CU athletic director Rick George walked across campus recently when his phone buzzed. A text from legendary Buffs coach Bill McCartney. Big news.
T.C. got offered the job!
George smiled, because it referred to who just landed the gig as Denver Broncos quarterbacks coach, and the T.C. who accepted it was once a young trick-or-treater George helped look after in a late 1980s Boulder neighborhood. George, then a CU assistant football coach, raised his youngest daughter at the same time as T.C., the grandson of Bill McCartney and the son of the great late Buffs quarterback Sal Aunese, grew up.
