Let's go!
Squad!
And to you live from the Xfinity Studio,
it is DNBR Buffs Live.
And in this week on high notes, the energy.
And from this football program right now, they are radiating.
They are.
I love it.
Incredible.
Scotty, what's rule number one?
I never trust it.
I believe it's don't be no.
Oh yeah, that too.
I guess.
This, that, that well off.
Just altered the course of my life.
Look, Bucky kind of teased it.
He was like, this is like given 2024 back from the practice.
And then he puts out the video and...
What do you say?
That was a...
But John T. Wester, Jimmy Horn, Shiloh Sanders type practice.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, the vibes are through the roof right now.
And I think that's everything you want to see through, you know, three spring practices through a week.
It just feels and sounds looks a lot different at practice so far.
Yeah.
You need that.
I was like texting the link to my friends.
You have to watch.
Let's go, man.
It's different now.
This team is different.
And we'll play some clips and stuff later.
But if you just watch, you could watch the video with a blindfold on and know that it's different.
Yes.
Because of just the sounds, the sounds of the pads popping.
But more importantly, the sounds of how engaged everyone is.
Everyone's cheering on their teammates.
Yeah, definitely.
Celebrating each of their achievements, the coaches are chirping at each other.
Yeah.
It's...
That looks like a hell of a lot of fun.
It'll be on that team right now.
Football should be fun.
It is.
Particularly this time of the year.
And I think just as important as these players kind of coming with a different attitude and energy,
I think the coaches are bringing a different whole vibe as well.
Like, you can't watch a well off practice video and not hear Dante Carter in the back screaming about something.
And a good way.
You're the same.
Like, even turret.
And that's what you need the defensive line room to take on the mentality of.
Brennan Mirings bringing the juice.
Like Chris Marv.
That's who he is.
Yeah, as a former linebacker or whatnot.
So I think the coaches are bringing it just as much if not more than the players right now, which is what you need.
Absolutely.
All right.
Let's get into it.
Let's start off by playing the quick reel.
Here's some of the highlights from today's pressers.
And then we'll dig into what Coach Prime said, the players.
And then some takeaways from what we saw on the field.
That's a...
That's an old brittle when I was a kid that we used to saying.
He'd be coming around the mountain when he comes.
He'd be coming around the mountain.
He'd be coming over.
That's who he is.
And we looking.
And we waiting for him to come around the mountain when you come.
But I feel like, by the time we snap that first snap, the Georgia Tech, he'd be coming around the mountain.
He'll be straight.
And we have a couple quarterbacks on the staff.
Well, I'm sorry.
On the roster that can play this game.
That can really play this game.
And they're applying pressure.
He was the first player I met here.
And he was at our dinner that Friday night, the very start of it.
So he definitely welcomed me here.
And I was texting him before I came on my visit.
So just the fact that he reached out showed a lot of interest.
And the talent that kid has is really crazy.
He can make any throw.
He's a smart kid.
And he's a very good quarterback.
He's a guy that understands the game very well.
So it was definitely a good part where, as a receiver, I mean, you want to go into an offense with a good...
Offense a coordinator and a good quarterback.
And Colorado checked both those boxes.
Points per game.
Everybody in the interview, they average over 30 points per game.
30 points per game is our threshold.
When we score 30 points per game, we win.
When we don't, we lose.
When we hold people under a certain number as well, we win.
So that was huge.
So everyone we brought in to interview, that was that.
But I need toughness, that mentality.
It's a much better room.
Okay, it's a room that has accomplished a lot more.
It's a room that is very unselfish.
I love these young men.
They blend together, but they got that thing about them, man, that they got that thing.
They're not jealous of one another.
They love the practice.
They love the work.
And Joseph was talking, they're talking junk on crutches.
How you doing that?
Why are you talking junk on crutches, man?
You go get hit out of here.
You know, you're easy target.
He's like, coach, you know, that competitive spirit in me.
But I like that.
I love it.
So that room, to me, is tremendously explosive.
You know, when we talk about what we lost, make sure you talk about what we gained.
Because we gained a heck of a lot more.
I think three times more than what we may have lost in the process.
And I don't call it a loss.
I call it light.
This is new college light now.
You know, a man jacket moved on up like the Jefferson.
They don't play a lot of man, so I begin a little frustrated.
But now he's going to bring a lot of, a lot of confidence to our defense.
You can see it out there already at practice.
They flying around, making plays, stripping the ball out, something that, you know,
we love to see an office inside knowing that our defense is going to go out there and make a play.
So I just know he's going to get those guys right.
He's already getting them right.
And that defense is going to be something crazy.
That's the only way to really.
All right.
Lots to get into today.
But let's start with this.
I mean, Coach Prime brought this up.
Unprompted in his, in the start of his press conference.
He says, there's been a lot of talk about our staff.
I tell you all every year, the Bible says that.
By Rod and that staff, they comfort me.
And I feel as though we have the best staff that has been assembled in my tenure by far.
Of course, you know, Brennan Mary and Chris Marve being the headliners.
But a lot of staff turnover, lots been talked about it, lots been said about it,
as to why and the reasoning of it at all.
But you mentioned it off the top.
The intensity of practice is just different.
And I think that these new coaches have really injected, injected fun back into Colorado football practice.
But the competitiveness has turned all the way up to 11 as well.
Remember back in 24, we would say like nobody's having more fun than Colorado.
Yep.
We did not say that last year.
No, not at all.
But yeah, they've really made it a lot more fun.
And I think I agree with Coach on in terms of the best staff.
I think that Brennan Mary and the best assistant coach that Coach Prime has had during his tenure here.
So that alone kind of sets a pretty high bar for this group.
And there's a lot of other additions that I like as well.
So yeah, it's going to be fun.
Yeah, I just thought it was interesting.
Obviously, this is the first time we've heard from Coach this off season.
Just getting a window into his thoughts, his process of what he was looking for when he was looking for these new coordinators, right?
And he said, you're mainly looking for coordinators who have that head coach feel.
I want them to be the head coach of the offense, the head coach of the defense.
And I think he nailed that.
And that's what he was looking for.
Because certainly Brennan Mary and his give CEO vibes.
His obviously was a head coach last year.
Took over a program that was 39.
Took him the seven and five in his first year there.
Chris Marvers has been doing this for a while, particularly at the college level, former DC for three years.
