Previous: Run Through the Colorado Roster
No. 69 - Mo Bandi
6-foot-5, 270-pounds
Offensive Lineman
Redshirt Freshman
Longmont, Colo.
Niwot H.S.
Bandi joined the team last year as a walk on but enrolled at Colorado in 2015. Bandi took a redshirt season but did dress for the Colorado State game last year.
No. 68 - Gerrad Kough
6-foot-4, 295-pounds
Offensive Lineman
Redshirt Senior
Pomona, Calif.
Pomona H.S.
As a former two-star recruit, Kough has certainly exceeded expectations as he started a couple of games as a redshirt freshman and was a staple on the CU offensive line the past two seasons. Kough was the Buffs' starting left guard all season in 2016 before sitting out the last three games with an ankle injury. Kough missed the spring game as he was recovering from his ankle injury.
No. 65 - Colby Pursell
6-foot-4, 290-pounds
Offensive Lineman
Freshman
Valencia, Calif.
Hart H.S.
Pursell was a grayshirt signee for the Buffs in the class of 2016, and he arrived in Boulder in January. He was listed as the backup center to Jonathan Huckins on the CU spring game depth chart.
No. 64 - Aaron Haigler
6-foot-7, 270-pounds
Offensive Lineman
Redshirt Sophomore
Northridge, Calif.
Notre Dame H.S.
Haigler missed a couple of games last year due to a knee injury, but he started in six games at right tackle as a redshirt freshman. Haigler will likely start at right tackle this fall, and he started at RT in the spring game.
No. 63 - J.T. Bale
6-foot-2, 205-pounds
Long Snapper
Redshirt Sophomore
La Mirada, Calif.
La Mirada H.S.
Bale walked on to Colorado in 2015 and redshirted as a freshman. He started as the Buffs' long snapper and field goals/PAT snapper and played every snap in that role. He will have that role once again in 2017.
