Del Forge played in 14 games and a freshman played over him at RG.  No way CU has a worse OL than KU did last year and they averaged 35 a game.  Having a crap ton of offensive weapons can overcome mediocre line play.  They will use their playmakers in space and utilize Sanders running ability to help out the OL.

KU's OL is better than you're giving it credit for, tbh.

Good scheme paired with good skill position players who know the system

I get this is a minority opinion, but I think if Sanders sticks around, he will improve Colorado within a few years.   I'd be excited if I were a Colorado fan; I mean they have very little to lose. . . Colorado football has had exactly one winning season in the last 16 years* and are coming off a 1-11 record last year.   They'll probably have some depth issues and whole lot of losses this year, but it will likely be an improvement

*did not count 6 game covid season

This is the sticking point for me. I don't think he'll ever have major success there, because if he shows serious improvement in even 2 years, I think a Florida school or SEC team throws absurd money at him knowing he could completely flip a roster and change a culture quickly. He's bitched non stop about the weather in Boulder since getting there.

Also, they completely removed the 25 man scholarship per year rule due to Covid. And I know it'll never be back to that number with the immediate transfer rules now, but has there been any mention of going back to anything like that? or gone forever?

Yeah, maybe if Leipold can get KU to a bowl game in 2 years, then Deion can, too. He's probably going to have to figure out a way to ease up his nonconferece schedule to make that happen, though. There aren't enough good players in the portal to make any sort of immediate success happen.

Wasn’t he always a concern to leave because his father was an oline coach at Oregon?

Pops is the OL coach for the Patriots. I’d say this one is more about being buried on the depth chart.

He's not there anymore. Sucks, kid has good size, this was an unfortunate possibility of letting all those guys come back with COVID years, hope we don't lose any more young guys.

If he left due to starters sticking around, I'm ok with the trade if we're as good as I think we can be this year.
I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

Hopefully it is because Will Lee already passed him on the depth chart for a starting CB slot.

this one came out of nowhere. 6'4 QB from Minnesota. class of '22, recruited him pretty hard a year ago.

Looks like a quality back up for the Howitzer with some Kline battering ram in him.

Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

I'm shocked he came back this year. Knuth will be Avery's back up.
