Since 2005, the Buffs have started 10, 11, 9, 9, 12, 12, 14, 15, 13, and 7 whites. This year will see roughly the same racial makeup with 8 whites expected to start. The large drop off the past two years can be largely attributed to 3rd year coach Mike McIntyre, another in a long line of failed coaches up in Boulder over the past decade.

The one to watch again this year is Wide Receiver Nelson Spruce who had 106 catches for 1200 yards and 12 TDs in 2014. Much of his damage was done the 1st half of the season, so it should be interesting to see if he can keep up a torrid pace throughout the season.

Offense
Nelson Spruce - WR
Jeromy Irwin - LT
Shane Callahan - LG
Alex Kelley - C
Gerrard Kough - RG
Sean Irwin - TE

Defense
Addison Gillam - ILB
Richard Yates II - SS

Thanks for the write-up.
The wheels have kinda' come off Colorado's program; basically been AWOL for 15 years now. Just to verify, I took a look @ their recent win-losses, they've only registered a single bowl win in the last 15 seasons (coming in the storied Houston Bowl). Sounds like they're getting progressively casted as well, so..
They'll always have the early '90s to reminisce on, and their home field cameo at the ending credits on one of the Mork & Mindy seasons.

Colorado could turn their program around in 1 or 2 seasons if they would simply recruit all the overlooked White talent in state and in the neighboring states. Look at Boise St and BYU. How do these mid-major programs win year after year, get into bowls and knock off top 25 teams? Well we know why.

All of these power conference perennial losers programs are the height of stupidity. Repeating the same mistakes year after year. They deserve no sympathy.

Great post freethinker.

Its amazing to me seeing all the mid/lower level FBS teams just playing copycat with the brand name teams - just recruit as black as possible and recruit from Florida even if you are eastern Michigan, Miami of Ohio, UMASS, New Mexico, unles etc. These types of teams churn out ****ty black laden teams year after year and still only manage to win a few games a season. The perennial losers in college football would be much wiser to start looking elsewhere to get actual talent to fill their rosters rather than recruiting a bunch of guys who "look the part" according to bspn and all the jock sniffing weenies. So much wasted talent out there because our guys lack melanin which trumps actual skill and ability in american sports.

Seriously! How many negroes are there in Florida between the age of 17 and 22 who play football? It's like mining the same quarry to the point of depletion when there's a huge, untapped reserve just over the other side of the mountain.

We all know that this is true. The problem is that the overwhelming majority of white talent is nowhere to be found on any recruiting service. The only way that schools can find them is to find them all by themselves, sending countless numbers of scouts to high school football games. It would be a monumental task for a school to do this on their own, so that's why most "talent" is simply gleaned from the racist scouting services. That is what we are up against. There are thousands of majority-white HS teams with tens of thousands of really, really outstanding white athletes that are simply disregarded by the scouts.

this.

i just posted about a kid, Nick Deluca, in the Class of 2016 thread. he is currently the #1-rated wide receiver in North America (he goes to school in Canada) according to the Sparq/Nike Combine guys ... yet he doesn't even have a Scout profile, much less a scholarship offer. it's as if there is an agenda ...

Moeller replaces Richard Yates II who was also White. I didn't see Yates II listed on the two-deep. Don't know what happened.
