Battey learned from tough first season coaching Colorado

Evan Battey reflected on his challenging first season as a Colorado Buffaloes assistant coach, marked by a losing record and new responsibilities. He found the experience a learning opportunity. Battey, a former CU standout, faced a 14-21 season, his first experience with significant losing. He now handles tasks like athlete housing and NIL, following the departure of assistant Zach Ruebesam. Battey is returning next season as head coach Tad Boyle seeks to fill staff vacancies. He cited the importance of learning and adapting to the demands of coaching at the Big 12 level.
