Other Tidbits / Did You Know? Romeo Bandison lists as the one person he most would most like to meet as American entrepreneur Russell Simmons, the co‐founder of the hip‐hop label Def Jam among his many accomplishments. Brian Cabral was the special teams captain of the Super Bowl champion 1985 Chicago Bears; however, he did not appear in the infamous Super Bowl Shuffle song and video recorded that season. He was on hand to participate, but the session was running two hours late and he had to get to another appointment. He let us in on this secret: “It was pretty prophetic; we filmed it in week seven.” That while the very low‐key Ron Collins loves to golf, he was so frustrated in his first Casotti Classic that he actually tossed his golf bag in a creek. Darian Hagan lists the 1991 Orange Bowl (national championship game for CU vs. Notre Dame) as the most memorable sporting event in his life, despite being injured (torn ACL) late in the first half. Dan Hawkins said if he hadn’t met his wife, Misti, when he did, he says he likely would have been destined to be a “football monk.” Hawkins’ first car is also one he would love to find and buy in original condition: a 1959 Chevy Stepside Slant 6 Automatic Pickup Truck. Denver Johnson was already familiar with Ralphie, CU’s live mascot, before he came to Boulder. As a graduate assistant on the Oklahoma State coaching staff in 1985, he was wandering on the field, when as he puts it, “I look around and here came a rather large buffalo running toward me with some young people dangling at the end of ropes.” Eric Kiesau is good friends with Adam Durwitz, the lead singer of the Counting Crows? Durwitz, a Cal‐Berkeley grad, always used to go to the Bears’ football practices (Eric said he’d miss sound checks to be at some of them). Kent Riddle spent six years on the Army staff and some of his greatest memories were the opportunities to hear some of our greatest generals like Norman Schwarzkopf speak in rooms that held less than 100 people. 2010 COLORADO BUFFALO FOOTBALL: Seven Quick Questions / The Players2-2-2 SEVEN QUICK QUESTIONS The players were asked to answer up to seven different questions; here are their responses: What is your What musician/ What 3 people What hobby What is the favorite junk food What is your Who is your singer would would you invite could you see best Christmas or you know you favorite break‐ favorite you like to be to play golf, poker getting into as birthday present Student‐Athlete should avoid? fast meal?
