2 UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO

Founded in 1876 at the foot of the Flatirons, over 143 years has transformed the University of Colorado from a lone building on a bleak, windswept hill to one of the nation’s leading public research institutions. Established in 1861, the University was formally founded in 1876, the year Colorado became a state.

The Boulder campus encompasses over 1,100 acres on the main campus in the heart of town, east campus (which includes a research park), south campus, Williams Village and the Mountain Research Station north of nearby Nederland (which supports ecology, chemistry and geology).

While over 33,200 students are educated on the Boulder campus, another 34,000-plus study at the University of Colorado at Denver, the University of Colorado Anschutz Campus (Aurora) and the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs. Nine elected Regents and President Mark Kennedy lead the four-campus system, while each campus has a Chancellor who serves as the chief academic and administrative officer. Dr. Phil DiStefano is in his eleventh year as the chancellor of the Boulder campus.

7 PAC-12 CONFERENCE

Conference History

The roots of the Pac-12 Conference date back nearly 104 years to December 2, 1915, when the Pacific Coast Conference (PCC) was founded at a meeting at the Oregon Hotel in Portland. The original membership consisted of four schools — the University of California at Berkeley, the University of Washington, the , and Oregon State College (now ). All still are charter members of the Conference.

Pacific Coast Conference play began in 1916 and, one year later, Washington State College (now Washington State University) was accepted into the league, with following in 1918.

In 1922, the PCC expanded to eight teams with the admission of the University of Southern California (USC) and the University of Idaho. In 1924, the University of Montana joined the league roster, and in 1928, the PCC grew to 10 members with the addition of UCLA. Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott

The PCC continued as a nine-team conference through 1958. The Pac-12 Conference offices are located in the heart of San Francisco’s downtown district and are headquartered in the same building as the Pac- In 1959, the PCC was dissolved and the Athletic Association of Western 12 Network.

UCLA claimed titles in softball and women’s beach volleyball. California (women’s swimming), Colorado (women’s cross country), Southern California (men’s water polo), Utah (skiing) and Washington (rowing) rounded out the league’s victories.

Colorado added to its national championship count in 2018-19 with the school’s third women’s cross country crown, bringing the school’s total to 28. The Buffaloes finished third in skiing, fourth in men’s cross country, ninth in women’s outdoor track and 16th in men’s indoor track. CU has won 20 skiing titles (11 men’s, one AIAW women’s and eight coed) and eight cross country (five men’s, three women’s); the Buffs also were the consensus national champions in football in 1990, but since it is not an NCAA-sanctioned championship, it doesn’t count toward the Pac-12’s total of 526.

Folsom Field, named after legendary University of Colorado Coach Frederick Folsom, opened for the 1924 season and has been the football team’s home field ever since. The Buffaloes have played 95 seasons on the “hilltop,” and own one of the nation’s best all-time home records, as the Buffs are 315-175-10, a winning percentage of .640. In 2018, the home finale against Utah on November 17 was the 500th regular season game at Folsom. The stadium was dedicated on October 11, 1924, as Colorado defeated Regis College, 39-0. It actually was the second home game of the season, as CU closed out playing at Gamble Field the week before with a 31-0 win over Western State. Folsom is tied for the 21st oldest venue among the 130 NCAA Division I-A/FBS stadiums; it is the fifth oldest in the Pac-12 Conference. Through the years many improvements have been made, but the original beauty and intimate feeling has remained making it one of best venues in college Investigation of a natural ravine just east of the site of the football, if not all sports. gymnasium as a site for the new stadium, suggested by professor It originally was called Colorado Stadium, the name being changed Whitney Huntington, was not only a convenient location, but to Folsom Field in 1944 following Folsom’s death.

