"This is a dream come true," Embree said. "When I stepped on the field for my first spring practice here as a volunteer coach (in 1991), I started to envision what it would be like to come back one day and be the head coach of this great university. It’s truly a privilege when you have the opportunity to become head coach at your alma mater. "I’m extremely excited to meet the players, get with those guys and begin the process of putting the luster back to the program. For whatever reason or reasons, the program just hasn’t been representative of all it can be for the last several years. But Colorado has a great tradition and with the staff I believe I can assemble, our aim will be to restore the program to national prominence."
