Remember the 2020 season?
Karl Dorrell’s only success in Boulder came in his first year when the Buffs won four games in the COVID-19-shortened campaign to earn a spot in the Alamo Bowl. That feels almost like ancient history now, though.
Leading Colorado at quarterback in 2020 was Sam Noyer, who split for Oregon State the following season. Noyer never saw the field much for the Beavers, however, and it’s fair to wonder if he would’ve started over Brendon Lewis last year.
Almost everything imaginable has gone wrong at CU since Noyer left and just two years later, Dorrell is now gone. But still, Noyer’s time in the spotlight was memorable and he had some kind words to share on Twitter upon learning of his former head coach’s dismissal:
I will forever be thankful for @k_dorrell and the risk he took on bringing me back to Boulder in 2020. I wish you only the best coach 🤝

Noyer also tweeted this:
I 100% believe in @RickGeorgeCU and his staff. I know that under his leadership and with the right support, the buffaloes will get things turned around in Boulder #GoBuffs
