Looking for more positive signs about the direction of the CU football program, beyond the team’s flashy new uniform combinations, the Buffs glistening new training facilities, a commitment from a four-star recruit out of a prep football hotbed like Florida and a nice 3-1 start? The University of Colorado is starting to see some excitement from past greats, as players who know what a winning team looks like are starting to buy into this year’s Buffaloes.
On Saturday, this was repeatedly evident on Twitter, as Colorado’s 48-0 trouncing of Nicholls State at Folsom Field was heralded by some of the program’s most-prominent ex-players, including former quarterback Joel Klatt, who is now one of the top college football analysts for Fox Sports.
