2015 Football Schedule Preview: Colorado Buffs - needle - 08-04-2015

This article about the Colorado Buffaloes plays up their potential.

It was news to me that Jim Leavitt is now their defensive coordinator.

Stanford @ Colorado Nov. 7

Quote: Starting quarterback Sefo Liufau, an honorable mention all-conference selection in 2014, returns for his junior season, as do his top two receiving targets from last year, including 2014 Biletnikoff semifinalist Nelson Spruce. Both lines are still quite young, but there’s incoming playmaking potential on the D-line. And the first year of a defensive unit under a new coordinator, given the presence of Leavitt, sounds infinitely preferable to last season’s 39 points allowed per game.

EDIT: What you need to know about Leavitt

Quote: In a football sense, Leavitt is nothing but a winner. In a football culture sense, it seems that losing leaves a bigger stain on a coach's career than a slapping a kid in front of multiple witnesses.

Even if you don't believe the 58-year-old Leavitt grabbed Miller by the throat and struck him twice at halftime of a key game against Louisville in November 2009, you have to agree in any other walk of life, the mere insinuation of such an act could ruin a career.

The college football machine values one thing and one thing only.  Apparently your moral integrity is based on your ability to help a team advance a pigskin down the field or prevent an opponent from doing so.

Let's all remember his gig before this Colorado one was on our beloved Harbaugh's 49ers staff.
