"Eureka!" No, not the company that produces high quality vacuum cleaners but rather the expression derived from the Greek mathematician Archimedes meaning "I have found it!". An exclamation that accompanies some sort of discovery, like when James W. Marshall struck gold at Sutter's Mill in 1848 leading to the California Gold Rush.
The Colorado football program struck gold when they hired defensive coordinator Jim Leavitt. In just his second season in Boulder, the 59-year old former South Florida head coach has turned the Buffs defense into one of the best in the nation. Leavitt's defense shined in the Buffs 27-22 win over rival Utah on senior night, and now the team picked to finish last in their division are Pac-12 South Champions and trekking to Santa Clara, California to play for the conference championship.
