CU football: Buffs' Nembot enjoys 'once-in-a-lifetime experience'

BURBANK, Calif. -- Massive Colorado offensive tackle Stephane Nembot nearly took out a Pac-12 Network cameraman Thursday with a baseball bat while beating a piñata.

These things happen at Pac-12 football media days.

Only a few dozen college football players get to experience a day like Nembot and linebacker Kenneth Olugbode enjoyed on the first day of the two-day event at Warner Bros Studios. In addition to dozens of interviews with hundreds of media members, the two Buffs and coach Mike MacIntyre dressed up like Cowboys, participated in a golf putting contest, donned uniforms for a photo shoot and took swings at a Ralphie-shaped piñata on the historic lot where hundreds of films and television shows have been produced.
