Colorado Buffaloes program restructuring

Overview

The Colorado Buffaloes football program is undergoing significant restructuring following a 3-9 record in 2025 and a reported 67 percent drop in ESPN television ratings compared to the initial viewership during Deion Sanders’ debut.

To address performance issues, the program has implemented coaching changes, appointing Brennan Marion as offensive coordinator and Chris Marve as a defensive leader. The team is adopting a ‘Go-Go’ offensive scheme designed to utilize RPO concepts and create one-on-one matchups.

Heading into the 2026 season, the roster has been overhauled with over 20 new starters, including former USC quarterback Julian Lewis. Assistant linebackers coach Andre Hart noted the roster features a combination of Power 4 players and high-production athletes from the FCS level. The team's new strategy and roster depth will face an initial test in Week 1 against Georgia Tech.
