I hate saying this after the fact but I seriously told multiple people and meant to put it in that post...CU simply could NOT afford for Foster to have a 6-15 type game. He's their best scorer and he had to have a good game. If you told me before the game he was going to go 6-19/1-7 I would have put a lot of money on URI.
Mercifully, this season is over. Absolutely amazing 18-1 start. Just a heartbreaking and, ultimately, life ruining injury for Watson personally and season wrecking injury for CU. Such highs and lows in one season. This team, with Mo, was a threat to do major damage. He was that good. And he made everyone...EVERYONE so much better. He single handedly made Patton a few million dollars if he leaves now. If we weren't sure how good he was we are now.
The future is bright but I hate "next season". Patton should come back. Foster, as much as I don't like him, will be back. Thomas is a flat out stud and will be back. That's a good core. Hopefully either Mintz or the former 4* transfer from 'cuse can be a factor at the point. two of the 3 frosh should be ready to go out of the gate. Fortunately, Hegner will be the last MVC holdover. Mac simply can't be trusted to NOT lean on those guys.
Two things we need to know soon (well...want to know). Will Patton stay? And will Tugs Bowen say "YES"?
