Damione Lewis' contribution to the Colorado Buffaloes

Although Damione Lewis was with the Colorado Buffaloes for only one season, he had a massive impact on the team as the defensive coordinator.

When he arrived in Boulder, the Buffaloes' defense was struggling. But, with the pairing of himself and Warren Sapp, Colorado's offense became one of the best in the Big 12. This key change contributed to the successful season for the Buffaloes.

Lewis hopes to repeat his success with the Miami Hurricanes, while the Buffaloes will promote Sapp to the defensive coordinator for the 2025 season.
