Colorado seniors Jordan Murphy and Wyatt Tucker Smith took very different routes to Boulder, but their results since arriving have been very similar: their hard work, desire and belief in consistency have made them key members of the CU Buffaloes’ special teams.
Murphy, a senior fullback, transferred to Colorado from Colorado State after his freshman year there. Smith, a senior long snapper, transferred to CU after two seasons at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College.
Since arriving in Boulder, Murphy has displayed a work ethic that immediately caught the eye of coaches. His determination was rewarded last season when CU coaches named him the recipient of the Bill McCartney Award for special teams excellence.
