Remember: Colorado was among the first states to legalize recreational weed.
That is all.

I lived in Colorado when the Bill McCartney era was in full swing. The Buffs have not been relevant since. They are making a sound business decision.

Honestly I thought he’d be done after his sons graduated. Kudos for turning around a moribund program.

coach is nearing 60 I think?
I dont know if I'd want the head-aches at that age vs chilling or taking it a little easier than being a head coach.
Guy must love the kids, the coaching and game-day - a lot.

For sure. My son lives in Westminster, but spends a decent amount of time with friends in Boulder. Said the town is electric during college football season under Sanders.