Like our first impressions of him.
He seems like somebody who is a CEO type who is going to take complete charge and control of that defensive unit.
Kind of take some of the pressure off Coach Prime.
So hearing that was dope.
We heard in that clip there too.
Coach Prime talking about marrying specifically what drew him to him points per game, right?
Over the last three years, Brennan Mary and his offense is 34.8 points per game across three years.
That'll play.
Yes.
Especially when you consider the fact that since 2024 Colorado, 10 and 0 in games are they scored 30 plus points.
That's a pretty simple formula to try to follow.
It makes sense why he wanted to target Brennan Mary and this kind of innovative offense.
So I love that for a multitude of reasons.
And I think maybe my biggest takeaway is talking about these two coordinators.
It's obviously a massive shift from the previous two coordinators.
Yes.
Robert Livingston and Pat Shermer had NFL backgrounds.
Pat Shermer had encoded in college before joining Colorado staff since 1998.
Robert Livingston had encoded in college before joining Colorado staff since 2011.
That's the 13 year gap.
Chris Marve and Brennan Mary and Combine have 23 years of college coaching experience.
And you know, consecutively consecutively.
Exactly right.
They were coaching last year.
Well, I guess Marve wasn't coaching last year.
Right.
And that's what I asked Coach today.
Like was that an emphasis for you to kind of target more of the college coaching background?
He said he didn't want it.
I want to think admitted off the gate, you know, to start.
But at the end, he goes, when we shift from pros to college, why don't you applaud it?
Why don't you clap for it?
Why don't you announce it?
So clearly there's got to watch the show tomorrow.
Right.
I don't think he's talking personally, but yeah, that is this is a clear shift.
Something that people have been clamoring for, right?
There's still a lot of NFL guys and guys with NFL background on this staff.
But there has been a clear shift, particularly at the top, at the coordinator level,
to get more college experience for this team.
Well, and I think it directly correlates to the energy that we're seeing.
Yeah.
It goes to a coach prime, one of the many, many, many times coach prime has said he doesn't want to coach in the NFL.
Right.
But he talked about like, I don't know if I can like bring myself to motivate,
to try to like motivate some grown man who's making millions and millions of dollars,
trying to tell him that he needs to like get up for practice.
Right.
You know, like there's a different standard expect.
And now some of these guys are making millions and millions.
But there's a different standard expected of professional athletes where it's like,
I shouldn't have to come in here and like, raw, raw, energy coach you guys.
Yes.
Like you're being paid.
And then you're job description to come in here with energy every single day.
And I think that, wow, there are still coaches in the NFL who are going to push for more energy from their players.
Yeah.
I do think that it's just expected in a way that maybe isn't fair to expect of 18, 19, 20 year olds.
Now, even though they're getting paid, they just need to be pushed.
And so when you bring in pro coaches, I don't know if they're quite as equipped to press the right buttons,
the way that they would be now.
So yeah, I think that these young guys, these college coaches that have been brought in are truly bringing the energy
because that's what they're used to having to do.
Yep.
What do you guys?
Bears just got a center.
Yeah.
Garrett Bradbury from the Patriots.
Nice.
I don't know if he's good anymore.
I don't know.
Coming out, by the way.
NC State.
Yep.
Well done.
That's about the transfer class, right?
60 plus new players, including recruits.
He said, these practices have been phenomenal.
Phenomenal.
I'm really thankful and appreciative of what I see now.
And if you watch well off, he called today's practice great, not good, not average, great.
And honestly, I can't remember the last time I heard him say that.
That they had a great practice.
He was complaining about practice all year, last year.
Yeah.
The results spoke for themselves.
Yeah.
Yeah, he said it's specifically, it was great today was because of the mentality that they played with.
Like, guys flying around like guys talking in turban, like we saw coach primary mentioned it today.
He was when I actually saw it in that interview.
Yeah, answer there about the receivers, like JoJo, own crutches, talking mess, the bootcarter, you know what I'm saying?
Like, dude is going back and forth.
There was some, you know, some some hand fighting today as well, that has made the rounds and whatnot.
But that's what you want to see.
I think that's just a sign of a hungry team.
team. The team that's been lifting weights that is ready to get out on the on the practice
field on the grass. And now that there are there, I think making the most of it or trying
to at least and least putting their their best foot forward, they might make some mistakes,
but I think the effort is at a hundred percent, which is where it needs to be.
Absolutely. We'll kind of see that and talk about it more when we once we get to practice
highlights and clips to coach, of course, did talk about Don Ponder, right? They had a I think
they're having a visual tomorrow, for anyone to go to. They obviously honored him on the field
in Folsom yesterday. Coach Prime spoken about first off, he mentioned him in his opening address
and he was like, he's straight up said, I can't say his name right now. And it was clear,
it was hard for him to kind of get through that entire like opening part about Don on Don,
though, he said, we're going to have a patch on the jerseys for sure. He was going to wear seven
as well. He will be appreciated and you will understand his presence this season. He also
brought up the fact that he was the oldest player in the room, something we've talked about here.
And he was the one kind of running the room from player perspective, right? Like this is a massive
loss. And we'll get to talking about Julian as well. And how he's looked and kind of developed,
I guess, since we last talked to coach. But yeah, just, you know, shout out Don Ponder, man.
I love the point he made recipes, Don Ponder, man. I love the point that Coach Prime made today,
about like, this is for all walk-ons out there. Just because you're a walk-on doesn't mean that
you can't impact the football team. Yes. Because that's exactly what Don has been doing. Yes.
Like he said, Coach Prime said to that, he was running that quarterback room. And just because,
you know, you're a walk-on doesn't mean that you can't impact a team in a real, real way,
which is obviously what Don did, man. So let's take our first break. And then we'll talk Julian
and a bunch more on the other side. Shout out to our friends over at
Breckenridge Brewery, the absolute homies, man. They've been rocking with us since the very
beginning. And we rock with them as well. Come hang out with the DMVR bar. We got beers on tap
beers and cans. As you know, they got so many different kinds of beers. We keep it rotating
here at the DMVR bar. Also shout out to the farmhouse over in Little Timman. Again, if you have not
been to the Breck farmhouse out there, you gotta make a stop when you come through and check out
Colorado. First off, the food is fire. You can try a ton of different brews that aren't in
regular retailers, bars, all types of stuff like that. And it's just sick. Take a tour, see how
the beers are made as well. But Breckenridge Brewery men, again, they've been doing it since the very
beginning out here. They actually have a beer so good they named a hockey team after. Right, Scotty?
