Colorado’s Mike MacIntyre named 2016 Walter Camp Coach of the Year

Colorado Buffaloes head coach Mike MacIntyre has been named the 2016 Walter Camp Coach of the Year, becoming only the second coach in CU history to receive the honor (Bill McCartney, 1989).

In his fourth season, MacIntyre has orchestrated a historic turnaround in leading the Buffaloes to a 10-2 record and a No. 8 ranking. CU notched it's first 10-win season since the 2001 season and became bowl eligible for the first time since 2007 (Independence Bowl vs. Alabama).

MacIntyre’s the fifth coach from the Pac-12 to receive the award, joining Chip Kelly (2010, Oregon), Bruce Snyder (1996, Arizona State), McCartney and Frank Kush (1975, Arizona State).
