Spring Ball Schedule and Depth Chart...Sort of

by Bob_Bell on Mar 5, 2010 9:57 PM MST in Buffaloes Football Season

The alphabetical depth chart has been released for tomorrow - basically it's a fancy look at each position not ranked by depth...i.e. a roster. Nothing surprising in terms of injuries or players out: WR Markques Simas (suspension), DT Nate Bonsu (leg), WR Terdema Ussery (personal reasons), WR/DB Anthony Wright (knee) and DB Steven Hicks (academics). This is the healthiest the Buffs have been in a long time as we enter spring ball. Hopefully it stays that way, Ussery and Simas come back to the team by fall, and Bonsu recovers fully. Bonsu is an important piece to the puzzle in the middle of the Buffs defense. He played very well as a true freshman last year and along with DE Nick Kasa and DE/LB Forrest West, Colorado has a nice young nucleus developing on the defensive line.

Below is the practice schedule:

Date	Practice #	Time	Equipment
March 6th	#1	10:00 am - 12:00 pm	Shorts/Helmets
March 9th	#2	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Shorts/Helmets
March 11th	#3	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads - No Tackle
March 12th	#4	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads
March 15th	#5	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads
March 16th	#6	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads - No Tackle
March 18th	#7	4:00 pm Scrimmage	Pads
March 29th	#8	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads
March 30th	#9	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads
April 1st	#10	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads - No Tackle
April 2nd	#11	4:00 pm Scrimmage	Pads
April 5th	#12	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads
April 6th	#13	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Pads - No Tackle
April 8th	#14	4:00 pm - 6:00 pm	Shorts/Helmets
April 10th	#15	1:30 pm Spring Game	Pads

The location for most of CU's drills will be the practice fields north of Boulder Creek. The spring game and two scrimmages will be held at Folsom Field. If there is inclement weather, practice will be moved to the bubble located by the outdoor practice facilities

Goals for this spring: no injuries, get the offensive line nasty and ready to light people up. The season depends on them in 2010.

As much as I hate to say it

Just don’t have the fire for CU football right now

I’ll probably make it up for the spring game, but last years season and problem with the spring still has a bad taste in my mouth

wo

sorry about that don’t know what happened.

I am a little surprised that Evans didn’t change his number, will be interesting to see #4 TE, but can’t wait to see this kid play. Loved him as a spread option QB and will be interesting to see that athletic ability at TE where we need some bodies bad.

very scary...please be

ready to play Justin Torres and Cordary Clark…

I like how Forrest West gained 10 pounds from last year to get to 255…he is the player I am most excited to see after a full year in the system, I think he is going to light it up for the next three years.