Had to. But yeah, it's the DMVR bar season. So come hang out across some breck brews with us.
And you can find a breck brew near you when you use their beer locator at www.breckbrew.com.
Shout out to our OG friends over at Breckenridge Brewery.
And shout out to our friends over at the Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers. All of us have been
impacted by cancer in one way or another, whether that is family, friends, loved ones,
whatever it may be, it hits us all at some point. And that's why you want to be with the
Rocky Mountain Cancer Center. And you want to refer people to the Rocky Mountain Cancer Center.
Because when people work together, that is called a team. And with the right team, with the right
people, big things can happen, like becoming the big 12 contender that nobody saw coming in at.
The Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers, they know a thing or two about big comebacks. They've been
leaders in the fight against cancer for over 30 years. And they are the team that call
at us trust most when it comes to treating adult cancer. And they do it more than anyone else
in the state. So when the hits come there with you, the entire way with one goal in mind,
taking your treatment head on. So check out our friends over at the Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers,
your courage, their expertise.
All right, let's talk about Julian. You know, I asked Coach Prime about Julian, how he thinks he's
progressed. He gave the all coming around the mountain thing, right? Again, I think this is the
third or fourth time we heard the coming around the mountain song. But he said, we talked about it
in our takeaways video. It sounds like their mom used to sing that to me. Really? Yeah.
That's a favor to yours. I mean, it's a banger. I don't know why that's what you did. Did you ever make
your way around the mountain? You know, that's kind of in the eye of the beholder. The other
scene Eddie Murphy. He was like in a kid's scary movie. The haunted mansion one. Yeah. You
seen that right? Of course. Oh, yeah. That was like a, I don't know. I don't know. What did I have to do?
There was a scene. There was a scene where they sing that song in the movie too. Yeah, thanks. Thank you.
But anyways, you know, Julian is very much in the middle of his development still, right?
And we can't discount how he's been affected by the loss of Dom Ponder as well. Someone that he
called his locker buddy and his best friend just two days ago, right? Yeah. So he did say, you
know, once we get to that first game, Georgia Tech first snap, you think he'll be ready to go, but
very clearly a young player still developing. Well, did Coach Prime just break that jujus
starter week one then kind of with that statement? That's kind of what it sound like to me. I thought it
was a controversy. You read, you read the TV's on Twitter. That's what people are saying.
But nah, I mean, yes, I think us three and we're sensitive to the fact that Julian lost
the brother. Somebody who he literally saw right next to him, right next to his locker every
single day, who we saw in his position meetings every single day. And that I don't think can be
discounted at all. But kind of what I said, you mentioned a takeaway video and we talk about that.
Might take away from, I guess that answer and kind of how I've seen coaches talk about
jujus and even some teammates kind of dating back to the draft, right? Where he wasn't the first
overall pick. Yeah. I think as a team and as a coaching staff, they're just trying not to baby him.
And I think when you are a young guy, like I said, last year, right? He came to Colorado as a
true freshman, somebody who's just still being high school with a four, fifth year college football
quarterback with a lot of experience ahead of him already in that room. There isn't nobody
like that no more. He's the guy in that room. And he has to be the leader of this team, not only
in that room, not only on that offense, but for this team, just taking the football stuff aside,
I think they are just trying to make sure that he matures the right way. And that includes
not babying somebody, even if they are maybe going through a tough time because development and
growth and all that. As I say, time and time again, it's not linear. Sometimes it goes up,
sometimes it goes down and eventually hopefully you find consistency. But I think they want to make
sure that Julian develops as a leader, as a man, just as much as they want to make sure he continues
to develop as a quarterback. But you can already see in the well off videos that he is taking
upon himself to bring more energy. After Coach Prime stopped the practice for the fight today,
then he said, all right, we're doing the same thing over again. First person you see running
across the camera is Julian, hyping up his guy. So I love to see that. And yeah, I mean,
I think there will come a time where Coach Prime will be ready to put a crown on Julian.
Me too. And I think he wants to. Oh, he wants to make sure. But he's, yeah, he's going to make him
earn that exactly right. And I think all of us have a lot of confidence that he will definitely.
But yeah, I think that they're trying to push him and push him and push him in like, it's so
funny that we were talking the other day about Coach Marion's coaching style and how he kind of
likes to prod it. Yeah, his corner. He's like, he's like, he's like riding a juju face and like,
juju like, he's like, is it in your face? You have it in your veins. It's all about right here.
Come on. He's a third down red zone. Just what quarterbacks about right here. That was great.
Yeah. And by the way, Julian did lead the team down for a game-winning field goal.
Not surprised. I did. And what I said in the takeaway, I think he just really cares about
joint development too, right? Like this is the most important part of this program. I think
obviously you're moving forward the next few years. And I think he just really cares about
getting it right. And as you said, I think they are trying to kind of balance that push in him,
but also like showing some tender and love, especially with the current situation with Dom right
now too, right? Like, Julian's been very affected by this very clearly, right? There's only four
guys in that room. So, um, but just hearing Cam talk about him, I mean, he's obviously said he
was very talented. He said just a matter of reps. Danny was talking about him and how he was the
first player to reach out to Danny when, uh, see who contacted him when he went on his visit for
that dinner. Julian was there. He was the first person he met when he came here. Like,
Julian is, he's doing a lot of the quarterback thing stuff really well right now, right?
But it's just a matter of, when you're in that position, you kind of have to do it all. Like,
you can't slip up, right? For sure. So yeah, for sure. Um, how about Cam talking about
the fact that he's going to know it in practice because the defense
and playing no man coverage. I think that is a very interesting window into these defense at
Chris Marve is scheming up and running. It's going to be a lot more zone coverage and man coverage
and what we've seen, I think the last couple of years and I think that fits this skill sets of
this secondary, these cornerbacks in particular. Um, so I like that. And it's going to give
camp area the rest of the receivers a lot of good work at finding open spots and zone coverage
and where to sit down and kind of how to maybe slow yourself down and make sure you stay open
in the zone and that type of stuff. So that was interesting though. Yeah. And, and at this point
of practice, especially you're not like scheming against your own team. You're just working on what
you want to work on, but I will say you shouldn't want to play man coverage against this team.
