Championship mentality growing within CU Buffs

A championship mentality is growing within the #cubuffs football program

The Colorado football team went 1-11 last year. However, despite that, the Buffs are certainly catching everybody’s attention with Deion Sanders’ brand new roster and coaching staff.

Shane Cokes, who transferred from Dartmouth and has been performing well so far in Boulder, talked about CU’s goals in a recent article by David Ubben of The Athletic (subscription required):

“Championship, that’s our goal,” Cokes told The Athletic. “That’s what we want to reach for our first year, no matter what. We’re all working together to reach that common goal, and it comes from the top down, having Coach Prime’s idea in mind of winning that championship. It’s not a bounce-back year, go 6-6.”

It’s a bold goal, but that is the type of confidence and drive that Coach Prime is bringing to this program. If the Buffs make a bowl game in 2023, that would be considered a success to many people, but the players and coaches apparently have their eyes set on greater heights.
