Several items were taken from Colorado’s locker room at Rose Bowl Stadium at some point during the Buffaloes’ matchup with the UCLA Bruins last month. The Buffaloes dropped to 4-4 on the season after that loss to UCLA and it seems they took another loss at the hands of potential future players of the program.
About two weeks later and things are starting to become clear, Pasadena police confirmed that the items were stolen by high school recruits who were on an official visit to UCLA.
The names of the thieves have not been made public.
According to On3, the players are believed to attend Beaumont High School in Riverside County.
Colorado players who had items stolen include Jordan Domineck, Derrick McLendon, and Cam’Ron Silmon-Craig. Jewelry and cash were reported as missing following the game.

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders suggested that Rose Bowl Stadium operators should reimburse the athletes. Coach Sanders also called on the NCAA to take action.
Aside from stolen items, CU dropped a fourth straight tilt and are now 1-4 in its last five games decided by seven points or fewer. This dream season has turned into quite the nightmare.
