BOULDER, CO – November 28, 2020: Christian Gonzalez, of CU, plays defense on Jesse Matthews, of SDSU, during the Colorado San Diego State game at Folsom Field in Boulder on November 28, 2020. (Cliff Grassmick/Staff Photographer) As soon as Colorado coaches named Christian Gonzalez a starter, he knew he needed to be ready. Opposing quarterbacks like testing true freshmen playing at cornerback. “I knew that was going to happen coming in, especially if I was playing early,” said Gonzalez, a 6-foot-2, 200-pound corner who has started all three games for the Buffs (3-0, 2-0 Pac-12).

    Denver Post, Monday - 04/15/2024 - 09:47 PM
