It is so amazing that even five years ago we would never be having a discussion about CU men's basketball, coupled with yet another trip to The Dance (as if its a given, rather than an illusory goal) and a possible top 2 finish in the PAC 12, much less any other conference.
Man, have they come a long way in a short amount of time. Go Buffs!!!!!
Here's to the football team turning the tide.

To second Buffbobby's point, there is a lot of upside for Spencer coming back for another year.
Granted there is a chance of getting injured but that's like in life in general. If he goes in the 2nd round, who knows if he even gets anything other than a minimal contract with hardly any guaranteed money. It would almost be no different if he came back and got reinjured.
Unfortunately, for Spencer, this year's draft class is expected to be stacked high to low. Coming off an ACL its hard to imagine him staying in the first round of an already deep class, and likely getting deeper as the year goes on and players making a name for themselves.
Next year, however, the class is not expected to be so talented making it more likely that he gets into the Top 15.
In the end, an injury can happen anywhere/anytime. If he can get guaranteed money as a 1st round pick it makes sense but otherwise he might as well come back to school, take a slight risk of injury and likely improve his draft status to a lottery pick.
Just my $.02.

Vk - what's up with your dorman infatuation? I think your bromance is a bit misplaced. The fact that he hasn't gotten any snaps with either Embree or Mac should say something about his ability. On top of the fact that he hasn't transferred anywhere. Look at the facts.
My two cents, I think it's a great idea to bring in sefo. Buffs are rebuilding so there is no reason to keep him out. see what he does, especially next week against charleston southern.
Go buffs.

could we play CSU again? Any rule preventing that from happening. If nothing else, it would be an easy game to get organized.

Is there any rule against playing CSU again????? This would be an easy game to get organized and would drum up some interest in the state.

Agree with Saheeb, what a poor, poor decision. I still say kinda of like Burks who could have used another year to polish up his game. Granted Alec was a lottery pick but he is still toiling on the Utah bench and not getting much PT putting his future, post rookie contract, in jeopardy. I hope Andrew i ready to spend quite a bit of time in the D-League, if not overseas. Sad to say but I think he will come to regret this decision.
Go Buffs. Still Top 25 next year.

IMO that line of questioning is completely unconscionable. It's like if we were in the 1940s and someone asked a player whether he was a Jew or whether a dark-skinned player was perhaps part black, as opposed to native american. It is unacceptable, abhorant and even to an exent bigoted. I'm glad it came out and I hope the league investigates. I also hope it doesn't hurt Kasa's draft status, since he definitely doesn't deserve to internalize someone else's small-mindedness and sexism.

It's one thing to make an error during a live game, its another thing to make a mistake while taking ten minutes to review video evidence without the distraction of the players, speed and coaches. No excuses.
I just can not understand how they could have botched the call unless they never saw the side angle that clearly showed .1 of a second left, unless something more nefarious occurred like doctoring of the video.
