Travis Hunter - English
The Colorado Buffaloes football team is undergoing a significant restructuring for the 2025 season, with several notable departures. After just one season with the Buffs, running back Isaiah Augustave has left the team, a move confirmed following the release of the spring 2025 roster. Augustave, who led the team in rushing with 384 yards on 85 carries last season, is no longer part of Coach Deion Sanders‘ plans. This news comes at a time when other key players, such as Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, are expected to declare for the NFL Draft, leaving the Buffaloes without some of their most important assets for the upcoming season.
Augustave’s departure is particularly significant, as, alongside the exit of other key figures like wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter and quarterback Shedeur Sanders, it creates considerable gaps in both the offense and defense. These departures contribute to the uncertainty surrounding Colorado’s roster, which also sees new coaching staff additions, such as Marshall Faulk, who has been hired as running backs coach. Faulk replaced Gary “Flea” Harrell, who now coaches running backs at Wyoming. While Augustave participated in early spring practices, he has not been seen in recent team videos, signaling that his departure was imminent.

Rebuilding the ground game
Isaiah Augustave’s departure leaves Colorado with a vacant running back position, presenting new challenges for Coach Deion Sanders and his staff. Currently, the roster includes three scholarship running backs: Charlie Offerdahl, Dallan Hayden, and Brandon Hood. Of these, Offerdahl and Hood joined as walk-ons, while Hayden has prior experience at Ohio State. This situation increases the urgency for Marshall Faulk, the new running backs coach, to quickly find solutions to strengthen this critical position.
Faulk, who has already emphasized his focus on constant improvement, expressed earlier this spring, “If you’re not trying to get better, you’re getting worse.” While the team boasts prominent figures like Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, who will be key players in the NFL, Faulk is clear that the priority will be to improve all aspects of the game, particularly the ground game. His philosophy of striving for continuous improvement, even when already among the best, will be vital for overcoming the challenges the team will face without its stars.
A new era for Colorado
The restructuring at Colorado is not limited to player departures but also involves a shift in expectations for the 2025 season. In addition to Augustave’s exit, other players like tight end Sam Hart and safety Savion Riley are notably absent from the spring roster, which may suggest they are exploring opportunities in the transfer portal. This situation leaves the Buffaloes facing more uncertainties heading into the near future.
New offensive line coach Gunnar White also emphasized the importance of a strong ground game for the team’s success in the upcoming season. “We have to run the ball. That’s non-negotiable,” White stated. While Colorado will feature key figures like Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter, the challenge will be for the team to maintain offensive balance, especially as the roster continues to adapt and rebuild following the loss of several star players.

KOMENTÁŘ: Zafeirisův odchod ze Slavie jako win-win situace? Spíš ne
„Zafi si se Slavií zahraje Ligu mistrů, od ledna pak za PAOK. Nalezli jsme řešení, výhodné pro všechny strany,“ vyťukal na svůj profil na síti X slávistický boss Jaroslav Tvrdík.Jenže s tím se dá docela lehce polemizovat, skoro až nesouhlasit.Následovat mohou dva scénáře.Zafeiris rozhodně není žádný salámista, takže klidně může půlrok ve Slavii odehrát na top úrovni. Což by sportovně bylo pro klub terno, třeba by se odrazil za dalším titulem a postupem do jarní části Ligy mistrů.I to by ale přineslo, respektive mohlo přinést řadu úskalí.Jednak by se Zafeiris ukázal v nejprestižnější klubové soutěži na planetě, čímž by stoupla jeho hodnota. Třeba i o pár milionů euro. To je Slavii k ničemu, protože už nyní se dohodla na přestupové částce.

Jornal espanhol destaca estreia de Almada, ex-Botafogo, como ‘novo líder’ do Atlético de Madrid: ‘Cérebro’
“O revés em Cornellà desmoronou o Atleti, mas, além da decepção da derrota, a partida também rendeu resultados positivos. Almada, por exemplo. Uma estreia com a chegada de um novo líder para o time da casa”, escreveu a publicação. Titular logo em sua primeira partida, Almada se movimentou pelo setor ofensivo, trocando posições com Baena e participando de triangulações com Julián. Sua presença foi vista como fundamental para manter o Espanyol longe do gol de Oblak. “Em plena organização, cuidou de tudo: movimentar, passar, oferecer, apontar, girar, fintar, abrir...”, destacou o jornal. Os números reforçam a atuação convincente: 54 passes certos em 58 tentados (93% de acerto), sendo 20 no terço final do campo; quatro duelos vencidos em quatro disputados; e cinco recuperações de bola. Após sua saída de campo, o Atlético perdeu intensidade e deixou de repetir as boas […]
Kajakář Dostál na MS suverénně vyhrál rozjížďku na 500 metrů
Do semifinále z rozjížděk postoupilo i všech pět dalších českých lodí včetně stříbrného deblkajaku z ME Jakuba Špicara a Daniela Havla. Ten skončil v rozjížďce pětistovky čtvrtý se ztrátou 2,61 sekundy na vítězné Portugalce. V téže disciplíně uspěly také Kateřina Zárubová se Štěpánkou Sobíškovou. Na deblkánoi si v závodě na 500 metrů zajistili semifinále Petr Tettinger a Jiří Minařík, kteří nahradili posádku bratrů Martina a Petra Fuksových. Na dvoustovce postoupily kanoistka Denisa Řáhová i kajakářka Barbora Sovová.Olympijský vítěz Dostál se na pětistovce, která mu přinesla bronz na červnovém ME, cítil lépe než ve středu v rozjížďce kilometru. „Já mám tu trať radši. Nechal jsem se trochu vybláznit Litevcem, začali jsme hodně rychle, ale cíl už byl pak kontrolovaný,“ řekl v nahrávce pro média. Na trati se vyhýbal travám, které ve vodě rostou. „Měl jsme tam opravdu velké koláče. Dojel jsem do cíle s brzdou, protože jsem dva, sice menší šlahouny, ale chytil, což by se […]

Patrick Corbin, Rangers eye series split against Royals

Credit: Nick Turchiaro-Imagn Images If the Texas Rangers are to manage a split of their four-game series in Kansas City, Patrick Corbin likely must end his recent struggles. Following a much-needed victory, the Rangers will aim for their first two-game winning streak in more than two weeks as they face former teammate Michael Lorenzen on Thursday. While both teams are outside of the American League wild-card positions, Kansas City is just 2 1/2 games behind of the final spot, with Texas 2 1/2 back of the Royals. However, the Rangers should have momentum after they rallied to snap Kansas City's five-game winning streak with 6-3 win on Wednesday. Down 3-1 after […]
