On Friday morning, as Colorado head coach Karl Dorrell was preparing for that day’s events at Pac-12 media day in Los Angeles, he felt the need to address the preseason predictions with the two players with him.
The day before, the conference released the preseason media poll and it had the Buffaloes projected for last place. Wanting to guard his players from negative thoughts, Dorrell brought it up with guard Casey Roddick and Robert Barnes.
Head football coach, Karl Dorrell, during the University of Colorado Boulder football scrimmage on April 9, 2022. “Last year was the worst year and I never want to be a part of another year like that,” Roddick said. “That’s definitely driven us in this offseason and helped motivate us.” CU has an interesting roster in that it’s a mix between veterans and youth. The Buffs lost several key players to graduation and they were hit hard by the transfer portal. Six starters — including 75% of the starting secondary — transferred to other schools.
Barnes and Roddick both cited the significance of the Buffs bringing in transfers from winning programs. Offensive lineman Tommy Brown transferred from Alabama. Receiver RJ Sneed came from Baylor. Linebacker Josh Chandler-Semedo came from West Virginia. All have been leaders in their short time in Boulder.