By comparison, the cost to construct Carlson Gym was $350,000. With expansion in mind when originally built, it was by design rather easy to add an upper deck. In 1956, Folsom Field’s capacity was upped to 45,000 when a second deck was erected around two-thirds of the stadium. Some 6,000 more seats were added in 1967 when the running track was removed and the team dressing facilities were constructed at the north end of the field. Improvements continued, as the gigantic six-level press box facility was added on the west side for the start of the 1968 season. It also serves as the home for CU’s Flatirons Club, a group of donors who financially support the athletic program. In the summer of 1976, Folsom Field had another face-lift, as the wooden bleacher seats were removed and replaced with silver and gold aluminum bleachers, expanding the stadium to a capacity of 52,005. The renovation of CU’s team house in the summer of 1979 The beginning of work on the stadium in January, 1924. took away a few seats, changing the capacity to 51,463. The

10 construction of the magnificent Dal Ward Center in 1991 added new bleacher seating in the north end zone and increased the capacity to 51,748. In 1992, the addition of a yellow concourse wall on the southeast side took away a few hundred seats, and corporate boxes (in 1995) lowered the capacity to 51,655. The removal of a set of old rickety bleachers in 2001 and a few other changes placed the stadium capacity at 50,942, but that figure stood for just two seasons. The addition of suites and club seating on the east side (at a cost of $45.2 million) completed in August 2003 increased the capacity to 53,750, an all-time Folsom Field high. Prior to the 1971 season, the playing surface at Folsom Field was natural grass. Monsanto of St. Louis, Mo., replaced the natural grass with Astroturf for the 1971 campaign, with the first game being played on the artificial surface against the University of Wyoming on September 18 (the Buffs won 56-13); it was a godsend, as that very morning, Boulder received a rare late summer snowstorm that blanketed the field with more than two feet of snow. The original Astroturf surface was replaced with a “new rug” for the start of the 1978 season, and in the summer of 1989, “Astroturf-8” was installed, the third artificial surfacing in the school’s history. Folsom was covered with artificial surfaces for 28 seasons (168 games), and it was fairly friendly for the Buffs, which posted a 110-56-2 record in those games. In the spring of 1999, Folsom Field returned to natural grass, as “SportGrass” was installed on the stadium floor. The project, which included bio- thermal heating, drainage and a sub-air system, cost $1.2 million. Video display boards, known as “BuffVision” were also added in the summer of 1999 at a cost of $3.6 million; those were updated with state-of-the-art HD technology in 2012 at a cost of about $6.5 million. In 2003, completion of a $45.2 million east side renovation added 1,903 club seats and 41 suites, increasing Folsom’s capacity to its all-time high of 53,750. The state-of-the art complex remains one of the best in , is not nearly as high as many clubs and suites at most stadiums, and offers a great view of the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and when clear, the Continental Divide. The capacity of Folsom was 53,613 from 2007- 13, following the removal of the fourth rows from three different levels of the Flatirons Club prior to the 2007 season (seats that always had some kind of obstructed view). In 2014, the north end zone bleachers and two northeast corner sections of the stadium were completely renovated into loge and club seating, altering the capacity to its current number of 50,183.

11 FOLSOM CONCERT HISTORY Folsom Field was one of the premier venues for stadium concerts at the height of their popularity in the 1970s and 1980s. In fact, the largest crowd in its history was for what was billed as the Folsom Music Festival on May 1, 1977: 61,500 people attended the rain-soaked mega concert featuring Fleetwood Mac, Bob Seger’s Silver Bullet Band, Boulder’s own Firefall and John Sebastian. Eventually for assorted reasons, Folsom hosted less concerts and a 15-year dormancy in shows ended in the summer of 2016 with the Dead & Company performing two concerts. It all started in 1969 with a show headlined by The Byrds and the Steve Miller Band. And a side note: at CU’s 2000 graduation ceremony, with his daughter graduating, Neil Diamond sang the national anthem. Balch Fieldhouse, the CU Events Center and Macky Auditorium have also played host to other concerts on campus. Here’s the list of Folsom’s stadium shows: 1969 1980 September 7 – The Byrds, Steve Miller Band, Sons of June 7 & 8 – Grateful Dead Champlin, Buddy Guy, Country Joe & The Fish, Conal June 28 – Eagles Implosion, Tim Hardin, Lights by Spontaneity. 1981 1971 October 3 & 4 – Rolling Stones, George Thorogood May – It’s A Beautiful Day, Albert King 1982 1972 August 21 – REO Speedwagon, Ted Nugent, Scorpions September 3 – The Grateful Dead October 17– John Cougar, Jethro Tull, The Who 1974 1983 September 9 – Leon Russell, Little Feat August 30 – Simon & Garfunkel 1975 1986 May 10 – Doobie Brothers July 12 – Van Halen 1977 1989 May 1 (Folsom Music Festival) – Fleetwood Mac, Bob Seger, August 13 – The Who Firefall, John Sebastian (attendance: 61,500) June 16 – Foreigner 1993 May 26 – Paul McCartney 1978 May 13 (Sun Day #1) – The Beach Boys, Journey, Firefall, 2001 Bob Welch July 11 – Dave Matthews Band July 16 (Sun Day #2) – Rolling Stones, Kansas, Peter Tosh 2016 July 21 (Sun Day #3) – Fleetwood Mac July 2 & 3 – Dead & Company July 29 (Sun Day #4) – Eagles, Steve Miller Band 2017 1979 June 9 & 10 – Dead & Company May 13 (Sun Day #1) – Doobie Brothers, Boston, Country Joe MacDonald 2018 July 19 (Sun Day #2) – REO Speedwagon, Cheap Trick July 13 & 14 – Dead & Company 2019 July 5 & 6 – Dead & Company

