Power ranking potential offensive coordinator candidates

Colorado is in need of an offensive coordinator

With the recent firing of Darrin Chiaverini, it’s now time for the Colorado Buffaloes to find their next offensive coordinator.

The Buffs have some powerful offensive weapons in Jarek Broussard, Brenden Rice and Brendon Lewis, but now it’s time to find the right coordinator to maximize their talents. Even with this dangerous trio, Colorado’s offense ranked near the bottom of most statistical categories in 2021.

Fortunately, a fresh start awaits. Karl Dorrell has favored a run-first style offense and it will be interesting to see how this factors into his coaching search. Brian Howell of BuffZone rendered these names on Monday, and here’s who I believe the top five overall candidates currently are.