Like that's a bad idea. Yeah. So it works out well for them that like this offense is so speed-based.
Yeah. That you can't really play man coverage. Definitely. Absolutely. Um, I mean, it's something we
talked about a few weeks ago when the move happened. Um, but yeah, I mean, that's where a lot of
the big plays come from too, right? And when you're playing against zone, like those extended plays
against it, guys breaking across field and all that. So you get to kind of practice some of those
things against this defense too. So it's iron sharpening iron. Anything else, necessarily from press
conferences that we didn't get to. I thought it was interesting that Danny mentioned the fact that
Brennan Mary and his head success with the receivers of his stature of Danny's kind of, you know,
five foot nine five foot eight hundred and seventy five hundred and eighty type pound frame, um,
because I was, I was Brennan Mary, you know, back in the day when he during his playing days is a
record setting receiver at Tulsa. Um, and clearly, you know, guys like Cam Ernest certainly have
that kind of similar build as well. So that just gives me confidence and less pause when it comes to
people talking about their, their specs, their height weight and it could potentially be a problem
at the power for level. Um, maybe with another coach, but I think Brennan Mary, and like I said,
is very uniquely situated to make sure that those guys have success. Um, and I ask Danny specifically
about that. Like what? What is it about this go-go offense as you think kind of accentuates your
skill set and whatnot? And he goes, well, he likes to get guys into space. And if you can get some
of you like Danny's cadero, Cam Perry, Ernest Campbell in the space where it's them in one other
defender, um, or maybe nobody is just open grass. Yeah. That's an advantageous situation.
It's just it's very intentional. What Brennan Mary and this recruiting staff did with the
additions on the offensive side of the ball, right? Like they have roles that they wanted to fill.
They weren't just bringing talent in and just like, all right, this is just how we're going to
upgrade the room. Like every guy, like his coach primus said multiple times now, they sat there,
watched the film on the computer on the TV, but they were very intentional this offseason. And that's
how you form an identity, uh, identity and how you form, um, just these roles that are just known
by guys that they're stepping in and not, you know, kind of, uh, wide eyed when you enter into a game
and you're maybe asked to do something else. Like there's defined rules on this team.
Did Cam Perry say he promises no drops this season? He did. He did. Yeah.
That's a quote. Yeah. That's what he said too. He said quote me. We just did. Uh, that,
I love that so much. Yeah. Um, you didn't have one last year, I believe. Uh, I think there's
conflicting reports. He had a couple corner profile focus. He had a few. Okay. Those are
according to a different source. He had zero. Yeah. Um, yeah. According to him. But regardless,
very low. Um, I will remember that. So I hope that I think a lot of people will,
we all want him to be right. Yes. Yes. I think it takes, that takes a prime confidence.
I think to say that too. Oh, that's what I, yeah. 100%. I loved it. Your first time on the podium.
And you know this fan base, the particular going, going to write that down and try to come back to
that, whether it's, comes true or not. So I have no choice, but to remember.
Thanks. Thanks. Because the first thing I'd say anytime someone drops a ball, who was
the wrong guy? Who was that?
No, no, no.
To it and just like you got you can't drop it now. It's the same fan base that coach
prime said is very opinionated also. No, it was funny. Him saying it was enough.
And I respect the hell out of the fact that he said, uh, Cam Perry also talking about the
conditioning, right? It's something that we've mentioned with this go-go offense in Brennan
Marion, like one of the core philosophies is creating a fifth quarter, right? Playing with that
pace. So you can get to 80 plus plays in a game. Um, Cam Perry said as impressions of the
go-go offense, like you got to be conditioned for this thing. And um, this is when it starts really.
It's, it's already started actually. And I think that's a benefit of having a, a legitimate
six deep crew at receiver. Yeah. Because you can, you're telling them guys, don't,
don't pack it in. Like don't try to conserve your energy when you're out there. Like run full
speed. Because if you get a lot tired, we, we got another dog behind you ready to come in. So you
can get your breather or whatnot. So I think playing with tempo and playing with pace, um, fits
these, the skill position groups of this team really well. You know, I think it's crazy is,
it's a lot easier to rotate wide receivers than it is to rotate corners. Yeah.
Imagine you take Cam Perry 60 yards down the field and the corner's got to run through. He,
oh, yes. And then right then he looks back in a fresh legs. Ernest Campbell runs out onto
the field. Yeah. And now you got to do it again. For sure. That's torture. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And
take, and take, take that, take your, take your top corner off the field if you want to. Yeah,
put on your second right there. Like, yeah. If you do, damn, if you don't. And that theory has more
legs now in this go-go where it's not constantly for wide, right? Because we were saying that before,
but when you're constantly throwing out four and five wide receivers, you're just don't have
enough body. Exactly. Platoon, like you were saying. Yes. With two, three at a time. Yeah.
You got them those numbers. By the end of the year, it's going to be called war crime.
Oh, how like those things that you're doing to them. That's helpful. And then even Danny too, like,
this is somebody who was targeted a ton last year over 120 times. We were looking for the show.
He was targeted 23 times in one game. Okay. 23 times in one game.
Four touchdowns in that game. And 180 yards. What a dog. I heard he came around.
But he was asked today, Danny was like, for somebody who was a target god, you know, a target,
Maven, particularly last year, San Jose State, you know, how do you, what, if anything,
changes about your mentality when you're coming to a really stacked town to the receiver room,
with a few other guys who were expecting a lot of targets. Yeah. And he basically talked about,
it's an unselfish room. And the fact that he wants to see all those guys eat as well,
like when Cam said, yeah, Cam finished up his pressur today. Danny was right after him.
And Cam wanted to make sure that he escorted Danny into the room, like, hey, it is Danny.
He's going to do everybody like they are, they're locked in, you know, I'm saying. And for sure,
that's real friendship and real love that they have for each other. And I receive a room.
And Coach Prime said it as well. Those guys aren't unselfish. So I think that is going to be a group
that kind of feeds off each other and kind of brings you juice for each other every day. I will say,
unselfishness is easy in the off season. Oh, yeah. And it's also easy when you're winning.
And so I hope that they win because everyone can be unselfish. That's
when the lost column has a low number in it. But as soon as it starts piling up, then everyone says,
why don't we do it? I feel like it would be good things happen tonight. Thanks.
