BOULDER — As I toured what will be the University of Colorado football team's new headquarters, with its state-of-the-art locker room and touch-screen televisions and underwater treadmills, it made me wonder. How did CU ever get recruits before all this?
The Buffs haven't had a facility overhaul since 1991, which was, of course, the year after they won the national championship.
Now in 2015, they're not just keeping up with the Joneses — they're keeping up with the Jetsons.
Along with an indoor practice facility, the mother ship called the Champions Center cost them $156 million — and looks like it's from a new millennium.
