    Falls for the bait, doesn’t really have a touch on what’s happening. With a team that literally post videos everyday this shouldn’t be happening. Get a Colorado person to host

  • Love it!

    Really enjoy Borba’s analysis and the guests he brings on. His Xs and Os are insightful, but not homerish. He’s a great addition to the other Buffs podcasts. I enjoy them all and highly recommend Borba’s show.

  • This is OK

    This is an ok podcast about the University of Colorado. The host isn’t local so how plugged into the team can he really be and understand what’s really going on in the program. What I can say is unlike other podcasts about CU, the host is objective. The guests here gets are decent.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

MAJOR: Recruiting Insider Says Deion Sanders Can CONTEND With New Recruiting Approach
Q: Can Colorado ascend to being one of the better teams in the Big 12 with this approach?
Yes, if they continue signing 20+ high school players per cycle and strategically add key portal pieces, they could become a consistent bowl-team with a strong recruiting network.
MAJOR: Recruiting Insider Says Deion Sanders Can CONTEND With New Recruiting Approach
Q: How can the portal complement a high school class in a perfect world?
The portal should fill remaining holes after a strong high school class while keeping the program's culture intact, avoiding over-reliance on portal players and aiming for a balanced, sustainable roster build.
WOW: CBS Predicts Colorado Will Get BLOWN OUT by Georgia Tech
Q: Why do you think this is such a lopsided prediction?
The prediction points to Colorado's extensive turnover—new OC, new quarterback, and a large coaching staff overhaul—creating an adjustment period that CBS may view as too steep for a Week 1 matchup against a more cohesive Georgia Tech squad.
BIG 12 SQUAD - Kansas State FIRES Jerome Tang | How this IMPACTS Colorado
Q: Why on earth would they ever have to pay Jerome Tang his buyout?
He was fired for cause, and there's debate about whether that rationale is justified based on the team's performance.
BIG 12 SQUAD - Arizona is ROLLING | Can Colorado CHALLENGE the Wildcats
Q: How do you think Arizona kept Noah Fafita?
There was loyalty that Fafita feels towards the Arizona fans and coaching staff.
