Overview
- Colorado announced Friday that Sacramento State head coach Brennan Marion will take over as offensive coordinator, installing his pace-driven, run-focused "Go-Go" system.
- Marion replaces Pat Shurmur, who was stripped of play-calling in October and is in the final weeks of his contract after the Buffaloes’ 2025 offensive slide.
- Deion Sanders turns to his third offensive coordinator in three seasons as the program seeks stability and a clear identity on that side of the ball.
- In his lone year at Sacramento State, Marion went 7-5 with an offense that averaged nearly 34 points and 425.6 yards per game, powered by a strong ground attack.
- Marion previously lifted UNLV to a top-15 scoring profile and now inherits highly touted quarterback Julian "Ju Ju" Lewis to pilot Colorado’s schematic overhaul.
