Where's the Bzzzzz(delik)?
Posted January 18, 2008
Last weekend I entered the lonely world that is CU men's basketball. And I'd like to invite you -- the few, the proud, the Buffs hoops junkies -- to please join me as we work our way out of the Big 12 basement.
I've covered the Broncos for the Camera since the 2000 season and usually have a lot of company (fellow media members) on the road for dinner or sight-seeing. But it was just me and the Buffs last Saturday in College Station.
So why don't you help me? If you have any questions you would like Jeff Bzdelik or Richard Roby or anyone else in the program to answer, email them to me (thorburnr@dailycamera.com) and I will do my best to get them answered for you in this blog forum on a weekly basis.
And I'll also sprinke in some anecdotes from the road and behind the scenes with the team.
Hope to hear from some Buffs hoops fans soon. Make sure you read tomorrow's story from Austin to learn something new about your head coach.

Can you give an update on how our recruits are doing in their high school senior season?

Has Coach Bzzz settled into a set game rotation of 7-8 players? Are there plans to up the minutes for Knutson, Thorne and Patterson? Fatigue has got to be a concern with such a small core group of players. Any other measures, other than shortening practice, to save wear/tear on these guys?

Coach Bzdelik
Hoops recruiting at CU is not followed with nearly the fervor that football is, needless to say a lot of us are kind of in the dark on our new class. Please give us your breakdown of the new Buffs.

What was the reasons behind redshirting Jeremy Williams. Missing only ten games would have been only 1/3 of the season. Clearly the team needs a big man, he would have added the much needed depth at the position that we are so desperately in need of this year. The announcement was a shock to me when I heard it. It almost seemed like looking to the future instead of trying to win today, especially when we have to seniors like Roby and Hall who are desperate to win.