All right. Um, let's take our next break and shout out our friends over at
Benny Hanum. And what's better than dinner and a show?

All right, back on the show. Let's get to some of the highlights from today.
That's a little ball.
First up. Boo Carter.
Getting scary.
Think of who.
Camp area at wide receiver.
Go route. That balls on time. That's a catch.
Now just watch him.
That energy right there. That boy turned.
But they're not watching.
Yep.
Do this.
Yeah, really.
And this is the good on good we want to see.
All spring in a lead row runner in a lead coverage guy.
That's sticky coverage.
And for the veteran grab.
Is that hope? Is that holding?
Is that P.I.
I could be.
Depends on who's calling.
I think that's good sticky coverage.
I agree.
I don't think there's overly grabbing.
There's certainly contact.
He's on his on his body the whole time.
It's not a tug.
Exactly.
A tug of the Jersey for sure.
There's no like extension of the arm where he's out extended.
It's sticky coverage right there.
And it's a really good route runner.
Again, I think if there's a better throw,
Cam gets a completion there.
But
Hell yeah, you love to see that.
Just keep noticing that every time Buu makes a big play,
he kind of just struts.
He doesn't like go like crazy start jumping up and down.
Look for his teammates.
He's trying to struts.
It's expected.
Yeah, he used to this.
He used to this.
I love both for what it's worth.
But oh yeah, I just feel like he's just like.
I love that.
And again,
Buu is six one two hundred plus.
Keeping up with yeah.
Keeping up with five seven hundred and seventy five pounds
speedy Gonzalez Cam Perry.
Like that's that is not normal.
And that is why I believe
everything goes the way it should be.
He's going to hear his name called in the 2027 draft.
Talk about Boo Carter.
For sure.
Next clip.
I'd like two years.
That'd be sick.
The way he's talking.
He said this is my third year.
I gotta give me.
Let's do our Xfinity X Factor.
Let's do it again.
Presented by Xfinity.
Imagine that.
How about this clip today?
From new.
Colorado running back.
Richard.
And the screen.
All the way.
Probably would have been a collision in the secondary.
I mean the whole team.
Yeah.
Johnny Mac runny bags coach.
J. Phil.
Box.
Track Hawk.
Mary came in at the end.
One more time.
One more time.
That was a violent.
Yeah, I rendered that.
He was like, yeah, y'all.
You got it, bro.
A shout out to Richard young man.
I mean, this is a guy who I think only has.
150 carries on college.
I think that's the way too high.
100 or so.
He's got 59 career carries.
Yeah, so this is a guy who is still kind of green,
but he got that first start last year against Florida State.
He's had some impact plays already three days through spring football.
The visor and the build given me a nickname.
Uh-oh.
Richard young.
Master Chief.
Man, after my own heart, bro, jeez.
I'm gonna have to change my project at starters now.
Yeah, I actually thought about that when he was making that run.
Let's go.
That's a big individual right there, man.
212 plus pounds, almost six foot.
Yeah, man, you get more out of that.
He's going to be touching the football out this ball.
Absolutely.
That's a halo reference for those of you who don't know.
Yeah, shout out to Master Chief.
Do you ever play Halo?
You're Scott.
He didn't line up.
Scottie.
Yeah, that was just never a thing in my circle.
I only ever played sports video games at my own house.
That was me.
But when I went to my friend's house, we would play Halo and I would get marked.
Halo 3 is one of the greatest video games of all time.
They were all fun.
Like, especially back, we could play like four player with your friends.
It's like before on my play exists.
I'll keep that for me.
That's what we used to do all the time.
Anyways, I was talking about Halo all day.
But if I wasn't playing sports games as a kid, it would be like,
like fighting games like Mortal Kombat and like Tekken's, no.
Okay.
Put your fire.
Okay.
Yeah, come on, Scottie.
Not bad.
That was the Xfinity X-Factor presented by friends over at Xfinity.
Imagine that shout out to Richard Young for being the X-Factor this week.
All right, anything else from practice that you wanted to touch on?
I mean, again, the guys are flying around.
As you mentioned, the sound of practice is different.
Yeah, that's the number one thing for me so far.
It's that sound is about engagement.
The sound is going from the side of the house.
Yeah, do you get just close your eyes?
I think it's a buggy.
It's a buggy.
Bucky's a really giddy.
Love it. Nate Mitchell did have a force fumble today as well.
He did.
And a pig.
And a pig.
Yeah, man, guys are flying around.
It is more encouraging, I think, than it was this point.
Week one of Spring Ball last year.
Yep.
And I think just based off what we can see, which is very limited, of course.
Defense looks a little ahead of the offense.
That's pretty natural for this time of year.
How about Elliot Arnold?
Yeah.
Walk off field goal.
Let's go.
Figure out what they're calling them at the end.
Ellie something.
Ellie Dante, that's what you call him.
James Jouler.
Yeah, he hit the game-winning quote-unquote field goal at the end of practice.
I love that situational stuff, right?
Because you said it was a drive led by Juju to kind of set up that
game-winning field goal, so to speak.
Right.
I love the situational football.
I know it's big for both of these coordinators.
Chris Marv talked about it this week.
And I know it's a big part of what Brenna Mirin wants to get done offensively.
You've got to be good in situational football.
Third down red zone, that type of stuff.
Coach Prime talks about down distance all the time for a reason, right?
Yep.
So yeah.
And honestly, look, that's a part of the reason why the team wasn't as good last year.
They just, a lot of players weren't,
weren't thinking as clearly as they needed to.
Right?
And the important moments.
In the important moments.
And just simple things, too.
Yeah.
Okay.
You had a player you wanted to mention that we didn't mention yesterday for projected starters.
Correct.
Somebody who I wouldn't pencil in as a starter, obviously, right away,
but I feel like this is somebody who we maybe should have mentioned
as we were talking about some depth pieces,
talking about the offensive line.
Um, Javon McFadden,
though, Ohio State transfer who can play guard, who can play tackle,
former number one offensive lineman,
St. Amariell and obviously, Jordan Seaton's cousin.
This is a very talented football player.
And he came the Colorado for a reason.
We don't know what that reason was, you know, with his cousin,
leaving and him coming here.
He came here for a reason.
