BOULDER — "Develop. Develop. Develop."
That recent social media message from Colorado Buffaloes coach Karl Dorrell succinctly wrapped up his spring football philosophy.
Develop depth, develop young players for the future, and develop a culture that will create the discipline and accountability necessary to produce sustainable success over the long haul.
So far, Dorrell's first spring session with the Buffs has been a solid portrayal of that philosophy. While no doubt critical in terms of X's and O's — CU coaches are implementing substantial changes on both sides of the ball this spring — these 15 practices may be equally important in terms of Dorrell having the opportunity to truly establish a foundation for the program.
