DL coach Jim Jeffcoat won't remain on Buffs' staff

Spring football is just about five weeks away for Colorado, but a top priority for the Buffaloes at this point is filling two vacancies on their coaching staff.

On Tuesday, CU and all Football Bowl Subdivision teams were allowed to begin hiring a 10th assistant coach. Meanwhile, a source has confirmed to BuffZone.com that defensive line coach Jim Jeffcoat will not remain with the staff for the upcoming season.

Jeffcoat, 56, has been with the Buffs for the past five seasons and with MacIntyre for the past seven years.

MacIntyre originally hired Jeffcoat to coach the defensive line at San Jose State in 2011 and they were together with the Spartans for two seasons before coming to Boulder in 2013.
