Spruce Gets Congratulatory Message From Westbrook
Nelson Spruce now owns the all-time CU receiving yardage mark. By CUBuffs.comBOULDER — Colorado wide receiver Nelson Spruce had a pleasant surprise when he checked his phone late Saturday night.
Among the congratulatory text messages was one from former CU great Michael Westbrook — whose record for all-time receiving yards Spruce broke Saturday afternoon.
“It’s not something I expected at all,” Spruce said after Sunday evening’s practice. “Anytime those legends of the programs reach out to you, it’s really special. I’m glad he took the time to do that.”