12 ATHLETICS COMPLEX EXPANSION

The official groundbreaking took place on May 12, 2014, the following August. The $14 million building was completely signifying the start of CU’s $156 million Athletics Complex funded through private donations. The multi-functional, state-of- Expansion (ACE), the most aggressive construction project the-art structure was one of the top facilities anywhere in college undertaken by the university in relation to athletics since 1924, athletics upon its completion. The DWAC boasted 92,000 square when Folsom Field was built. The project had three distinct feet that included academic, sports medicine and weight training phases: first was to renovate seating in two areas of Folsom, the centers, a full-service kitchen and daily dining area, an auditorium, north bleachers and the northeast corner (sections 121 and 122), men’s and women’s locker rooms, a player’s lounge and offices both replaced with high-end club seating (1,876 total).

Ward was the head coach for the Buffaloes for 11 seasons (1948-1958), compiling a 63-41-6 record, which made him the third-winningest coach in CU history at the time. His teams, noted for the single wing offense, were a constant threat to Oklahoma’s supremacy in the Big Seven Conference. The tile roof, native stone walls and traditional Italinate architecture were selected to compliment the style of the Boulder campus, and it also established a new sense of entry to the campus coming from the north. The building features a dramatic two story entry and lobby space with a grand staircase. In 1999, a state-of- the-art video replay board, known as “BuffVision,” replaced the original scoreboard. “We have built something that will truly give our athletes a chance to compete with the best,” then-athletic director Bill Marolt said. The building was designed by the architectural firm of Sink Combs Dethlefs of Denver, with construction performed by Gerald H. Phipps, Inc. But over the course of time, as is often the case with many new buildings, the needs of athletics and the football program outgrew what the Dal Ward Center could provide. Sure, there were a few tweaks and minor remodeling through the years, but as part of the ACE, there was a 37,000-square foot renovation that included the addition of men’s and women’s Olympic sports locker rooms, expansion of the Herbst Academic Center and a new weight room. The former athletic director’s offices were converted into a leadership development program suite and a Club created overlooking Folsom Field. CHAMPIONS CENTER The jewel of the ACE was no doubt the construction of the state-of-the-art Champions Center, a 212,000-square foot, six- story structure erected on the northeast corner of Folsom Field. The building houses new football offices, almost all of the athletic administration and Olympic sport coaches, new areas for sports DAL WARD ATHLETIC CENTER medicine, strength and conditioning and equipment, meeting The 1990-91 athletic season was a landmark one for the rooms, a dining facility and a rooftop terrace for game days and University of Colorado in two areas.

INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY When inclement weather hit during the fall or during spring practices, there were two choices prior to 2016: practice inside Balch Fieldhouse, or since 2006, an erected bubble-like complex that stood on the west practice field for six months out of the year. But that all changed with the third phase of the ACE, which added a 108,000-square foot, net zero energy (NZE) indoor practice facility (IPF), easily one of the best-ever constructed in college athletics. The facility can serve all sports programs, has a 90-foot maximum clear height to aid the kicking game, and has a six-lane, 300-meter competition-venue track allows CU to host IAFF and NCAA-sanctioned indoor track events. There are 2,604 solar panels on the roof that create approximately 1,200 MWh/year of power generation. A 534-space underground parking garage below the IPF was constructed and will be a boon to the game day experience for CU fans. The final part of this phase was the re-sodding of Franklin Field, a 106,000-square-foot outdoor grass practice field adjacent to the IPF that is the outdoor practice home for the Buffaloes. Less than one month after it opened, the Bleacher Report came out with its list of the top 15 indoor football practice facilities in the nation, and Colorado’s was included among them. The only other Pac-12 school was Oregon, and most of the others were at southern schools, likely built to deal with oppressive heat, hurricanes and tornadoes.

