Bzdelik Staying, Tolan's First Round A Success

Although probably not a front runner for the Bulls job, Bzdelik announced today that he is not interested in the head coaching vacancy and expressed his commitment to the University of Colorado.

"I am honored that one of the premier organizations in all of sport, the Chicago Bulls, would consider me as a candidate for their head coaching position," the statement said. "However, my staff and I remain deeply committed to re-establishing Colorado basketball as a consistent winner."

This is a major win for the Buffs as a coaching change, especially after a large footprint has already been left on the program by Bzdelik, would have set the program back many years.

Tolan in the Hunt

It is safe to say that the pressure of being the first CU golfer to make it to the NCAA Championships in 6 years didn't effect the Buffs Junior Golfer Derek Tolan. After a relatively late tee time yesterday, Tolan shot himself to a 2 over par 74 which was good enough for 1oth place and only 5 shots off the lead. UCLA's Kevin Chappell is currently in the lead shooting a 3 under 69. We will keep you posted on Tolan's status for the rest of the tournament.