And I assume it would be kind of so much of some of these other guys, right?
That we talked about with like, maybe, you know,
leaf hour guys coming from the SEC.
Like, they want to prove that they can be the guy.
And I think that's a part of Javon McFadden's tiny DNA.
6'3", 295 pounds, walking around the wayroom, talking to his stuff.
I think as he gets more comfortable,
he is going to be a guy who could potentially really play into this rotation on the offensive line.
Absolutely, man.
He was a blue chipper.
Blue chipper.
I think we read on the show back then when he committed.
One of the reasons why he was looking or why he entered the portal and why he picked Colorado.
He wasn't going to play at Ohio State any time soon.
And he wants to play.
And so, yeah, they're his name into the conversation at the interior.
He was going crazy in the weight room, too, wasn't he?
Yeah, he was.
It was a big way.
Larry Johnson as well.
Also, we'll get some work on the guard's parts.
We talked a lot about that, but it seems pretty official at this point, too.
Anything else from practice before we move on?
I'm good.
Great week, honestly.
Really exciting.
For sure.
Okay, so we did have a commitment earlier this week that we didn't really get to talk about.
Jared Merck, former bowling green rider,
seever, has joined the team or has committed at least.
I don't know if he's actually joined the team yet, but
this is kind of an older player, a more experienced player.
He appeared on Bowling Green's roster in 2023 as a true freshmen,
only played in one game, redshirted, and then played in all 13 games as a redshirt
freshman, primarily on special teams in 2024, played in all 12 games again last year,
primarily special teams.
But 6 to 190, someone else to just kind of round out that receiving corner,
another player who's probably going to end up joining practices sooner rather than later.
So yeah, I mean, depending on enrollment and all that, obviously.
Another body for that receiver room, which is important.
And also another addition to the list of teammates, right?
Former teammates with Gideon, ESPN Lampron at Bowling Green.
What are his specs?
Because he seemed like kind of a taller.
He was 6 to
6 to 195, I believe.
It's not bad.
It's not bad.
So 190.
Cool.
All right.
Next,
do you have the ESPN list of quarterbacks pulled up, Scotty?
I stopped reading this article because he's told me every web page.
I got whatever you need.
Any crashes.
People out there who might be giving anxiety
by how many tabs or folders or anything.
People have up and up.
Never look at Scotty's computer.
This is pretty light too, honestly.
This is a light day.
Drop in the comments.
Are you a tab collector?
Or are you a tab dropper?
I don't know.
Like this is.
I'll just, and is there more?
No, this is everything.
Yeah.
So I said this is light.
There's at least 40.
I was going to say 35.
Yeah.
Nah.
Like on this screen right here.
Yes.
This is like 20 something.
There's no way.
Let's count them.
All count them.
Oh, you talk about it.
Yeah.
I've never seen a person with more tabs open in my entire life.
So ESPN's built kindly yesterday morning
posted this titled pre-spring quarterback rankings
for all 68 power for college football teams.
Yeah.
So I'm pretty excited to write.
He ranked all 64 starting quarterbacks
or who, at least, think is going to start at quarterback.
The first name being CJ Carr in Notre Dame
was kind of jarring to me.
Did that surprise you, too?
Or not?
In terms of the best overall, yes.
But he did some stuff last year that I liked.
You have a count?
I'm going to say I'm going to guess final guess 29.
50.
What?
Yes.
Yeah, there's these up here, bro, or 50, bro.
All of this?
Yeah.
There's 50, though.
You don't need 50 tabs, bro.
I don't know.
That's maybe you read things and things.
I can go live.
50's kind of crazy.
There's like 11 ESPN.
How many unread emails do you have on your phone?
It's also a light day.
Imagine on a heavy day.
I think I was assuming it maxed out at 50.
He closed some yesterday.
I actually crashed.
50's kind of crazy.
That's kind of your reasoning isn't things.
How many had read many emails?
Unread emails.
I have 36,037.
Unread emails.
391.
Don't email Scotty if you ever need any.
Don't email me.
Well, we're not emailing me either actually.
Don't email me.
But apparently yet, uh, ESPNs will kind of lead.
I'm not so very surprised.
Slightly surprised, I'd say.
That was interesting.
Um, he kind of balled last year, bro.
Sure.
Look, people were dogging on Notre Dame and stuff
and they didn't play a great schedule,
but they blew the hell out of two.
Uh, blue, some teams out of the crazy pool.
Pause.
They got Julian Sayon at number two.
Turned out at three.
Arch had four.
Number two is worse than number one.
I'm sorry.

like he was really good.
I didn't watch them too closely,
so I don't know.
Okay, but sorry, I was counting your tabs.
What is this list?
Bill kindly ring the 68
powerful college football quarterbacks.
We ranked them one through 68 based on a lot.
Based on he said based on stats, trends,
and recent performances.
Okay.
And Bill kindly should be noted,
he's the S&P plus guy,
so he's going to throw some analytics and stuff like that too.
Do we have a guess
of where Colorado's QB1
Julian Lewis is on this list of 68
quarterbacks?
And for what it's worth,
former Brennan Mirings,
former quarterback Jada Mayava is number five on this list.
Wow, where do we guess Juju is?
One through 68.
I'm going to guess he's in the late 40s.
I was going to say 49.
Yeah, they are overly sleeping on our
body.
Overly sleeping on our got 68.
There's yeah, that's how many there are on this list.
No, is he 68?
He is close to 68.
66.
Ridiculously close to 68.
They have him 62.
So who are they saying he's better?
The only quarterbacks they're saying he is better than
is Mason McKenzie at Boston College.
He was at Saginaw Valley State last year.
Okay.
Alessio Milo Vichich.
Who's the quarterback at Michigan State?
Who?
Jeremy Heckley.
What's how you say that?
Jeremie Hecklinski or Hank Brown.
Oh, we got an or.
Either of the Iowa quarterbacks.
Cole Ballard at Kansas.
Ryan Brown at Purdue in Davis Warren at Stanford,
who they got as the worst quarterback in college.
Wait, my guy.
Shut out, Davis Warren.
Your guy is Davis Warren.
He played at Michigan 62 is absolutely insane.
Yeah, yeah, that is absolutely crazy.
Can we start going up?
Sure.
Right ahead of them, they have Geolo Pez,
who is at North Carolina last year.
He's now at Wake Forest.
