The 2016 Colorado football team that won the Pac-12 South division may always be remembered for the tremendous leaders that turned the program around that fall and the attention to detail they had in producing a 10-win season.
Last year, with many of those leaders gone, the Buffaloes slipped to 5-7 and last in the South.
CU head coach Mike MacIntyre has emphasized improvement on leadership this offseason.
"Last year was good, but not as good as the year before," he said. "(In 2016), you had some guys that had been through a lot of things and really valued every bit of it.
