It may be the middle of recruiting season, but like the rest of us, Colorado Buffaloes defensive coordinator Jim Leavitt spent his Memorial Day outside by the pool with a cold one in his hand and a burger on his plate … well, at least that’s what he was doing until he sat everything down in favor of an ever-entertaining belly flop contest!
This was my failure with the Belly Flop contest. Getting into the finals I gave it all. Protected myself too much! pic.twitter.com/l2saqJcp52

Unfortunately, while giving it everything he had, Coach Leavitt still came up just a bit short, and it was a tough pill to swallow.
Apologies to Buff Nation! Failed at winning the Gold in the Belly Flop Contest! Laying there I knew it! pic.twitter.com/C2WDXPyxcp

It’s alright, coach. Just make sure you get that defense up and rolling for the 2016 season!
