Players and coaches from the Ricardo Patton era at CU gather for Saturday's reunion.
BOULDER — It is a scenario that has become an annual tradition with Colorado basketball.
Players and coaches from a past era walk into the CU Events Center for a morning Buffs practice. Smiles and handshakes abound as faces from the past are recognized. Very soon, stories are told, games are replayed and old friendships are renewed as Buffs from past years catch up on what their former teammates — and their families — are doing now.
But perhaps most importantly, the family bond of Colorado basketball is strengthened.
