One of CU's Top Defensive Players Was 70
BOULDER – Bill Brundige, one of the best defensive players in the history of University of Colorado football, passed away last Saturday (Dec. 29) after a long battle with cancer. He was 70.
Brundige had retired to Knoxville, Tenn., and was surrounded by family when he passed peacefully at his home.
A 2016 inductee into CU's Athletic Hall of Fame, Brundige was a first-team All-American by the Football Writers Association of America/Look Magazine as a senior in 1969, when both wire services (AP, United Press International) named him to their second teams.
