Tad Wedel is beginning his third season as Colorado's Creative Recruiting and Media Coordinator in 2019-20.
CU went 15-16 in Wedel’s first season in 2017-18. The Buffs were a young squad, with eight newcomers and just two seniors. The Buffs breezed through non-conference play, finishing 9-2 with a win over No. 24 Miami (Fla.) and a Rocky Mountain Hoops Classic championship.
After a slow stretch in Pac-12 play, the Buffs finished the season strong, going 3-3 over their final six games, including facing two top-25 opponents. CU topped Utah in the first round of the Pac-12 Tournament before bowing out to top seed and eventual champion Oregon.
Kennedy Leonard was named first-team All-Pac-12 and was selected to the honorable mention for the Pac-12 All-Defensive Team. She also broke CU’s single-season assists record. Annika Jank earned Pac-12 Freshman of the Week honors three times, the most for a Buff since Arielle Roberson won it five times in 2012-13. She was also an honorable mention selection to the Pac-12 All-Freshman Team.
Wedel’s position of Creative Recruiting and Media Coordinator primarily consists of helping in the area of recruiting by creating graphics and videos for social media. He utilizes his innovative skills to develop creative recruiting pieces that enhance the entire Buffs recruiting process. Wedel also serves as the team's video coordinator.
He joined the Buffs after spending two seasons at Tulsa as the women’s basketball video coordinator. In that position, he broke down film for players and coaches, oversaw scouting services, and created recruiting graphics and videos for social media platforms. Prior to his time at Tulsa, he served as a student manager with the Kansas women’s basketball program.
Wedel, a native of Canton, Kansas, earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Kansas in 2015 in health/physical education.
