Buffs DL Coach Wilson Knows What Success At CU Looks Like

BOULDER — The last time the Colorado Buffaloes won a conference championship game, Chris Wilson was on the sidelines.

The last time the Buffaloes won a bowl game, Wilson was on the sidelines, and the last time Colorado beat two top-10 teams in the same season — you guessed it — Wilson was on the sidelines. (Wilson was also on the sidelines when the Buffaloes beat Nebraska 62-36. We mention that just because it's fun to remember.)

In other words, Wilson was a CU assistant coach the last time the Buffaloes were relevant in the national picture for several seasons in a row — and now, the defensive line coach who worked under Gary Barnett is back in Boulder to coach the same position for Karl Dorrell.
