagine, is terrifyingly true right now. You could say the same about our QB room getting even thinner. It's late to be getting another 2024 prep, but it's a new world out there.
Sure. If you're worried that we won't be able to upgrade from what we had. But if that was going to be the case, our OL wasn't going to be good enough to win in 2024 anyway. When a position group was historically bad, attrition is a good thing.
I would say that Wells is a loss in the sense that it would be nice to have a guy who has played multiple seasons at this level around to compete and ideally be a very good backup. In the former version of college football that would be a thing that would likely happen, but this is what we get when players have a lot more power. Roster depth at most programs is taking a big hit, IMO.
Some attrition is a good thing for sure. Not all attrition. I'm not sure Wells is good attrition. But I'm reserving judgment on that situation as I relax in the bliss of certain doom.
My belief is that Center is the most important position on a college OL. So, with the OL being that bad I'm unable to think of Wells as even an adequate starter. He's not strong enough to control the point of attack or set a pocket. He's also not shown the quickness to get to the 2nd level, pull, or make an impact in the screen game. But, yeah, he started a lot of games and was better than other options CU has had at C these past few years. Maybe he would have been adequate if he'd committed to a big offseason in the weight room.
That's where I'm at.
as of right now, I would be ecstatic to have ZERO Olinemen on this team. Do we need bodies? yes. do we need ANY of the current bodies? no.
I over the last few years, the line has been a strange group. 2020, they seemed to have been handling business and provided Broussard with a healthy amount of yardage, as well as buying time for Noyer to do his thing. 2021, pretty much the same line, but Rod-sled led the charge…and after the aTm game, that position group sucked eggs. There were tell tale signs, like Northern Colorado abusing the tackles. 22 was a little better under DeVan, but that line was not better than the 2015-2020 lines.
Hit us with a recap
Rome was an asshat
Impact starters/heavy rotation players on dozens of winning & trad. power teams are rushing to the portal in record numbers. Yet, there are no think pieces or coonery teevee shows featuring whiny obscure walk-ons about how all of these coaches are losing control or their ships sinking.
Real positive. Nothing but good talk about CP. Loves the opportunity to work with DH. Praised Prime for the positive energy he brings. Wanted him (DH) so he can recruit the LA area and southern Cali. Can't help but like the guy after listening to him. I will watch San Diego st. out of the corner of my eye now.
