Tad Boyle optimistic after disappointing end to CU Buffs’ promising season and roster in flux

A couple weeks after a promising season ended as disappointingly as it did abruptly, coach Tad Boyle remains optimistic about where the Buffs basketball program can go from here.

CU was 21-11 and a lock to make the NCAA Tournament, which would’ve been the program’s fifth dance in 10 years under Boyle. That was despite ending the season on a five-game skid, which culminated with losing in the first round of the Pac-12 tournament before that and March Madness were canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“I want our players to understand that they did some really good things this year, even though certainly the season didn’t end the way we wanted,” Boyle said.
