Colorado Football: Elevate Together | Built In Boulder Ep. 2

Описание: Go behind the scenes in the latest episode of Built in Boulder presented by Colorado Football as the Buffaloes continue their offseason grind inside the Champions Center and the Ford Practice Facility, building toward the 2026 college football season with purpose, competition, and one clear priority.

The episode opens with Coach Prime, addressing the team in a full squad meeting and setting the tone for everything that follows. The message is clear, every lift, every rep, every meeting is about one thing. To win.

From there, the energy shifts to Competition Day, as Coach Andreu Swasey facilitates a full team battle between offense and defense inside the Ford Practice Facility. Iron sharpens iron and this time, the offense takes the win. You’ll hear friendly fiery banter from highly touted commit Preston Ashley (be sure to check out his Behind the Buffs episode), plus vocal moments from Joseph Williams and Quincy Williams as the competitive edge comes alive.

Transfer safety Naeten Mitchell (New Mexico State) shares a quick soundbite on embracing competition, while transfer wide receiver DeAndre Moore (Texas) puts on a show with an impressive medicine ball toss that sparks the offense. Chauncey Gooden and Samu Taumanupepe even have a quick moment with the camera before squaring off in a tug-of-war battle between offense and defense.

The episode also introduces key members of the Colorado Football support staff who are essential to the program’s development.

Assistant Director of Football Nutrition Ellie Spencer gives an in depth look at how fueling performance impacts offseason body transformation and overall player development. She walks through daily meal preparation, group education sessions, individual consultations, and how she coordinates all nutrition logistics for away game travel. Working closely with Coach Swasey, her mission is to help players reach peak body composition while educating them on how to sustain performance long term.

Coach Swasey delivers a powerful moment during a lift, reminding players that the standard he demands is rooted in experience and results.

We also meet George Hegamin, Assistant Offensive Line Coach & Director of Leadership and Engagement. Hegamin explains how understanding a player’s “why” is critical to earning trust and maximizing performance. He highlights emerging leadership from Bo Hughley and reflects on how he sees pieces of his own journey in the next generation, including offensive lineman Larry Johnson. For Hegamin, the offensive line must operate as one unit, because success up front is built on unity, accountability, and connection.

At the Champions Center, Coach Prime hosts the team to watch the Super Bowl matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots, reinforcing brotherhood, culture, and shared experiences beyond football.

The episode closes with a defining leadership moment. Coach Prime gathers the 15 hardest workers in practice and challenges them to share their “why.” Each player is tasked with bringing another teammate along, because leadership isn’t individual. It’s about elevating together. Coach Prime has a direct conversation with transfer wide receiver Danny Scudero, emphasizing that his prior production carries influence and that influence must be used to raise the entire receiver room.

Return for the next episode as the Buffs continue their offseason journey, building leaders, sharpening competition, and laying the foundation for 2026.
