A day after the Colorado State Rams made what many considered an anticlimactic hire for their new football coach, the little brother in Greeley, the University of Northern Colorado, has made waves with a big name hire.
Former Denver Broncos great Ed McCaffrey will be the new head coach of the Bears.
The 2-time Super Bowl champ, McCaffrey, posted the following to Instagram on Thursday:
"Thank you Valor Christian High School for all the wonderful memories you helped create for me and my family. Especially the last two years where I was blessed to coach some of the smartest and hardest working young men in the country. I'm so proud of our players and the amazing coaching staff who joined me for the past two years. I am very excited to bring the same passion to this new opportunity with the UNC Bears."
