BOULDER — Will the real Mike MacIntyre please stand up?
To tell the truth, we don’t know if Colorado’s football program has the right coach to return the Buffaloes to glory. Is MacIntyre coach-of-the-year material, as we saw in 2016? Or is he the guy who has gone 15-34 during his other four years on the CU sideline?
The difference between the Buffs’ giddy rise and harsh return to reality, when their victory total dropped from 10 to five within the span of 12 months, was the math problem that consumed MacIntyre as he prepared for his sixth year on the job at CU.
