Tad Boyle and the Buffs are radiating with excitement in the lead-up to the 2023-2024 basketball season. Last year’s squad was plagued by inconsistencies, turnovers and injuries that delivered an 8th-place finish in the Pac-12 with a regular season record of 18-17. While the arrivals of former TCU Horned Frog Eddie Lampkin and a talented freshmen class led by five-star…
With the announcement of Tristan da Silva’s return for his fourth season in the black and gold, Tad Boyle & company are primed to turn heads this upcoming season with a bolstered squad.

Colorado’s season came to a swift end after their second-round NIT loss to Utah Valley and it only took a matter of days before we saw three players enter the transfer portal and two players seek NBA Draft feedback.

Things didn’t go totally according to plan this year with Colorado coming up short of the NCAA tournament’s field of 68. However, an opportunity still presented itself for this young squad in the form of an NIT invite. CU hosted two NIT games the past week, defeating Seton Hall in the first round before falling to Utah Valley in the…
Tad Boyle has had his fair share of projects during his tenure at CU. From Andre Roberson to Spencer Dinwiddie to McKinley Wright IV to Jabari Walker, multiple three-star athletes have walked into Boulder as low-profile prospects, and walked out as NBA-level players; the next one in line is Tristan da Silva. When Jabari Walker and Evan Battey left the…
The Southern California schools traveled to Boulder this past weekend and made their presence felt at the CU Events Center.

Following KJ Simpson’s game-winner against Washington State, CU looked to capitalize on that big-time moment and start a new win streak in their trip up to Oregon. The Ducks and Beavers had different plans. Colorado finished their latest road trip 0-2, losing both contests in close efforts. As the Buffs continue to slip further down the Pac-12 standings, concern starts…
After two tough losses out west last week, Colorado looked to rebound with a two-game homestand hosting the Washington schools. The much-needed rebound eventually came on Sunday when Washington State came to town. However, Thursday’s troubling loss to Washington further exposed the Buffs’ weaknesses and now CU finds themselves toward the bottom of the Pac-12 standings. With another week in…

The Buffs’ performance at the Myrtle Beach Invitational was as entertaining as it was confusing. The highlight of the tournament was Friday’s huge 103-75 upset win over the #24 Texas A&M Aggies. But the high of that win was dragged down by Colorado’s disappointing losses against UMass on Thursday and Boise State on Sunday. To try and make sense of…
CU basketball fans were on one crazy emotional roller coaster last weekend. Colorado’s early season road trip got off to a rough start on Friday night against Grambling.