Oh, they have a true freshman over him?
A dude who has never played before.
Jared Curtis, Vanderbilt's quarterback.
Ahead of them at 59.
They don't even know if he's going to start.
They got eight in child's Northwestern's quarterback at 57.
They got, I mean, they got all the big talk.
Jaden Craig, who's coming over from Harvard at TCU now at 55.
JC French was coming over from Georgia,
Southern, at Cincinnati at 54.
Who had the ranking the other day that had
Isaac Wilson ahead of two.
Yeah, that was on three.
But what I'm saying is they had to call out as backup as a better transfer
in two guys that are ahead of our starter on this list.
That's crazy.
I guess here's the blur.
I can read that for you, Juju.
Coz, the unsanitary's an offensive coordinator,
Pat Schumer around their quarterback room,
and scatter shot fashion in 2025,
starting three different guys at one point or another.
But the uncertainty is gone in 2026.
Two or those three are gone.
And Lewis, the blue chip redshirt freshman
is the guy for new coordinator, Brennan Marion.
Lewis was good in one late season start,
a win over West Virginia and lost in another,
a blowout defeat to Arizona State.
But he has tools.
Okay, okay.
Thanks, Bill.
I just can't imagine 60 quarterbacks.
Better than you.
I may be more proven at the college level.
Sure.
All know our reef.
But I mean, some of these dudes ahead of them are just as unproven.
Like Christopher Bezina at Clemson
has 400 career passing yards.
Julian, two for 300 in his debut.
Wow.
Good point.
Clemson might be in trouble this year, by the way.
Oh, yeah.
Hot seat, dabba.
We'll see.
The talent is dwindling.
They've had a lot of guys drafted the last 10,
12 years and...
Particularly on defense.
Yeah.
The talent is dwindling.
They got our Burtle Mendoza,
Georgia Tech's quarterback,
who Colorado will likely see a week one at 41
with his 286 career passing.
Oh, Lord.
Bookmark it.
Very easy.
Bookmark that.
Remember, screenshot it.
What do you got to do?
I've got this list.
New college football staff hires
poised to make a major impact in 2026
from Chris Lowe over at on three.
This is no rankings.
But these are 15 coaching hires.
Again, that is our projected to make a major impact
in 2026.
Brennan-Marie makes the list.
The blurb.
Marion left his job with the one season at Sac State
to join Deon Sanders at Colorado.
It was brought in for a very specific purpose
to add some punch and consistency to a Buffalo's offense
that dipped considerably a year ago.
Ranked 116th nationally and scoring.
And we're even worse on the ground
averaging three and a half yards per rush.
That's where Marion comes in.
Sac State improved from 39 to 75
in his only season there.
And was the best rushing team in the FCS ranks.
Marion wants to make quarterback
joins Julian Lewis' life easier
in his go-go offense
with a legitimate running game.
And that is the plan.
Hell yeah.
Yeah, there's some interesting names
on this list.
TCU's quarterback's coach Brad Robbins makes the list.
I think that's really it from a big 12 standpoint.
But that just doesn't line up.
You have one of the most impactful
coordinator hires.
And you're telling me the quarterbacks
going to be 62 coming there.
They'll wake up.
Especially when that coordinator's
former quarterback is number five on this.
Uh-huh.
Looked at his one of the top quarterbacks
in coach football.
Co-people in the chat are asking about Jojo.
His mom actually kind of provided a little update
in a reply to one of my tweets yesterday.
Jojo's mom goes.
His injury is minor.
And he'll be back for a fall ball
stronger than last year.
She goes.
Some remember.
Some will be reminded.
Scobuffs.
Codabar.
Codabar.
Yeah, she does.
Yeah, she does.
Shadow Miss Williams.
Deandre Moore is going to be fine too.
Mm-hmm.
So one thing I will say is that
in nothing against Jojo's mom.
Okay.
I did get an injury update from a player's mom last year
that turned out to be incredibly incorrect.
That is a valid context.
Yes.
Valid context.
Just put it out there, just saying.
They were like, he's going to be back next week.
I don't know exactly what you're talking about.
Never came back.
Trinidad Chamblis.
Who?
Do you see this?
No.
The NCAA is appealing the preliminary
injunction that a state court in Mississippi
granted to Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chamblis
that paved his way to be eligible
for a six season in 2026.
The filing in the Mississippi Supreme Court on Thursday,
the NCAA is appealing the injunction,
claiming that the organization, quote,
has final decision making authority
in the interpretation and application
of its eligibility rules.
They filed a 658 page filing on Thursday,
arguing that it should receive an interlocutory.
Inter...
What is that word?
I don't know what that is.
Interlocutory?
Appeal?
I think you said that right.
An appeal of a non-final order
because the injunction subjects the NCAA
to quote substantial and irreparable injury.
Because they're saying,
if you can do this, you can do anything.
Exactly.
The NCAA argues that the Chamblis ruling
cuts to the heart of fair play.
Quote, the NCAA is charged with supporting
its member institutions and enforcing
the rules that they adopt.
It's even handed enforcement of the eligibility rules
is necessary to ensure a level playing field
among all competitors
and provide opportunities for incoming student athletes.
That's where a lot of that is stemming from.
That's the NCAA's whole argument
when to all of these eligibility cases is that,
look man, call sports are meant for young people
for them to get an opportunity to,
yes, obviously try and go pro.
It's not meant to have the 23, 24, 25 year old stick around
just so that they can get one last pass
and play 12 more games.
A big old paycheck.
Exactly.
And that too now.
Look at the NCAA showing some backbone.
Just a little bit.
So they said, we have fun.
We'll say over what it is.
This kind of reminds me of one time
there was this guy who was
calling the games for the student radio
at CU like four years after he was a student.
And I was like,
isn't that supposed to be for students?
You're right.
Yes.
So, cheer up, Chamblis.
That's supposed to be for students.
You're hilarious bro.
You are hilarious dog.
Bro, could you imagine that they actually do this though?
And like bro is just left in the middle zone
where he's not, he's not in college anymore
and he missed a shot.
I don't feel bad anymore.
I really don't.
I don't, I would, I would kind of feel bad
for him if that happened to him.
I ain't going to lie.
Bro.
The supplementary supplement draft.
Probably yes.
So yeah, so
yeah, so he'd probably just go into the NFL supplementary draft
if he was denied eligibility,
which happens sometime in the summer.
