BOULDER – This is the time of year when the University of Colorado’s defensive linemen can expect daily – sometimes it might seem like hourly – contact with their position coach, Jim Jeffcoat.
But Jeffcoat expects a little extra conversation from senior Justin Solis: a daily text with an update on a weighty subject – Solis’ current poundage.
“It’s a big thing for all D-linemen,” Jeffcoat said the other morning during a conversation on playing weight, conditioning, Solis and the Buffs’ improved (and still improving) play up front.
Jeffcoat knows something about conditioning and staying in shape.
