  • Read Rick George's Full Bio
    Rick George was named athletic director at the University of Colorado on July 17, 2013, returning to Boulder where he helped play a role in the school’s first and only national championship in football some 23 years earlier. George, 59, came to Colorado from the Texas Rangers baseball club of the American League, where he was named chief operating officer on October 5, 2010 with a promotion to president of business operations in February 2013. He agreed to a 5-year contract at CU, and he officially started on the job on August 12, 2013. In June 2016, the Board of Regents approved a contract extension through 2020-21, and in June 2019, the Regents once again extended him through the 2023-24 academic and athletic year. He is just the sixth full-time athletic director in Colorado history, following in the footsteps of Harry Carlson (1927-65), Eddie Crowder (1965-84), Bill Marolt (1984-96), Dick Tharp (1996- 2004) and Mike Bohn (2005-13). Two others have bridged directors in interim capacities, Jack Lengyel (six months between Tharp and Bohn) and Ceal Barry (two months between Bohn and George). His list of achievements in his first 1,000 days in the position were many, but none more significant than shepherding through a $156 million Athletic Complex Expansion from creation through fruition, gaining approval from the Board of Regents and then raising nearly one-half of the estimated cost to initiate construction, which began May 12, 2014. The project was the core of the Sustainable Excellence Initiative (SEI), the jewel of which was a long-awaited indoor practice facility.

  • Dislocated Hip Nothing New for Rahlves,Scotty
    Dislocated hip nothing new for Rahlves By ESPN ASPEN, Colo. — U.S. Olympic freestyle skier Daron Rahlves dislocated his right hip after a nasty wreck in his opening skicross race Sunday at the Winter X Games, an injury that could hurt his chances of going to Vancouver. But a doctor who checked him out at the scene was optimistic about Rahlves’ prognosis after the crash that resulted in the 36-year-old’s fourth hip dislocation. Daron Rahlves Rahlves, slated for his fourth Olympics, was putting pressure on the hip only hours after the accident. U.S. Ski and Snowboard officials said he was treated for a hip injury at the hospital and released late Sunday afternoon. The doctor who treated him after the wreck said the fact this is Rahlves’ fourth dislocation should make the injury more manageable. Read the whole story Scotty Bahrke leads U.S. in World Cup aerials By USSA MONT GABRIEL, Quebec City — Scotty Bahrke (Tahoe City, CA) took a season-best ninth place to lead the U.S. Team in FIS World Cup Cup aerials action Saturday in Quebec.

    Famed CU coach Eddie Crowder dies Page 1 of 3 Famed CU coach Eddie Crowder dies By Neill Woelk Wednesday, September 10, 2008 Eddie Crowder, the man who took Colorado’s football program to national prominence as a coach and set the stage for one of the school’s most successful eras as its athletic director, died Tuesday of complications from leukemia. He was 77. Crowder leaves an unmatched legacy at CU. No other man has had more of an influence on Colorado’s athletic department, with that influence spanning more than four decades. As the football coach for 11 years, Crowder led CU to a No. 3 finish in the nation in 1971, five bowl games and a 67-49-2 record, including CU’s first 10-win season in 1971. As CU’s athletic director for 20 years, he took Colorado into the era of big-time college athletics. He also recovered from what he would later call his “biggest mistake” — the hiring of Chuck Fairbanks as the Buffs’ football coach — to set the stage for what would become a golden era of CU athletics. “Eddie Crowder held Colorado athletics together,” said former Big Eight commissioner Chuck Neinas. “Let’s be candid — Colorado has never had the resources of an Oklahoma or Nebraska. “But in large part, they’ve been able to compete with those schools on a fairly regular basis because of the efforts of a guy like Eddie.” Crowder’s influence is still being felt at CU. Two of his final hires were football coach Bill McCartney and women’s basketball coach Ceal Barry, both of whom led the Buffs to unprecedented national prominence.