The facility was also designed with bricks, mortar and masonry work in the familiar CU style of architecture – Tuscan vernacular. That style was adopted for the campus nearly 100 years ago, to be reminiscent of the hill towns around Florence and Siena, Italy. (The consistency

15 mascot/nickname

The University of Colorado has one of the more unique mascots in all of intercollegiate athletics, a real buffalo named Ralphie. The tradition celebrated its 50th anniversary during the 2017 season. The live buffalo leads the football team out on the field both at the start of the game and second half. It is truly one of the special sights that exist anywhere in college or professional sports, especially for opposing teams, who often stop in their tracks watching the massive buffalo round the end zone and head directly at their sideline. The buffalo first appeared in 1934, three weeks after a contest to select an official school nickname by theSilver & Gold newspaper had come to an end and “Buffaloes” was the winning entry. For the final game of the ‘34 season, a group of students paid $25 to rent a buffalo calf along with a real cowboy as his keeper. The calf was the Today son of Killer, a famed bison at Trails End Ranch in Fort Collins. It took the cowboy and four students to keep the calf under control on the sidelines, a 7-0 win at the University of Denver on Thanksgiving Day. Prior to 1934, CU athletic teams usually were referred to as the “Silver and Gold,” but other nicknames teams were sometimes called included Silver Helmets, Yellow Jackets, Hornets, Arapahoes, Big Horns, Grizzlies and Frontiersmen. The student newspaper decided to supporter Mahlon White donated him to the school, and it was cared sponsor a national contest in the summer of 1934, with a $5 prize to go for by a men’s honorary. to the author of the winning selection. Entries, over 1,000 in all, arrived A few years passed between a live mascot on the sideline and the from almost every state in the union. Athletic Director Harry Carlson, tradition Colorado fans have come to know so well. In 1966, John graduate manager Walter Franklin and Kenneth Bundy of the Silver and Lowery, the father of a CU freshman from Lubbock, Texas, donated to Gold were the judges. the school a six-month old buffalo calf from Sedgewick, Colo., and first Local articles first reported that Claude Bates of New Madrid, Mo., appeared on Oct. 1, 1966 when the Buffs defeated Kansas State, 10-0. and James Proffitt of Cincinnati, Ohio, were co-winners for the prize For a while, she was billed as “Rraalph,” but the origin of the name as both submitted “Buffaloes” as their entry. But 10 days later, the is in some doubt. Some say it was given by the student body after newspaper declared Boulder resident Andrew Dickson the winner, sounds she allegedly made while running and snorting; others say it after a follow-up revealed his submission of “Buffaloes” had actually was named for Ralph Jay Wallace, the junior class president at the arrived several days before those of the original winners. Through time; and the original handlers will tell a third version. Regardless, an the years, synonyms which quickly came into use included “Bisons,” astute fan soon discovered that the buffalo was in fact a female, thus “Buffs,” “Thundering Herd,” “Stampeding Herd,” “Golden Avalanche,” the name alteration to Ralphie. and “Golden Buffaloes.” The initial tradition was for CU’s five sophomore class officers to run Live buffaloes made appearances at CU games on and off through the buffalo around the stadium in a full loop. They would pick her up the years, usually in a pen on the field or sometimes driven around in a from caretaker C.D. “Buddy” Hays, who kept her at the Green Mountain cage; in the 1940s, the school kept a baby buffalo in a special pen at the Riding Stables during the season at Hidden Valley Ranch in the off University Riding Academy. The first named buffalo was “Mr. Chips,” season. The officers would run her for two hours in the morning to tire who appeared for the first time at the 1957 CU Days kickoff rally, as her a bit to keep her under control by the time the game started. At the conclusion of the run, the fans would break into the “Buffalo Stomp,” which would literally shake the stadium in deafening fashion as the team took the field. But CU officials soon had the tradition stopped because of the actual physical damage it was causing. Around that same time, head coach Eddie Crowder was approached with the idea the charging buffalo running out on the field before the game with the team behind right her. Crowder thought it was a great idea, and the debut of this great tradition took place on Sept. 16, 1967, and was celebrated with a 27-7 win over Baylor and the tradition was here to stay. The five sophomores appointed themselves as the board of directors of a fundraising effort to bring Ralphie to the ’67 Bluebonnet Bowl in Houston, raising the necessary money through selling stock. (Eventually, those who had training in working with a wild animal eventually replaced the sophomores.) Ralphie attended every CU home football game for 13 years (including all bowls), and retired at the end of the 1978 season. CU’s first Ralphie achieved nationally celebrity status, and was even kidnapped in 1970 by some Air Force Academy students as well as being named the school’s 1971 Homecoming Queen at the height of the anti-establishment era. In 1976, The Bank of Boulder and its president Steve Bosley, proposed to Crowder they would do a fundraiser to send Ralphie I to the Orange Bowl Game with Ohio State.

