Buffs' Tomlinson Remembers What Turned Late-Season 2011-12 Slump

Now CU's Director of Player Development, Nate Tomlinson was CU's point guard for the Buffs' 2012 Pac-12 tourney run.

Tomlinson, now the Colorado Buffaloes' Director of Player Development, was the senior point guard on Tad Boyle's 2011-12 team, the group that made history by putting together a four-game championship run in the Pac-12 tournament.
