And, boy, he was close to toppling the high-rise appartatus.
During games Bieniemy will be up in the booth calling the plays. In his coaching career he has alwasy been a sideline guy but he got his first taste of the eagle-eye view at the scrimmage. He was a little kid violently shaking a Snow-Globe from his lofty perch.
(And don't think the BuffVision camera guy joining Bieniemy in the crows-nest was enjoying the quaking ride over 40 feet about ground.)
Jon Embree appointed his former Buff teammate as the offensive coordinator to change a mentality in the Colorado program. His intense nature will only supplement the direction Embree wishes to see CU headed. Bieniemy, and Embree have said countless times they are going to be more ‘physical’.
But that was not the case in Saturday’s scrimmage at the lower practice fields in Boulder. What several hundred Buff faithful saw that day was not what ‘Garcia’ the Beanie Babies bear would call “physical” play.
Bieniemy will be in the booth for the first couple games. He’s not going to stay there.
Like a Mentos and Diet Coke experiment gone bad, Bieniemy isn’t going to be contained in that little box screaming into a, soon to be, batter and bruised headset.
He will be on the field before long. It’s going to happen.