16 When a reporter asked Bosley how Ralphie would travel to Miami, he explained that the information was top secret since CU was concerned that Ohio State students would try to kidnap (or “buffalo-nap”) Ralphie. The story of the potential “buffalo-napping” made newspapers nationwide, featuring a picture of Ralphie in full charge with her handlers. The story stimulated over $25,000 in donations. Ralphie’s trip to the Orange Bowl cost $2,500, and the balance was put into a fund for Ralphie’s future care. In 1978, when the original Ralphie became ill, Bosley organized a search for a new buffalo headed by Buddy Hays. Hays discovered a calf named Moon, short for Moonshine, which was owned by Gregg Mackenzie. Bosley, The Bank of Boulder, and bank director Robert Confer bought Moonshine from Mackenzie for $1,000 and donated her to the university. Since “Ralphie” had become the well-known and popular name of the buffalo, then- athletic director Eddie Crowder made it permanent. Ralphie II made her first appearance at CU’s final home game of the 1978 season. At age 12, after serving the Buffs Ralphies IV and V together in November 2007 for 10 years, she passed away on Sept. 19, 1987, following a 31-17 CU win over Stanford. service as caretaker in May 2000.

Independence, 2016 Alamo). He also played a role in the development of quarterback Bernard Jackson, as Hagan’s own skills of blending the run and the pass rubbed off on the Buff junior in his first year as a starter. He had a brief taste of coaching in the spring of 2004 as he subbed as sec- ondary coach when the staff was minus a full-time assistant. Otherwise, he was the defensive technical intern for the ‘04 season, assuming that role in February of that year. It marked the third time he has made the University of Colorado his destination of choice. He starred at quarterback for the Buffaloes between 1988 and 1991, leading the school to its first national championship, and following his professional playing career, returned to CU in the mid-1990s to work as the Alumni C Club Director. Hagan left CU in the spring of 1998 to work as an area sales manager for the Transit Marketing Group. Three months into his new position, he was promoted to Southeast Regional Sales Manager. He remained in that position for over five years until deciding to pursue his dream as a coach and return to his alma mater for the third time. By working as a technical intern, he learned the intricacies of the profession in a hands-on role in his desire to coach; when a temporary vacancy opened on the staff, he was “activated” as a coach to work with the defensive backs and it added to his penchant for the profession. Arguably the best all-around athlete in the history of the CU football program, he was an integral part of CU’s run at two national championships in 1989 and 1990. The Buffs were 11-1 in 1989, losing to Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl, but went 11-1-1 in 1990 with a win over the Irish in an Orange Bowl rematch to give CU its first national title in football.

Letterman Picture

Colorado has 54 lettermen returning for 2019 (53 from the 2018 team, one from 2017); they break down into 27 on offense, 21 on defense and six specialists; the Buffs lose 36 lettermen off the 2018 squad (15 offense/20 defense/1 specialist). CU returns 11 starters from last season (6 offense/5 de- fense), losing 13 (6 offense/7 defense); two players started six games each on offense and defense, so the starter count is based off 12 players instead of the standard 11. The 2018 starters are listed in bold (six or more starts); *—denotes letters earned primarily on special teams. The breakdown: OFFENSE Position Returning (27) Lost (15) WR (x) K.D.
