BOULDER — It is a position that does not always show up in the stat sheet, but one that is quietly becoming more and more of an integral part of the Colorado Buffaloes' offense.
Technically listed as tight end/H-back, the players who man those positions for the Buffs are far more versatile than their title suggests. Their duties include lining up at as many as a half-dozen places in CU's various offensive sets, and the tasks involved can include everything from taking on an offensive tackle as a pass blocker to lining up wide and running a deep pass route to serving as the lead blocker for a tailback in short-yardage situations.