They still do that.
They're all prior drafts.
Yeah, they do.
Like every year, they still do that.
They do that every year.
Wow.
Mm-hmm.
Who's the left?
Who's the last supplementary draft picked
in the tag play?
There's a corner from Virginia one year,
Bryce something.
Oh, hall maybe?
Maybe, yeah.
Actually was Jalen Thompson.
Arizona, the Arizona Cardinals in the
in the fifth round of the 2019 supplemental draft
took Jalen Thompson, who I believe was a former Alabama safety.
Or no, actually Washington State, it looks like.
The supplementary draft was canceled last year.
Oh, that's right.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
I take creatine number one in the supplementary draft.
So in the last.
Chris Carter will solve the part of that.
For sure, there's a really?
Yes.
1985, 1987, Josh Gordon.
How does...
That doesn't make sense, bro.
How does Chris Carter was like a record-setting receiver at Ohio State.
There's no way he would think about something like that.
There might have been...
He, there might have been.
Is there some trouble?
Oh, okay.
There was Ohio State trouble, like...
Okay.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,
nine, ten players drafted in the supplementary draft
from 1985 to 2011.
Interesting.
Does that say Josh Gordon was one of them?
Hell yeah, bro.
And then in 2019, the Jalen Thompson.
But anyways, the point is,
I don't feel bad, bro.
He bowed out in the CFP.
He had, he played 15 games last year.
It was his first year at the Power 4, though.
Who cares?
He has a whole resume.
Like, guys have gone and declared for the draft with less.
And now he missed out on all these pre-draft opportunities.
You did this to yourself, brother,
because you wanted to stay and collect a fat check at Ole Miss.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
He thought he good.
And he's still my baby, too.
Well, he thought he could with a lawsuit
because he thought that they could just break through the NCAA's rules
and just...
Oh, they're not gonna do that.
Even here's what's gonna happen, though.
Even if this incidentally wins this case,
then they'll just have a comment.
But then other case.
And they'll be able to delay this long enough to go through the season.
Probably.
Which is what I was thinking about Ezra.
Right.
It's like no matter what happens, just keep making noise
and just like kicking the can down the road
and then just let him play.
The thing is, like, I'm pretty sure you can just do whatever you want.
Everyone's just been operating under a set of rules
that doesn't actually exist.
Yep.
Pretty much.
But again, it's like...
What are they gonna do?
Drag someone off the field?
But there's just been so many court cases the last...
15 almost years against the NCAA that they've just been stripped of so much.
I say we, it's obviously not we, but we've created this monster
that is the powerless NCAA.
And now we're going, where are the rules?
Where are the rules?
Well, we stripped all the power of the rule givers
to enforce their rules.
So this is why we're in this situation.
I don't know.
There's literally a, what, in the White House,
a presidential, like, round table
around the cosmos right now,
and there's some craziness going on there,
Nick Sabin's there, and like...
I don't know, man.
It's insane.
But we're cooked.
Say it.
Take the line.
We're cooked.
Thank you, guys.
All right, Scotty just told me to say one word when I bring this up.
So, uh, Pimp.
Y'all heard about the Pimp?
Yes.
So here's his ESPN Tweet for mentioning.
Police say a coach on the Cal State Bakers Field Men's basketball program
was moonlighting as a Pimp across four states.
This is crazy, bro.
So this story is wild, bro.
Do they not have, like, a more scientific term for that?
Noth's pimpin, pimpin.
So this is the beginning of the time.
The beginning of the time to the end of the time.
Pimpin go, you pimpin.
So, so this coach at California State Bakers Field is basketball coach.
Faces a hefty rap sheet.
He's being held without bail currently, by the way.
A rap sheet of 11 criminal and misdemeanor charges
and could have felony such as pimpin.
He also is charged with possession of automatic firearms and high capacity mags
and possession of meth and marijuana with intent to sell.
So, like, he was pimpin, pimpin.
And he was protecting himself in who he had to protect, you know what I'm saying?
And this is, this is just crazy.
He pleaded not guilty on all charges is, uh, his lawyer is declining comment.
But for this to, to come up,
imagine this is in your program and you'll find out one of your assistant coaches is
that pimpin.
Imagine you're the person who hired him.
Yeah.
How long before, uh, Jay, um, Kevin Hart is playing,
they're just doing a movie on that flame.
You've been having lots of random all-outs.
It says the school conducted a criminal background check before,
Macy's appointment, but found no problems.
Well,
they had to be caught.
You did, they addressed your system, brother.
This is crazy, man.
Apparently a random tipster was the one who, uh,
wow, this is crazy.
Wow.
This is Macy's told the tipster.
He was a professional gambler
and that he allegedly threatened to take away the tipster's child
if the person exposed his activities.
Bro, bro is, bro is indeed in very deep.
What are we doing?
Coaching basketball was his side job.
His root job.
Well, that's what I was gonna say.
It sounds like they needed to pay it more.
And they said, too, he was making $3,000 a month with his coaching job.
Yeah.
Apparently that wasn't enough.
But what a time college sports is going through.
It's unbelievable.
Crazy.
But practice is back and it's pretty fun at least, so.
And we might get the watch.
Sounds like we're going to watch a practice.
Oh, yes.
Best news of the day.
Yes.
Best news of the day.
Coach Prime says we will, at some point,
get the watch a practice.
Yeah.
This spring and I can't wait.
It's the spring game.
It's a practice.
No, come on.
No, no, no, no.

And we appreciate you deeply, my guy.
Oh, yeah.
Real spill.
Have his demon says, is it just me or did you do get taller?
What did you think two days ago?
I see it.
Yeah.
I mean, he's just 18-year-old here.
I always say he's like 6-1 now.
I think he admitted during the pressure this week.
He was like, yeah, you know, if you're 6 foot quarterback,
you've got to always be working on what you call it.
But I think he's like 6-1 now.
I can see I saw a little height.
All right.
I mean, he doesn't look small.
No, he's not saying that.
Nope, but never has.
All right, shout out, chat, man.
What a fun week.
It's so nice to have football back.
Damn, is Andy Eagle really the home of Pimpin?
Is that where Pimpin started?
Damn straight.
Like he knows.
No, dude, I actually, it is.
I don't know.
You're talking about my SDSU.
