As CU football launches its season, the school is wrestling with how to pay its athletes

The House v. NCAA settlement which took effect in July allows schools to revenue share with student athletes in exchange for their name, image and likeness.

Peter Curtis has been a fan of the University of Colorado Buffaloes since he was 8. He was 12 when the team won its first, and only, national championship in 1991.

“I remember that game vividly, and I remember just the elation of kids in our neighborhood that were just screaming and running around outside after the game ended,” said Curtis, who grew up in Littleton. “My hands were tied. I was a Buff immediately after that for life.”
