Five-Star Recruit
Right off the bat, let's get 2 things straight:
1. Yes, I am an alum of the University of Colorado.
2. No, I'm not here solely for the purpose of bothering you Husker folks, nor am I going to pepper your boards with an army of posts that start and end with "AHAHAHAHA" and are written entirely in caps lock.
Now that we've gotten those two points clear, one of my fellow Buffaloes on netbuffs.com (username Euclid, to give credit where credit is due) has done some digging around in the archives of the Chicago Tribune and found a pretty interesting tidbit on Bill Callahan's past. Maybe some of you folks were aware of this info, but I certainly wasn't, so I thought I'd pass it on... enjoy, or don't enjoy... really, just do whatever you want with this:
“According to the 11/12/1993 Chicago Tribune, the Big Ten Conference has "taken action" against a Wisconsin Badger coach who was caught snooping in an Illinois private booth at the Illinois-Purdue game played in West Lafayette on 10/2.
Bill Callahan, the Badger's offensive line coach, was sent by Wisconsin to scout the game since they had the week off. Callahan was sitting in the open press box during the game. The Illini had a private booth on the same level where they had their game plans, playbooks, communication equipment for talking to the on-field coaches, etc. After the game, the Illini coaches left the booth to go to the locker room. Callahan was discovered rummaging through the Illini material by a student manager who walked into the booth and asked him to leave. This does not directly violate any NCAA rules other than being highly unethical. Neither the Illini nor the Badgers had any comment.”
So that's it. I'm sure I'll see a few of you in November, but until then do your best to knock off the Jayhawks when you get the chance... the city of Boulder would certainly appreciate it (of course, somehow I doubt you guys are too interested in doing favors for the city of Boulder... oh well, it was worth a shot).
