Pac-12 coaches must think Tyler Bey is the best player in Colorado Buffaloes history, because that’s the only reason I can think as to why the Buffs were picked 7th in the Pac-12 preseason poll.
The Buffs lose the Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, but they are returning major players such as McKinley Wright IV, D’Shawn Schwartz and Evan Battey, plus will be welcoming in Tulsa transfer Jeriah Horne and a litany of talented freshmen. CU also lost Shane Gatling and Lucas Siewert, but no disrespect to them, they are not irreplaceable players.
Wright, it shouldn’t be forgotten, is a two-time first-team All-Pac-12 recipient, and is far and away this team’s best and most important player.
