BOULDER — Colorado head coach Mel Tucker conducted a "teaching moment" for the Buffaloes on Monday morning.
Guaranteed, the Buffs got the message.
Early in practice, Tucker was clearly not happy with the Buffs' attention and effort, particularly after a day off. Tucker stopped practice, gathered the team together — then started practice from the beginning.
"I told them, we're not going to be able to start games over," Tucker told the media after practice. "(We can't) go back to the locker room, come back out. We have to be ready to go every time.
