It’s hard to compare era’s, but the talent of those three in their college years with modern offensive concepts would be insane.

Who are your 3 all-time Buffs?
- Thread starter Buffnik
- Start date
Kordell was the starter my first fall at CU. The first CU QB I remember though was Randy Essington, so I've probably seen more bad than good really.
So? He has a giraffe onesie.
Hunter, Crosby, Sanders
Honorable mention: Soupy
Also: The Rabid Goldfish
Andre Gurode, Victor Rogers, and Kordell Stewart.
Gurode is one of the all-time best players to play at CU. The holes he and Rogers were plowing in the run game were legendary. Kordell was a trailblazer. His abilities as a true duel threat were absolutely decades ahead of his time.

I contemplated the idea of saying Gurode, Rogers and Graham as it's hard to beat that trio working together in the run and pass game and they made it possible for a JAG QB with JAG WRs to almost lead that team to a National Championship berth.
Obviously it was a different era, but a foundation of those three would be great even in today's game
Perfect comments about some real game-changing players
Daniel Graham was so special in college and could do anything he wanted inside and outside and would block like an OL. He would even run a crossing wheel route and as soon as the ILB was too far behind him, he would run outside and up and was always open. Would love to see that play installed this year for our new TE.
Rogers was great, but I think I'd swap in Chris Naole for him if I was going for the two most dominant guards.

This question is so era dependent
Give me
1. Kordell
2. Viska
3. Sykes
Those are the 3 I could see being elite in any era of CFB.
This isn't the Iowa board
So many great names an so many great memories.
Great post.
I thought I was in Barzil.
- Kordell - dude was an all pro in the NFL despite having many new OCs with no continuity of playbooks. Shedeur has a bit of work to do to get there (but I think he can). He would have been just as lethal in the modern RPO offense as he was in his time for the Buffs.
- Joel Steed - I believe he was the best NT in our history and a great anchor on defense.
- This last one is tough. I'm going to go with pre-injury Jashon Sykes. That guy was a future AA and NFL star if he hadn't had that freak injury to his back (?). Really a shame.
No Darah ONeil?
Too flashy.
I find your lack of Torp disturbing.
