BOULDER – Day one of year two under coach Mike MacIntyre might not have been any easier for the University of Colorado football team, but there was more familiarity – and that helped ease CU’s returning players into August camp on Saturday morning.
MacIntyre said he noticed more first-day efficiency on both sides of the ball as well as a group of more fit, well-conditioned Buffaloes.
“I think we’re in better physical shape right now,” he said. “We’ll see when we get out there and put pads on (but) I think we’re deeper and in better shape.”
He added that Saturday morning’s nearly three-hour practice started well, slowed when the teaching accelerated, then picked back up. Nonetheless, “We’re way ahead of where we were last year at this time,” said MacIntyre, whose 2013 CU team finished 4-8 and second CU squad returns 15 starters and 50 lettermen.
